 The Educational Service Unit Board shall delegate to the Unit Administrator the function of specifying required actions and designing the detailed arrangements under which the unit will be operated.

Such rules and detailed arrangements shall constitute the administrative regulations governing the unit. They must be consistent with the policies adopted by the Unit Board.

In the absence of applicable policy, the Unit Administrator is authorized to establish regulations subject to the review by the Unit Board.

New or amended regulations should be codified and placed in the Service Unit online administrative manuals. Copies of new or amended administrative regulations will be presented to the Unit Board members for their information.

Adoption of Administrative Regulations

The Unit Board does not adopt administrative regulations unless specifically required to do so by law or unless requested to do so by the Unit Administrator. Adoption and amendment of such Unit Board-adopted regulations shall be by the same procedure as that specified.

The Unit Board reserves the right to review and require revisions of administrative regulations should the regulations, in the Unit Board’s judgment, be inconsistent with the philosophy of or policies adopted by the Unit Board.
