Upon approval by a majority of the full membership of the board of education of a cooperative education school district, or upon the receipt of resolutions formally adopted by a majority of the boards of education of the city, local, and exempted village school districts whose territory is in the cooperative education school district, the board of education of the cooperative education school district shall adopt and send to the state board of education a resolution requesting the dissolution of the cooperative education school district. The resolution shall state the reasons for the proposed dissolution, shall set forth a plan for the equitable adjustment, division, and disposition of the assets, property, debts, and obligations of the district among the city, local, and exempted village school districts whose territory is in the district, and shall provide that the tax duplicate of each city, local, and exempted village school district whose territory is in the district shall be bound for and assume its share of the outstanding indebtedness of the cooperative education school district. Upon approval of the resolution by the state board of education, the cooperative education school district shall be dissolved in accordance with the provisions of the resolution.

Terms Used In Ohio Code 3311.54

  • Assets: (1) The property comprising the estate of a deceased person, or (2) the property in a trust account.
  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
  • Property: means real and personal property. See Ohio Code 1.59
  • state: means the state of Ohio. See Ohio Code 1.59

The state board of education shall immediately provide a copy of any approved resolution to the county auditor and the board of elections of each county that had any territory in the dissolved district. Each such county auditor shall thereupon make in accordance with that resolution any changes required in the tax duplicate of each city, local, and exempted village school district whose territory was in the dissolved district.
