The Oroville City Elementary School District (OCESD) is transitioning the way its Board of Trustees is elected. Currently, the five trustees are elected “at-large”, meaning all voters in the District vote for all seats on the Board. After this process, the Board election will change to a “by-trustee area” system where the District is divided into five trustee areas with approximately the same population, and the voters in each area will elect a single trustee to the Board. Only the residents of a trustee area will be able to vote for that seat, and the candidates must live in the trustee area.
