The Pasadena City Clerk’s Office issued the Notice of Election for the March 10, 2015, Primary Nominating Election for the Pasadena City Council and the Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD). The official nomination period for candidates is open from Monday, Nov. 17, 2014, through Friday, Dec. 12, 2014.
Eligible Pasadena, Altadena and Sierra Madre voters will cast their ballots next year to elect local representatives to four-year terms for PUSD Board of Education members representing Districts 2, 4 and 6.
The terms for PUSD Board of Education at-large seats 2, 4 and 6 will expire in May 2015. Following the approval of Measure A on June 5, 2012, the Pasadena Unified School District is now divided into seven geographic sub-district areas which includes Pasadena, Altadena, Sierra Madre, and various unincorporated County pockets outside the City limits. Continuing with the upcoming 2015 Board of Education election, each member will be elected by the voters residing within a specific geographic sub-district within the school district area. The terms for Board of Education sub-districts 2, 4, and 6 are four years. There are no term limit provisions for serving on the PUSD Board of Education.
