APPOINTMENTS AND PRESENTATIONS 2.1 Superintendent Tim Justus,Los Altos School District Superintendent Tim Justus, Los Altos School District, addressed Council. He explained that his appearance before the City Council had a two fold purpose: to introduce himself and to acquaint Council with the projects the District had slated for the coming year. He offered that an issue that was most relevant to Los Altos Hills' residents was the District's interest in reopening a regular K-6 school at the Bullis School site. Justus noted that the expectation was to have a K-6 school operating at Bullis by the 2008-2009 school year. Justus reviewed the elements that had guided the District in their new approach to the Bullis site that included: new District administration; majority of School District Board members are newly elected including one Los Altos Hills resident and a review of the history of the school's closure. Justus suggested that when campuses are closed, a date for re-opening the school should be considered. • 1 City Council Meeting Agenda January 12,2006
