What is a “Region”?
• The AB86 Work Group has recognized the need to define “Region” • • • For the purpose of planning we are using the bill language which defines region as the geographic boundaries of community college districts.
72 Community College District Boundaries Boundaries are used for the purpose of defining a consortia geographical area and NOT to define leadership roles within consortiums.
