12.A. CDA (Local) Investments
State law requires the board to review its investment policy and investment strategies not less than annually, Check your CDA(Local) to be sure all provisions are still accurate.

12.B. CNA(Local) Student Transportation
If your district seeks or wishes to seek funding for transportation of students who live within two miles of their campus and would be subject to hazardous conditions or area presenting a high risk of violence if they walked to school, be sure that your CNA(Local) reflects this decision.  The board must approve a resolution, to be updated and renewed annually, that (1)defines the hazardous traffic conditions that are applicable to the district and exist within two miles of its campuses, and (2) identifies the specific hazardous areas within the district that contain these hazardous traffic conditions and for which funding is requested.  For districts seeking funding for the transportation of students in an area presenting a high risk of violence, the resolution must outline specific areas as reflected in consolidated law enforcement records that document violent crimes identified by reporting agencies within the relevant jurisdiction, and the records should be attached to the resolution.  Sample resolutions can be found in the TASB Regulations Resource Manual, available in the Policy Service Resource Library on myTASB.  If your district's current policy does not match current practice, please contact your policy consultant to revise this policy.

12.C. CO(Local) Food Services Management
As part of Update 109, this local policy was revised in accordance with Senate Bill 1566 (85th Regular Legislative Session, 2017) requiring the board to specify the length of the grace period during which a student whose meal card or account balance was exhausted could continue to purchase meals. Contact your policy consultant if the grace period in CO(Local) does not match the grace period established by the board or if your CO(Local) includes provisions on meal charges, but all campuses in your district currently participate in the Community Eligibility Provision 2 Program under which free meals are provided to all students.
