4 Capo Unified trustees are asked to quit by GOP
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
The Republican Party of Orange County has called on four Capistrano Unified School District trustees to resign, officials said Tuesday.
The request, aimed at longtime trustees Marlene M. Draper, Sheila J. Benecke, Duane E. Stiff and Mike Darnold, comes after a report unsealed by the Orange County district attorney’s office last week indicated that the four, plus three former trustees, had routinely violated the state’s open-meeting law.
The seven-member school board is expected to discuss the issue during a closed-session meeting Monday.
