Summary
House Joint Resolution No. 164, introduced in February 2016, serves as a resolution to confirm the nomination of John M. Romanow from Stamford to be reappointed as a member of the Education Arbitration Board. This board typically addresses disputes between local and regional boards of education, providing a process for arbitration that is critical to maintaining functional relationships within the educational governance structure. The resolution confirms Romanow's continued role on the board, which plays a significant part in educational policy and conflict resolution throughout the state.
