The 6-0 vote, with board member David Tokofsky abstaining, came at the request of Superintendent Roy Romer Roy R.

 told the board the district could not legally justify firing the five, so he had agreed to undisclosed, unpaid suspensions before the five are given new jobs in the district.

``Part of the punishment is you can't go back to the job you had,'' Romer said later.

But Romer would not divulge further details about the suspensions, citing confidentiality in personnel decisions.

Tokofsky said he couldn't support the decision without better information on the settlements reached with the five officials, such as whether they had agreed to keep silent about the district's failure to complete the pollution-plagued Belmont Learning Center.

Romer said although he couldn't talk about the settlements in public, ``I just want everyone to be sure that there isn't anything that's being covered up here.''

District Inspector General Don Mullinax named the five, along with project manager Rodger Friermuth, who is retired and will not return to the district, in a September 1999 report on Belmont.

The five to be reinstated are: Elizabeth Lourgand, head of the Facilities Management The management of a user's computer installation by an outside organization. All operations including systems, programming and the datacenter can be performed by the facilities management organization on the user's premises.  Division; Robert Niccum, head of the Real Estate and Asset Management Branch; Susie Wong, head of the Environmental Health and Safety Branch; Dianne Doi, deputy director of the same branch; and Richard Lui Richard Lui is a news correspondent for Robin and Company, and occasionally serves as a substitute anchor on CNN and CNN Headline News. He joined CNN in 2005 as a CNN Pipeline anchor and is based in the network's world headquarters in Atlanta. , environmental assessment coordinator of the health and safety branch.

In another decision, the board approved a tax deal resulting from the Nov. 7 passage of Measure Q, which ceded 55 condominiums to the Las Virgenes Unified School District Las Virgenes Unified School District (LVUSD) is a K-12 school district in north-west Los Angeles County, USA consisting of 14 public schools in the cities of Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Westlake Village, and several small portions of the West Hills section of Los Angeles. .

The deal prevents the Las Virgenes district from taking any existing property tax revenues from the 11 acres of the Creekside Calabasas condominium complex.

But the LAUSD LAUSD Los Angeles Unified School District (Los Angeles, CA)  will give up additional tax revenue from increases in property value, which seems to be the most significant change expected from the district change, which is expected to add only one student to the Las Virgenes district next year.
