At the Sept. 16 meeting the Little Miami Board considered whether Policy 131 should require more than the current minimum of three affirmative votes to adopt or amend board policy.

Board members noted recent, rapid legislative changes and large volumes of new state requirements, but most concluded that raising the internal threshold could make the board less able to respond. After discussion the board agreed to leave the language as written, keeping the three-vote threshold in place so policies with a first read can move to a second read under the current rule.

Ending: The board left Policy 131 unchanged at the meeting and authorized the policy to proceed to second reading where applicable.
