Summary
Board members voted to table a memorandum of understanding for a new video board at THS, asking staff to revise the MOU so its exclusive-sponsorship language mirrors an existing agreement used at LHS.
The board voted to table an MOU for a proposed video board at THS after trustees raised concerns that the draft contained exclusive-sponsorship language that would prevent the school from retaining other sponsors.
Why it matters: the MOU would govern sponsorship rights and revenue opportunities tied to a high-school video board; trustees said language inconsistent with a previous LHS agreement could curtail local sponsorship flexibility.
A trustee explained that the district had previously revised the LHS agreement to allow the school to retain rights to other sponsors and recommended the THS MOU be reworded to match the LHS arrangement. The board moved to table the THS MOU until the language is parallel to the existing LHS agreement.
Ending: The motion to table carried. Staff were directed to return the THS video-board MOU with revised exclusive-rights language consistent with the LHS agreement.
