Board approves SCDOT land sale, authorizes interim superintendent to propose revised district office chart
Summary
In executive session the board approved sale of 0.02 acres to SCDOT for $4,000 and authorized interim superintendent Dr. J.A. Jones to present a revised district office organizational chart aligned with pending financial analysis.
After a closed executive session on Feb. 11 covering contractual, legal and real‑estate matters, the Rock Hill School District Board of Trustees approved two formal motions when the meeting returned to open session.
First, trustees approved the sale of 0.02 acres at tax map parcel 603‑02‑01‑005 on Robertson Road to the South Carolina Department of Transportation for $4,000. The motion was seconded by Trustee Daniel and carried with six affirmative votes and one exception noted by the chair; the record shows the motion carried but does not specify which member was absent or abstained.
Second, the board unanimously authorized interim superintendent Dr. J.A. Jones to prepare and present a recommended revision to the district office organizational chart for board approval, consistent with board policy BDD and contingent on results of a pending financial analysis. Trustees said the interim superintendent has the board's support to re‑examine district finances and administrative structure and return with a formal recommendation.
Why it matters The land sale is a routine real‑estate transaction with limited fiscal impact but required board approval because the parcel is district property. By empowering Dr. Jones to propose an organizational chart tied to a financial review, the board signaled a willingness to consider structural changes at the district office that could affect staffing, budgets and administrative responsibilities.
