Board approves annual meeting-notice resolution and reschedules February meeting; revised budget review delayed
Summary
The board approved the annual meeting-notice resolution, carried the consent agenda, and rescheduled the February regular meeting to Jan. 29, 2025; staff said a revised 2024-25 budget will be returned at a later meeting after new state figures were received.
The Woodland Park School District RE-2 board approved routine administrative items at the meeting, including the annual notification of meeting place, carried the consent agenda, and rescheduled the February regular meeting to Jan. 29, 2025.
On the annual meeting-notice resolution, the board read a resolution referencing the Colorado Sunshine Act (CRS 24-6-402(2)) requiring public notice and designated that notices "will be posted on the district website as well as on the bulletin board in the entryway of the administration building at 155 Panther Way, Woodland Park, Colorado." A motion to approve the resolution was moved, seconded and received a roll-call vote recorded as ayes by Ridley, Bates, Kimbrell, Patterson and others; the transcript states "Motion carries."
The consent agenda was moved, seconded and approved by roll call earlier in the meeting; the transcript records the chair calling the roll and the motion "carries."
Finance staff advised the board that a revised 2024-25 budget resolution would not be presented that evening because updated information from the Colorado Department of Education had arrived only recently; the finance director said the updated information increased anticipated revenue and would require a further revision to the budget, which staff will return with at the next board meeting.
The board voted to reschedule the February regular board meeting to Jan. 29, 2025, citing multiple board members' unavailability through February. The roll call on the date change recorded ayes from Hartley, Bates, Kimbrell, Henderson, and Roster Holtz; the transcript reports the motion carried.
The board also discussed a district decision to consider participating in the state treasurer's interest-free loan program; staff said updated budget figures affect cash flow and the interest-free program decision and that a formal resolution on that participation would be presented at a subsequent meeting.
Votes at a glance: consent agenda — approved (roll call recorded; "Motion carries"); meeting-notice resolution — approved (roll call; "Motion carries"); reschedule February meeting to Jan. 29, 2025 — approved (roll call; "Motion carries").
What happens next: staff will bring an amended budget for board consideration after reconciling the Department of Education's updated figures and will present any required resolutions on participation in the state treasurer's loan program at a future meeting.
