Park City School District swears in Susie Gallagher and elects board president, vice president

Susie Gallagher was sworn in as a board member of the Park City School District, and the board elected its president and vice president at a board meeting (date not specified). The meeting record shows voice votes for both officer elections; numerical tallies were not provided.

The swearing-in came after Gallagher stated her name and recited the oath: “I, Susie Gallagher, having been duly appointed to the office of board member in the Park City School District, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Utah, and that I will discharge the duties of my office with fidelity.” The transcript records her repeating portions of the oath and concluding that she would “discharge the duties of my office with fidelity.”

The board then opened nominations for board president. The transcript records a nomination of “Meredith” (the candidate’s surname is recorded inconsistently in the transcript as Rich, Reid and Reed). After the nomination period closed, the chair called for a voice vote: “All in favor, say aye.” Members replied “Aye.” The record does not list individual votes or a numerical tally; the nomination was approved by voice vote according to the meeting record.

The board proceeded to the election of a vice president. Board member Nick Hill identified himself during the proceedings; the board again held a voice vote. The chair asked for all in favor, members said “Aye,” and the transcript records the election proceeding without providing a roll-call or numeric result.

Following the officer elections, a motion to adjourn was made and the meeting was closed. The transcript does not specify the meeting date, the precise vote counts for any election, or whether any formal second was recorded for the nominations.

The actions completed routine leadership organization for the Park City School District board and formalized the oath of a newly appointed member. The meeting record notes the U.S. Constitution and the Utah Constitution as the authorities invoked during the oath but does not cite additional statutes or board bylaws in the excerpt provided.
