Board approves consent agenda, OCSBA bylaw/resolution changes and schedules closed session; amendment to agenda passes

The Bloomfield Hills Schools Board of Education recorded multiple procedural votes at its May 19 study session.

Amendment to agenda: Trustees voted to amend the agenda to move the previously scheduled closed-session item (labeled 10a) into item 2e earlier in the meeting so the closed session could take place before the 7:30 reconvening. The amendment passed on a voice vote 4-0.

Consent agenda: Trustee Noble moved that the board "approve the recommendations detailed in the consent agenda as presented." The motion carried 4-0.

Oakland County School Boards Association bylaws and resolutions: The board approved proposed amendments to the Oakland County School Boards Association bylaws and a separate motion to approve new and revised OCSBA resolutions. Both motions passed unanimously (4-0). Trustees noted there were no material changes in the materials provided and there was no extended debate.

Closed session: The board voted to convene a closed session in accordance with MCL 15.268, section 8(a), "to discuss the evaluation of the superintendent." The board took the required majority vote to enter closed session, which passed 4-0.

Vote tallies in the public record indicated four in favor, zero opposed for the motions recorded above. The transcript does not provide a roll-call listing of individual yes/no votes for each item in all cases; the public minutes or the official roll call recorded in the district's minute book should be consulted for member-level vote records.

No policy ordinances, ordinances first/second readings, or fiscal appropriations requiring separate publication were adopted during the meeting beyond consent-agenda items that the board approved.
