At the meeting trustees voted to approve the presented bills, certified and alternative staffing recommendations, emergency certification hire, and policy bundles in the 1,000s, 3,000s and select 4,000s items; motions passed without recorded opposition.
The Emmett Independent District board took a series of formal votes at the meeting, approving routine bills and multiple personnel and policy items.
Bills and payments: Trustees moved and seconded a motion to approve the bills presented for payment; the board voted in favor with no recorded opposition.
