Bound Brook Board reorganizes leadership, adopts annual resolutions and moves to executive session
Summary
At its reorganization meeting, the Bound Brook Board of Education swore in a newly elected member, chose a president and vice president, approved a package of annual organization resolutions and authorized an executive session under state law.
The Bound Brook Board of Education held a reorganization meeting in which a newly elected member was sworn in, the board elected a president and vice president, approved a slate of annual organization resolutions and voted to enter executive session under New Jersey law.
Newly elected member Lisa Guzzino took the oath of office before the board. "Do solemnly swear or affirm," Guzzino said during the administered oath, after which the board signed the oath forms and acknowledged receipt.
The board then opened nominations for president and vice president. The board nominated and elected Mr. Ginozzi as president; following his election, Mr. Gorski presided over the remainder of the meeting. The board elected Mrs. Lisa Mazzino as vice president. The nominations were put to roll-call votes and the motions carried.
The board approved its annual organization resolutions (items listed as 2 through 25 on the meeting agenda) en bloc on a consent motion. A board member moved the consent resolution and another seconded it; members discussed the published meeting calendar for the year before taking the roll-call vote. A member asked why meeting dates cluster early in the year; staff said the schedule follows historical precedent and is tentative pending the state budget calendar and testing schedules.
Finally, the board approved a motion to enter executive session under the New Jersey statute authorizing closed sessions (NJSA 10:4-11) for the matters noted on the agenda and then recessed into that closed session.
No substantive policy debate, budgetary decisions, contract awards or program changes were discussed in the portions of the meeting captured in the transcript provided. The items recorded were organizational and procedural: oath of office, officer elections, adoption of annual resolutions and authorization of an executive session.
