Natchitoches Parish School Board postpones Oct. 16 meeting after no quorum
Summary
The Natchitoches Parish School Board postponed its Oct. 16 agenda to the November meeting after the body failed to reach a quorum and waited five minutes for additional members to arrive.
The Natchitoches Parish School Board on Oct. 16 postponed its agenda to the November meeting after the body failed to reach a quorum, the presiding official said.
"At this moment, at the time of the gavel, we do not have a quorum present, so we will wait 5 minutes to see if other members are able to arrive," the presiding official said at the start of the meeting. The official later told those present that the agenda would be moved to the November meeting.
Board members and staff waited the five minutes called for on the record. Miss Revels performed a roll call during the brief session; members responded "Present" when called. The presiding official thanked board members for their service and apologized to the public for the delay, saying the agenda was "mostly light" and therefore would be rescheduled for November.
No substantive business, votes, or motions were conducted or recorded during the Oct. 16 meeting. The board did not take formal action on any agenda items; the transcript indicates only that the agenda will be moved to the next meeting in November and that the body reconvened then (date not specified in the transcript).
The brief meeting lasted only minutes and focused entirely on confirming attendance and the decision to postpone. Any items that had been on the Oct. 16 agenda will be considered at the November meeting, according to the presiding official.
