The Mountain View Whisman School District Board of Trustees voted on several routine and recognition items at the Nov. 6 meeting. Key outcomes:
- Consent agenda: Approved. Vote recorded: Trustees Conley, Lambert, DeFazio and Henry voted yes; Trustee Reed voted no. A public commenter raised concerns that minutes did not summarize public comments and asked staff to align minutes to board bylaws.
- Resolution to continue state preschool funding (resolution filed for the Nov. 15 application deadline): Approved unanimously.
- Resolution recognizing National Native American Heritage Month: Adopted unanimously; the board performed a choral reading of the resolution text.
- Resolution supporting United Against Hate Week and district activities to promote inclusion: Adopted unanimously; the board committed to district programming to operationalize the resolution.
- Vendor list update: The board approved an updated vendor list and removed the CHAC Council from the approved vendor list.
Votes on these items were routine and passed without further amendments at the meeting. Public comment accompanying the consent item included a request that minutes record a short description of each public comment rather than only the speaker's name; a trustee noted the historical practice of including a one-line summary of comment topics in minutes.
