At a reorganization meeting, the Neshaminy School District board elected John Allen as temporary president, approved a member surnamed Sullivan as board president and selected Ms. Hollenbeck as vice president. All motions carried by voice votes recorded as 8 to 0.
The meeting opened as the district’s annual reorganization session, and the presiding officer asked for nominations for a temporary president. An unidentified board member nominated John Allen; following a motion to close nominations and a second, the board voted in favor of Allen as temporary president, with the clerk announcing the motion passed 8 to 0.
Later in the reorganization sequence the floor was opened for nominations for board president. The board closed nominations and approved the appointment of a member with the surname Sullivan by an 8-0 vote. The transcript includes inconsistent first-name references to that Sullivan in different segments; the record indicates only the surname with a successful vote.
For vice president, a board member nominated Ms. Hollenbeck. After the motion to close nominations and a second, the board approved Hollenbeck as vice president for the coming year; the vote was recorded as 8 to 0.
The reorganization votes were procedural and unanimous; no contentious debate or amendments to those officer appointments were recorded in the public meeting. The board then proceeded to open the public meeting and conduct roll call.
