The Molalla River School District (Molalla River SD 35) board voted Oct. 30 to direct district administration to engage with city officials on a matter involving real estate, board members said.

Speaker 1 called the district’s Oct. 30 special meeting back to order and stated, “we would like to articulate as a board that the district has heard the city's concerns, and we met tonight to discuss those concerns.” Following the executive session, Speaker 3 moved “that we direct the administration administration to engage, with city officials on the topic of real estate.” Speaker 1 indicated the motion was seconded.

The board took the vote by a show of hands. Speaker 1 called for those in favor to raise their right hand, and Speaker 2 recorded, “Motion is yes.” The transcript does not include a numeric roll-call or tally; the motion was announced as approved by voice.

The motion directs district administration to open or continue engagement with city officials on the subject identified in the motion. The transcript does not specify a timetable, the staff member who will lead the work, or any specific negotiation positions; those details were not stated on the record.

After recording the vote, Speakers 1 and 2 moved to adjourn, and the special meeting ended. The transcript records no further public comment or staff presentations connected to the real-estate matter during the open session.

The transcript shows the board recessed to an executive session earlier in the meeting; the public record here notes that the executive session occurred but does not give the content beyond the board’s statement that it had heard the city's concerns. The board did not announce any additional formal actions or documents in the open session addressing the real-estate issue.
