Summary

The Holmen Board of Education approved the remaining consent agenda, then voted separately to authorize the district budget to exceed revenue limits by $4,525,000 per year for five years and to call a referendum on that question; motions passed by voice vote with no recorded opposition on Dec. 8.

At the Dec. 8 meeting the Holmen Board of Education approved the remaining consent agenda items (with Chris Lau successfully moving to pull Items 10.5 and 10.6 for separate votes).

Item 10.5 — a resolution authorizing the district budget to exceed the revenue limit by $4,525,000 per year for five years for nonrecurring purposes — was moved by Chris Lau and seconded by a board member; the motion passed by voice vote. The chair then entertained a motion on Item 10.6 to provide for a referendum election on that question; that motion was moved by Chris Lau, seconded by Bridget Todd Robbins, and passed by voice vote.

Board members also approved the remaining consent agenda items (excluding 10.5 and 10.6) by a separate voice vote prior to the two resolution votes. The meeting closed with board committee reports and the board’s adjournment at 8:09 p.m.
