Summary

The board elected a president and vice president (each by 6–1) and approved committee assignments for negotiations, facilities, policy, wellness, long-range planning and safety; several votes were unanimous or near-unanimous.

At the organizational portion of the meeting the board conducted nominations and roll-call votes to fill leadership positions and committee seats. Nominations produced a roll-call vote that resulted in a president and vice president each elected 6–1; several board members discussed deferring to more experienced members for leadership roles and voiced support for a staggered approach.

The board then voted on committee assignments. Negotiations, facilities, policy, wellness, long-range planning and safety committee rosters were determined by individual roll calls; most passed unanimously 7–0 or by margins of 6–1 depending on the seat. The board agreed to vote on committee membership individually to respect volunteers’ preferences and to keep a maximum of three members on certain committees.

These organizational votes set the leadership and committee structure the board will use in the coming year and were handled by roll-call votes recorded on the meeting minutes.
