Neshaminy board adopts Act 1 tax-resolution, approves routine business and personnel items
Summary
At a regular meeting, the Neshaminy School District board approved a slate of routine and personnel items, adopted an Act 1 tax-resolution stating it will not raise taxes above the Act 1 index, and passed multiple policy and operational motions; each vote was unanimous (9–0).
The Neshaminy School District Board of School Directors met in a regular session (date not specified in the transcript) and unanimously approved a package of routine business, personnel appointments, operations items and a resolution related to Act 1 of 2006.
At the start of the meeting the presiding officer moved a master motion to approve routine matters—minutes, treasurer's report, the check register and procurement-card purchases, investments, exonerations and bids—which was seconded and passed by voice vote, 9 to 0. The board then approved the personnel agenda covering new hires, rehires, reclassifications, retirements and leaves of absence; the board specifically acknowledged two retirements (Carol Foley after 35 years, Joseph McMahon after about 23.6 years) and approved that agenda on a 9–0 vote.
Business operations items including Sunday facility usage, a fieldhouse plaza change order and contracted services for February 2026 were approved on a master motion, 9–0. The board also adopted a resolution under the Taxpayer Relief Act (Act 1 of 2006) to not raise the rate of any tax above the Act 1 index for the upcoming fiscal year; the motion referenced a filed attachment and passed unanimously. Educational development items (including the high school program-of-study/course selection guide, student settlement agreements and two overnight trips) and the second reading and final adoption of multiple policies (13 sections listed) were also approved 9–0.
Votes recorded in the meeting transcript were conducted by voice and announced as “Aye” with the presiding officer declaring each motion passed by a 9–0 tally. No formal roll-call of individual votes appears in the transcript; the minutes record the outcomes as voice votes with the tallies provided.
The meeting concluded after a period of public comment and brief board remarks; the presiding officer moved to adjourn and the motion carried with all in favor.
