Summary
At its Jan. 12 meeting the Natomas Charter Board took several formal actions: certified the 2024–25 financial audit, approved the 2025–26 compensation study, and increased the revolving fund from $100,000 to $200,000; an executive‑director evaluation committee was also appointed following closed session.
The board recorded these formal actions during the Jan. 12 meeting:
• Executive‑director evaluation committee (closed session): Board approved formation of an executive‑director evaluation committee composed of Jennifer Morgan, Gina Lee, Mia Kushal and Preeti Merchant. Motion by Sean King; second by Maria Mehrobo; outcome: approved in closed session.
• Certification of the 2024–25 financial audit: Motion to certify the FY 2024–25 audit was moved and approved by roll call (members recorded as voting 'yes' in open session). The audit identified several findings (LCFF clerical error, one TK eligibility/staffing finding, expanded‑learning enrollment form issues); corrective‑action plans will be presented next month.
• Approval of the 2025–26 compensation study: The board approved the compensation study (accepting staff analysis and directing administrators to return with concrete, costed salary proposals at the February meeting). The approval does not itself change salaries; it authorizes staff to develop options for board consideration.
• Resolution to increase revolving fund: The board approved Resolution 01.12.2026.01 to increase the district’s revolving fund from $100,000 to $200,000 to provide faster turnaround for payroll and medical premium payments.
Vote tallies: roll call for the major items reported unanimous 'yes' votes among members present at roll call. The meeting minutes and packet identify individual board members (Justin, Nina, Preeti, Jennifer, Maria, John, Arsenio and others) recorded during roll calls.
These actions will generate follow‑up deliverables including audit corrective‑action plans, February compensation proposals with budget scenarios, and any necessary budget entries to reflect the revolving‑fund change.
