Summary
Board members moved to replace the committee chair after concerns about public comments and focus; the committee voted to proceed, nominated Mister Darryl for chair and recorded an abstention from one member. The clerk was instructed to update the committee chair and one item was tabled to the full board.
The Finance & Facilities Committee moved to consider replacing its chairman and subsequently nominated Mister Darryl to serve as chair.
Speaker 3 opened a discussion saying he had concerns about "some of the media things" and "outspoken things" by the current committee chair that he believes distracted the committee from academic priorities. He proposed the committee consider choosing a different chairman.
The committee took a motion to consider changing the Facilities and Finance Committee chairman. The motion was seconded. During the vote exchange Speaker 1 said, "I have to abstain because, of course, you're attacking at me, but, I will abstain," and other members responded 'aye.' The committee proceeded to nominate Mister Darryl; Speaker 2 nominated him and Speaker 5 seconded the nomination. Darryl accepted the nomination and the committee voiced 'aye' responses.
Speaker 3 asked the clerk to record the change. The committee also agreed to table discussion of the superintendent's proposal until the full board meeting scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 10 at 3:30 p.m., then adjourned.
