Summary
The board voted unanimously to approve a Travis Voice and Data phone hardware and monthly service agreement costing $3,465.50 per month from the general fund, approved the consent agenda, and approved employment items after an executive session.
The Piedmont School Board voted during its business meeting to approve a new phone hardware and monthly service agreement with Travis Voice and Data and to adopt routine consent items and employment actions.
On the business agenda, the board considered a proposal to replace its current phone contract with Granite. Staff described the current vendor as "not meeting our needs as far as the the service or... responsiveness," and recommended a local vendor that would save "about $300 per month" while providing local service and support. The item was described on the agenda as $3,465.50 per month to be paid from the general fund.
Board member Jared moved to approve the Travis Voice and Data phone hardware and service agreement; Matt seconded. The board voted yes (recorded votes: Matt, Derek, Neil, Jared, Lane), carrying the motion unanimously.
The board then considered and approved the consent agenda without separate votes on individual items after Dr. Eickelberger called the consent items "all run of the mill." Derek moved approval and Jared seconded; the vote was unanimous.
Later in the meeting the board voted to convene an executive session to discuss employment matters listed on Attachment C under the statutory citation on the agenda. After the executive session, the board returned, and a motion to approve the employment items on Attachment C was made (motion credited to Elaine, second by Derek) and approved by a unanimous vote.
All formal votes recorded at the meeting were unanimous among those voting; the motions were procedural approvals and personnel approvals described on the agenda.
