Summary
At its Feb. 2 meeting, the Clear Creek ISD Board approved the 2025 ACFR audit report, an order calling the May 2 trustee election, temporary tax‑payment accommodations after a lockbox failure, a teacher‑certification compliance plan and $638,000 in capital‑project funding; the board also accepted district donations.
The Clear Creek Independent School District Board of Trustees approved a series of routine and substantive actions at its Feb. 2 meeting, adopting the district's annual audit, authorizing election logistics and approving several operational measures including tax‑office remedies and capital maintenance spending.
The board voted, by voice and with no recorded opposition, to accept Weaver and Tidwell LLP's 2025 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), which the audit partner described as an unmodified opinion. Trustees also approved the order calling the May 2, 2026 trustee election (Districts 2 and 3), and authorized early‑voting days and polling locations.
Following reports from the tax office, trustees approved two measures to protect taxpayers after operational delays: (1) authorize the tax office to treat payments postmarked Feb. 1–4 as if postmarked Jan. 31 for the current tax year, and (2) for 2025 only, accept an unsworn taxpayer declaration that a payment was mailed by 12/31/2025 as substantial proof to avoid penalties and interest. Those steps followed an operational failure that closed the district's lockbox PO box and caused returned or delayed mail.
Trustees approved a district plan to comply with House Bill 2 requirements on uncertified teachers and accepted the superintendent's recommendation to use $638,000 in capital project funds for athletic field renovations ($353,000), mechanical system chemical treatment and equipment replacement ($215,000), and pool controller replacements ($70,000). The board also approved gifts and donations listed on the consent agenda after trustee Cunningham pulled item 4 for discussion.
Votes were taken by voice; no roll‑call tallies were recorded in the public portion of the transcript. The meeting adjourned after a closed session at about 9:44 p.m.
