Votes at a glance: New Milford board re‑approves budget resolutions, approves personnel slate
Summary
The board reapproved budget resolutions tied to the tentative 2025–26 budget (F24 series) and approved a slate of personnel appointments (P20 series) by roll call; one member recorded an abstention on a personnel item; one budget item remains contingent on NJDOE approval.
The New Milford Board of Education used roll‑call votes during Thursday’s meeting to reapprove a set of budget resolutions and to approve multiple personnel appointments.
What passed
- Budget resolutions (F24 series): The board reapproved the resolutions associated with the tentative 2025–26 budget after changes made during the public hearing. The board recorded 'Yes' votes during roll call and the vote was carried. One of the budget items (F24.236 in the presentation) was noted as pending approval from the New Jersey Department of Education.
- Personnel approvals (P20 series): The board approved the omnibus personnel motion listing appointments and changes in P20.109–P20.123. The transcript records an abstention by one board member on a specific item because of family ties; otherwise the personnel slate passed.
Procedural notes
Roll‑call prompts in the transcript list board members including Mister Alvaro, Miss Calderon, Mister DeCosta, Miss Cauchinger, Mister Luna and President Gomez; the meeting record shows affirmative responses for those prompts during the votes recorded on the floor.
What’s next
The business administrator will submit paperwork to the NJDOE for the tax‑levy incentive application tied to the tentative budget; final budget adoption could change if the state grants or denies that incentive.
