Votes at a glance: revised budget, budget goal, open-enrollment caps and a mercury-removal contract

At the Feb. [date not specified in the record] Westonka Public School District board meeting, the board took a series of procedural and action votes that were presented in rapid succession and carried by voice vote.

Key outcomes recorded in the meeting:

• Revised 2025-26 budget — Approved (motion seconded and carried by voice vote). The revised budget adjusts enrollment and revenue assumptions, updates expenditures and incorporates bond refinancing savings as presented.

• Budget goal for fiscal year 2027 — Approved (motion seconded and carried by voice vote).

• Resolution to close grade 7 to open enrollment for the 2026-27 school year — Approved (motion seconded and carried by voice vote). The record notes the district will close open enrollment in grade 7 when enrollment reaches the stated cap level.

• Resolution to cap grade 5 enrollment for open enrollment in the 2026-27 school year — Approved (motion seconded and carried by voice vote).

• Contract award for mercury removal at Westonka High School — Approved (motion seconded and carried by voice vote). The meeting record lists a contract award with "Titan Environmental" and references an additional firm name that is unclear in the transcript; the action item description in the record was read as approval of that contract award for mercury removal at Westonka High School.

The consent agenda also was approved earlier in the meeting. The meeting record reports each motion was seconded and the chair announced that motions carried; no roll-call tallies were provided in the record.
