Trustees voted to approve a student investment account contract following a brief public hearing and subsequently approved a four-item consent agenda after staff answered questions about CMGC projects, vehicle disposal and unemployment claims.
The David Douglas School District board took two formal actions at its Dec. 11 meeting.
Student investment account contract: After a brief public hearing and no additional testimony, the board recorded votes on the student investment account contract. Directors recorded "aye" votes from Ender, Stevenson, Gemara Jerson, Jordan and Franklin and the chair announced the contract approval.
Consent agenda: The board then considered a four-item consent agenda. Director Gemara Jerson moved to approve the consent agenda and a second was recorded. Board members asked for brief clarifications about two CMGC construction items (P and C Construction and Howard Wright) and learned those line items represent phased CMGC bidding that will increase as project phases are bid. Trustees also discussed vehicle scrapping (about $100 per vehicle) and recent increases in unemployment claims tied to changes in legislation and reductions in force; staff said the district has adjusted budget assumptions accordingly. The board recorded unanimous "aye" votes to approve the consent agenda.
The meeting minutes and agenda materials list the items included on the consent agenda; the board did not record any abstentions or recusals during these votes.
