The Patrick County School Board certified that a recently held closed meeting complied with the Virginia Freedom of Information Act and section 2.1-344(d) of the Code of Virginia, approved a personnel report as amended and authorized an agreement with insurance provider Will Mac, according to the meeting transcript.
Speaker 1, acting as chair, read the required FOIA certification language and stated the board’s finding that “only public business matters lawfully exempted” were discussed and that “only such public business ... were heard, discussed, or considered.” The transcript records affirmative roll-call responses from Miss Harold, Mister Scott, Mister Martin and Mister Harold; the chair also stated, “And I vote yes.”

I think it was very good, and I want to applaud the schools for selecting the members that they give to that committee ... Everyone was very engaged, asking very good questions, and I am glad that us as a board have elected to be able to have inputs into these big decisions that we're making.” The motion to authorize the agreement passed on a voice vote.
With no further business, the chair moved to adjourn and the motion was seconded; the provided transcript ends immediately after the second and does not record a formal vote tally on adjournment.
