Board approves consent agenda, personnel slate and business affairs; Canal Place lease explained
Summary
The Akron board approved the consent agenda (with an abstention on item 27.3), approved personnel recommendations with a noted correction that 10.3 is a replacement, and approved business affairs items after administrators explained a temporary Canal Place lease used to store items during redistricting and construction.
The Akron Public School Board on Aug. 26 approved several routine but substantive items including the consent agenda, personnel recommendations and business affairs motions.
Superintendent Robinson presented personnel recommendations for categories 10–20 and clarified that item 10.3 is a replacement position rather than a new hire. Mr. Perry moved to approve the personnel slate and Mr. Alexander seconded; the board approved the recommendations with an abstention noted on item 12.1.
The board then moved to approve the consent agenda. During roll call Ms. Jackson registered an abstention on item 27.3; the motion carried on the remainder of items. After a parliamentary request to clarify the record, the board repeated the consent-agenda vote and recorded a 6–0 result on the repeated roll call.
On business affairs, Mr. Perry asked about item 27.5, an extension of a Canal Place lease that carries a monthly fee. Administration explained the space is temporary storage while the district completes redistricting and prepares construction at a Kenmore site; staff said the space stored items from nine buildings this summer and is secured for handling stored materials.
The board approved business affairs recommendations after the explanation; roll-call tallies recorded one abstention on 27.3 and approvals on the balance of items.
