A motion to approve the joint Brookline School Board and Brookline Finance Committee minutes from Dec. 17, 2025, with several clerical amendments, was offered at the Brookline School Board meeting on Jan. 15, 2026.
The chair read a set of specific amendments proposed to the minutes, including punctuation and spelling corrections (multiple corrections to the name Molinari and to the word “performing”), a change replacing “allowing” with “allowance,” converting plural phrasing to singular on one line, and deleting a repeated phrase on page 12. The chair framed the changes as clerical fixes during the approval process.
When the chair asked, “May I get a motion to accept as amended?” a committee member replied, “I will motion to accept as amended.” The chair acknowledged a second and asked, “All in favor?” The transcript records the motion, second and the call for the vote but does not include a roll-call tally or an explicit statement of the final vote in the provided segments.
