Philomath board backs incumbent for OSBA regional seat and unanimously supports legislative rep
Summary
The Philomath SD 17J board nominated and voted by voice to support incumbent Louie Whiteberg for OSBA Region 10 representative and to support Jason for the legislative policy committee; votes were conducted by motion, second and voice vote with outcomes announced as passing.
The Philomath School District 17J board moved and voted during the meeting to back the incumbent candidate for the OSBA Region 10 representative and to support a separate candidate for the legislative policy committee.
Details: Clyde Rude addressed the board earlier as a candidate for the Region 10 position and outlined priorities for Region 10 (policy portal, legislative outreach, rural caucus representation). After discussion, a board member moved to support Louie Whiteberg for the regional seat; a second was heard and the chair called the question. The board voted by voice; the chair announced the motion passed and the board will cast its vote for Louie Whiteberg.
For the legislative policy committee spot, board members moved and seconded a motion to support Jason (the only nominee for that role). The board again approved the support by unanimous voice vote.
What this means: The board’s actions direct the district’s official votes for the two OSBA positions to the named candidates and will be recorded per OSBA procedures.
