Board approves MOUs and policy deletions, and raises adult lunch price by 50¢
Summary
Trustees approved several MOUs that include a cap on out-of-pocket health costs and a two-installment bonus, removed a district policy (EBC/EDCA) from policy manual, approved first readings for policy revisions, and voted to raise the adult lunch price by 50¢; all motions passed on voice votes.
During the business section the board considered personnel and policy items and took several formal votes.
Health benefit MOUs and bonus: The board discussed memorandums of understanding with employee groups that provide a cap on out-of-pocket insurance costs and a two-installment bonus payment. A motion to approve the agreement was made, seconded and approved by voice vote; board members and staff reported positive reactions from employees during open enrollment.
Policy removal and first readings: Trustees moved to remove policy EBC/EDCA from the manual and approved first readings for several related policies (EBCs, EBCB, etc.). The motions were made, seconded and passed by voice vote; the board discussed combining some policy language and confirmed the deletion and consolidation.
Adult lunch price increase: The board approved a modest increase in adult lunch prices — recorded in discussion as a 50¢ increase — so the district would not be subsidizing adult meals while student meals remain free. The motion was made and passed by voice vote.
Votes at a glance: All motions described above were passed by voice vote. The transcript records the motions, seconding and roll-call-by-voice but does not provide a recorded tally by member name.
