The Harper Woods Board of Education approved its 2025 annual audit and voted to adopt a 2026 refunding bond issuance during a rescheduled regular meeting on Oct. 20, 2025.
President Terry Hughes called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. and the board moved quickly to business. The board approved the 2025 annual audit on a motion by Stacey White, seconded by Johnetta Tabron; the motion carried by a 5-1 tally. The transcript records the tally but does not specify individual roll-call votes.
Item 9.2 on the agenda, a proposal to adopt 2026 refunding bonds, drew a request to table from Board members Ramona Dunn-Simmons and Diana Nimmons. President Hughes moved the item forward for consideration. Johnetta Tabron moved to adopt the refunding bonds, supported by Stacey White; that motion passed 4-2. The transcript records the 4-2 outcome but does not provide a vote-by-name breakdown.
Board members who asked that the bonds be tabled did not prevail in that procedural request; the board adopted the bond authorization. The transcript includes no details on bond size, interest rates, use of proceeds, or underwriting terms.
The board concluded business and adjourned the meeting at 9:01 p.m.
