Stafford MSD tables budget amendment, approves public‑information resolution and consent agenda
Summary
The board tabled a budget amendment pending supporting documents from the CFO, approved a resolution designating Public Information Act non‑business days for 2026 and passed the consent agenda; trustees set a Jan. 15 special meeting to address deadlines and tabled items.
The Stafford Municipal School District board on Dec. 8 tabled a proposed budget amendment to move funds between functions so the district's CFO could provide supporting details and attachments, approved a resolution designating non‑business days under the Texas Public Information Act and adopted the consent agenda.
On returning from closed session trustees considered agenda item 6a, a resolution described in the agenda as relating to Texas Government Code section 552.0031 and designation of non‑business days for the Public Information Act in 2026. Trustee Hana Hosa moved to approve the resolution; Secretary Sessa Montelongo seconded the motion, and the board voted 6–0 to adopt it.
The board then discussed item 6b, a budget amendment described on the agenda as transfers between functions to cover expenses. The agenda text referenced a $1,500 transfer from account 199‑41 and additional transfers described in the meeting record; the CFO explained the transfers were intended to reallocate appropriations without changing total appropriations but did not have the detailed attachment available at the meeting. "So these are insignificant changes," the CFO said, but trustees asked for the supporting backup and agreed to table the item until the CFO provides the attachment at the next meeting.
The consent agenda was presented and approved by a 6–0 vote after a motion and second; the chair then announced the meeting's future business. Trustees discussed meeting scheduling and statutory hearing windows and agreed to plan a special meeting for Jan. 15 to meet the required first hearing deadline and to address the tabling and other items.
What the board voted on at a glance: the resolution under Texas Government Code section 552.0031 was approved 6–0; the consent agenda was approved 6–0; the budget amendment was discussed and tabled pending documentation.
No personnel terminations were acted on during the meeting, and the board adjourned after taking the above actions.
