Edison board adopts Robert's Rules and state code of ethics, approves 2026 meeting dates
Summary
The board voted to adopt Robert's Rules of Order and the state-mandated code of ethics for school board members, and approved its 2026 meeting schedule during the Jan. 6 reorganization meeting.
The Edison Township Board of Education voted Jan. 6 to adopt Robert's Rules of Order as the board's parliamentary procedure where consistent with state law and board bylaws, and separately acknowledged the state-mandated code of ethics for school board members.
The motion to adopt Robert's Rules carried after a voice vote of the members present. The board then read the statutory code of ethics language and voted to acknowledge receipt and understanding; President Vishal Patel made the motion and Russell J. Azzarello seconded it, and members present voted in favor.
Board members also approved the board's 2026 meeting dates by motion and vote.
All three governance items were passed by the members present during the reorganizational portion of the meeting; no dissenting votes were recorded in the meeting transcript.
