Des Moines school board approves conveyance of property to 21st Century Rehab
Summary
The Des Moines Public Schools board unanimously approved a resolution to convey an interest in real property to 21st Century Rehab during a special meeting; no public speakers addressed the item at the hearing.
The Des Moines Public Schools Board voted unanimously to approve a conveyance of an interest in district real property to 21st Century Rehab following a brief public hearing.
Board Chair Emma Martorano opened the hearing on Item B1 and, after hearing no public comments, Superintendent Matt Smith recommended the board review, hold the hearing, and approve the sale. A motion recorded as "Mayberry Mays" moving the item with a second recorded as "Dicks" passed 7-0.
The board took no substantive public comment on the item during the hearing. The chair directed the board secretary to enter any written comments into the public record as required. The board had earlier approved the meeting agenda by unanimous vote.
The board did not discuss detailed sale terms during the public portion of the meeting; the superintendent's recommendation was the basis for the motion. The board adjourned the special business items and recessed into a joint work session with city officials for a Reimagine Education update.
Next steps: The conveyance was approved on March 24, 2026; any implementation steps (closing dates, deed records, or contingencies) were not specified in the hearing record.
