Board approves employment agreement for chief business official Richard W. Edson II
Summary
Trustees voted to approve an employment agreement for Richard W. Edson II as the district's chief business official; the board recorded the contract term and compensation summary during the meeting and approved the motion by voice vote.
The Redwood City School Board approved an employment agreement May 27 to employ Richard W. Edson II as chief business official.
Board remarks included a public oral summary of compensation and term as required by Government Code section 54953. The agreement, read into the record, states a term ending June 30, 2029 and lists salary and benefits including health and welfare benefits aligned with management employees, professional dues, a $2,400 annual automobile allowance, reimbursement for necessary district expenses, and standard leave, evaluation and severance provisions. The transcript contains a truncated salary line (printed as "$275,24"), which the board read aloud during the meeting and which should be verified in the written contract for precise figures.
Trustees moved and seconded the motion to approve the contract and the motion passed by voice vote. Trustees praised Mr. Edson's experience managing the district's general fund and bond programs and expressed support for his continuing in the role.
