RSU 35/MSAD 35 board adopts two policies and extends $500,000 tax anticipation note
Summary
At the meeting the board unanimously approved second readings and adoption of policy EAF (video cameras on transportation vehicles) and policy JCF (pediculosis/head-lice protocols), approved minutes, and authorized an extension of a $500,000 tax and revenue anticipation note to manage payroll timing.
The RSU 35/MSAD 35 school board adopted two policies and approved a temporary financing action during its meeting.
The board unanimously approved the minutes of the Nov. 20, 2024 regular meeting after a motion and second. The board then completed second reads and adopted policy EAF, authorizing the use of video cameras on transportation vehicles, and policy JCF, which establishes a protocol for handling pediculosis (head lice) in schools. Administrators said district nurses and building administrators helped develop the JCF protocol to provide clearer expectations for families. Both policy adoptions were recorded as unanimous votes: “all in favor, that’s five.”
On district finance, the board voted to authorize an extension of the $500,000 2024 tax and revenue anticipation note to manage a three‑paycheck payroll cycle and avoid cash‑flow difficulties. The superintendent explained that instead of paying off the current note and initiating a new one during a month with three paychecks, the board approved extending the existing note to smooth cash flow; the motion passed unanimously.
No roll‑call vote with individual member names was recorded in the transcript; outcomes were announced as unanimous with a five‑member affirmative tally. The meeting adjourned following a unanimously approved motion.
