Standish-Sterling board considers BAISD representative; meeting adjourns at 4:50 p.m.
Summary
The Standish-Sterling Community Schools board met May 12 to consider an appointment to the BAISD board and reviewed two candidates, Gary Yaros and Allen Schmidt; the transcript records consideration but no final appointment. The meeting was called by President Dennis Kolevar and adjourned after a unanimous adjournment vote.
The Standish-Sterling Community Schools board met in a special session on May 12, 2025, in Central Jr/Sr High School Room 404 to consider an appointment to the Bay-Arenac Intermediate School District (BAISD) board and to review two candidates. President Dennis Kolevar opened the meeting and led the Pledge of Allegiance.
The agenda item titled “BAISD Board Election” listed consideration of a board member appointment with Angie Baker named as the district’s representative and Dennis Kolevar listed as alternate. The transcript then notes two candidates under consideration: Gary Yaros and Allen Schmidt. The record shows the items were placed on the agenda and considered, but it does not record any formal vote, motion, or final appointment that resolved which candidate, if any, would receive the seat.
Attendance for the special meeting was recorded as follows: Angie Baker (present), Kimberly Belchak (absent), Dennis Kolevar (present), Kevin Noffsinger (present), Annette Ratajczak (present), Curt Ratajczak (present) and Jeffrey Ryan (present). The transcript lists a total of six members present and one absent.
The only formal motion recorded in the transcript was to adjourn the meeting. Board member Kevin Noffsinger moved to adjourn; Jeffrey Ryan seconded the motion. The roll call vote passed with six yeas and one absence: Angie Baker — Yea; Dennis Kolevar — Yea; Kevin Noffsinger — Yea; Annette Ratajczak — Yea; Curt Ratajczak — Yea; Jeffrey Ryan — Yea; Kimberly Belchak — Absent. The meeting adjourned at 4:50 p.m.
The transcript does not include statements from the named candidates, a nomination speech, or a recorded vote on the BAISD appointment, and it does not set a next meeting date or follow-up action regarding the appointment. The board’s consideration of the BAISD appointment therefore remains unresolved in the public record captured by this transcript.
