Hart board denies temporary easement for Safe Routes to School
Summary
The Hart Board of Education voted 5–1–1 to deny a proposed temporary easement for a Safe Routes to School project after hearing from district staff and outside representatives who answered questions; one board member voted against the motion and one was absent.
The Hart Board of Education voted to deny a proposed temporary easement for a Safe Routes to School project at its Feb. 9 meeting. Board member Chad Coker moved the motion and Board member Steve Riley seconded; the motion passed 5–1–1, with Board member Irma Hinojosa voting nay and Board member Mike Barefoot absent.
Board members heard questions answered by Nicole Kleiner and Gail Morton, who were present to provide information about the easement. Trustees said they had concerns about conflicting information that had been circulated about the proposal prior to the vote.
The motion was recorded in the minutes as “Motion to deny the temporary easement for Safe Routes to School as presented.” The minutes do not specify the physical scope or location of the easement or the agency seeking it; those details were not provided in the meeting record.
Board President Jeff Schaner called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m. and the vote on the easement occurred during the action-items portion of the agenda. Mr. Barefoot left the meeting before the vote was called, which the minutes note in the roll call recorded with the motion.
