Board approves resolutions, accepts gifts and advances several routine business items

The Simi Valley Unified board approved multiple action items on the agenda by roll call vote.

Among the votes: the board adopted a revised conflict‑of‑interest code and related exhibit; adopted the resolution on the sufficiency of instructional materials (Resolution 8/20/2025 as listed on the agenda); approved the use of pupil‑textbook and instructional‑materials funds to provide adequate materials for students; and accepted gifts totaling $48,878.76 for school‑specific purposes (including Crestview PTA library support, Madera PTA field‑trip funds, Bank of America matching donations, and booster contributions toward a new Royal High School gym scoreboard), bringing the cumulative gift total for the 2024–25 year to $142,713.06.

On facilities and real‑property business, the board adopted Resolution 11/24/25 authorizing the superintendent or designee to sign a purchase‑and‑sale agreement and escrow instructions for a property at the southwest corner of Los Angeles Avenue and Blackstone Avenue in Simi Valley, declaring the parcel surplus and finding the sale categorically exempt under CEQA. The board also approved an appropriation limitation calculation for 2023–24 and the unaudited actual financial statements for 2023–24.

A facilities item described the Hillside Middle School portable relocation project (Phase 3, bid F24LS4To6) and the district's lease‑leaseback process; staff noted prior board approval of Viola Inc. as the lease‑leaseback contractor for construction services. Several items were presented as information or first readings only; the board listed future announcements and adjourned the meeting.

Roll call votes on action items recorded 'aye' for the trustees present; the meeting record lists unanimous approval where roll calls were completed.
