Rochelle Park BOE to post audio recordings of meetings starting in April
Summary
The board adopted Policy 0168 to make meeting recordings public (audio only) beginning with April meetings; the policy and a package of rules were approved unanimously on March 25.
The Rochelle Park Board of Education voted on March 25 to adopt Policy 0168, which will make audio recordings of board meetings publicly available beginning with the April meeting cycle, Vice President Christina Holz noted when the policy package appeared for second reading.
Policy 0168 was listed among a group of policies approved on second reading (P&R 1) and the motion to adopt the package carried by roll call vote 7–0 (motion: Mrs. Balik; second: Ms. Holz). Board materials specify the recordings will be audio only and will be posted to the district website beginning with the April meetings.
Board members framed the change as a transparency measure; the policy was listed on the agenda and adopted as part of the approved policy packet. The board did not record further procedural details at the March 25 meeting about posting timelines beyond the April start date. The district website will be the public location for recordings when they become available.
