Summary

At its April 20 meeting the Jackson Parish Museum board approved March minutes and the March financial report, accepted a resignation, and voted to pay President Blair Aranda’s sons as paid substitutes when rostered attendants are unavailable.

The Jackson Parish Museum and Fine Arts Association board met April 20 and approved the March minutes and the March financial report, the board recorded in its minutes.

President Blair Aranda called the meeting to order and announced that three board members were present: herself, Wilda Smith and Karen Tolar. The board noted the resignation of member Sheryl Holder.

Wilda Smith moved to accept the March minutes as presented; Karen Tolar seconded and the motion carried. Smith then presented the financial report for March; Tolar moved to accept the report, Smith seconded and the motion carried.

In a personnel action, the board approved a motion authorizing payment to President Aranda’s sons when the duty roster cannot be filled by the assigned member. The motion was made by Wilda Smith, seconded by Karen Tolar, and recorded as carried.

The minutes also record that Justice of the Peace Eric Borland sent a letter to Everon LLC regarding the museum’s security system; the board noted it had to change systems after the death of a member who had access to the prior system password and that it is awaiting a response from Everon LLC. The minutes refer to $1,347.88 in connection with the security-system matter but do not specify whether that amount is a payment, an invoice or another accounting item.

The meeting was adjourned on a motion by Karen Tolar, seconded by Wilda Smith.

What happens next: the minutes indicate the board will await Everon LLC’s response on the security-system correspondence; other items were recorded for follow-up but no further formal votes were scheduled in these minutes.
