Committee approves ECA‑R procedures draft adding district‑facility visitor language

Committee members reviewed ECA‑R, the procedural companion to ECA, and approved an added section clarifying visitor procedures for district facilities beyond individual school buildings. The chair explained the change would ensure consistent visitor vetting and that "all visitors must be vetted" and that screening should occur while the visitor remains outside the secured vestibule.

Members confirmed operational changes, including that access control would be managed by the assistant director of plant operations and safety rather than HR, and that portable classrooms used as welcome centers would use buzzer entry and sign‑in procedures consistent with other district sites. The motion to approve ECA‑R with the new visitors section was seconded and carried by voice vote; staff will forward the package to the full board.
