Summary

The Kent School District Board appointed three members to the pro committee (Dana Ralph, Bill Boyce, Jeff Wagner) and Joseph Riley to the con committee for Resolution 17182026, the Educational Programs and Operations (EP&O) levy; the board approved the appointments by a 5-0 vote.

President Maribel Margell opened the nominations for pro and con committees tied to Resolution 17182026, the Educational Programs and Operations (EP&O) levy, and read the names of proposed pro committee members.

"I nominate Dana Ralph," said Director Williams during the nominations. After roll-call voting by the board, Dana Ralph, Bill Boyce, and Jeff Wagner each received the required three affirmative votes and were appointed to the pro committee. Joseph Riley, the sole nominee for the con committee, was similarly appointed after roll-call voting.

The board then took a single motion to approve the nominated pro and con committees for Resolution 17182026; the motion passed 5 to 0. President Maribel Margell summarized the appointed membership as Dana Ralph, Bill Boyce, Jeff Wagner for the pro side and Joseph Riley for the con side. The approvals complete the district's process to staff committees that will handle advocacy and opposition for the EP&O levy as posted on the agenda.

Next procedural steps were clarified on the record: counsel confirmed the board could both accept nominations and then make a motion to approve the committees, at which point further discussion could occur before the final vote.
