Board adopts statement addressing Policy 11‑30 conflicts of interest for vendor with staff family link
Summary
Trustees adopted a board statement and acknowledgement regarding Policy 11‑30 to address a case where an administrator’s family member has a financial interest in a district vendor; the board emphasized transparency and limited discussion of individual particulars.
The board approved a statement affirming how Policy 11‑30 (ethics and conflicts of interest) applies where an administrator’s spouse or immediate family member has a financial interest in a district vendor but the administrator does not participate in vendor selection and the family member provides no direct or indirect services to the district.
The motion — read in full as required — said the board may determine Policy 11‑30 inapplicable when specified conditions are met, including that the administrator did not participate in selection and the family member does not provide services to the district. Trustees emphasized transparency and were reminded not to discuss particulars about any individual by name during the public meeting.
The motion carried on a roll‑call vote.
