Board hears question about Lady's Island cemetery ownership; access agreement to be reviewed in executive session
Summary
A board member asked whether ownership of the cemetery behind Lady's Island Elementary is resolved; staff said the land appears to be district-owned, access had been governed by an agreement that 'is not working right now,' and the board requested a future executive-session agenda item to address the MOA/contract access issue.
During the May 6 meeting a participant asked whether the district had determined who owns the cemetery located behind Lady's Island Elementary. A staff member said the property "appears to be district property" and that an access agreement had existed but that current access arrangements were inadequate.
"I think that whole property is on school district property... I think they've had an agreement for access, but that's not... it's not working right now," the staff member said, and the chair asked that the issue be placed on the next meeting's agenda for executive-session review because it involves contract or MOA language. The board did not take formal action at the May 6 session but agreed to follow up in executive session to review the MOA and access terms.
The transcript does not record details of the agreement's terms, who the original parties were, or any proposed remedy; the board instructed staff to add the item to the next meeting's executive-session agenda for legal and contractual review.
