Summary

Board discussed a vacancy with no on-time applicants, extended the application deadline to July 1, and proposed a special session on July 8 to interview finalists and appoint a director to serve until June 30 next year.

Speaker 2 raised the issue of a board vacancy and asked whether the board wished to appoint an interview committee. The board noted no applicants had met the original deadline and agreed to extend the application period to July 1. Speaker 1 suggested a special session on July 8 to interview finalists and appoint someone to serve until June 30 of the following year.

Board members discussed the makeup of an interview process (board members plus a community member or admin representative) and recalled a prior process used in 2020. Speaker 7 noted the appointed position would likely be 'position 2' and that the term would run until 2029 or, if appointed, would then be subject to election processes as applicable.

The board did not finalize a formal committee appointment during this session but set dates and next steps for the vacancy process.
