Summary

The board approved the consent agenda unanimously (7–0) and later voted 6–1 to forward draft referendum options ($1.5M, $2.0M, $2.5M) to the district's polling vendor for community testing.

Key formal actions taken during the meeting:

- Consent agenda approved by roll call, 7–0. The board acknowledged donations to the backpack program and adaptive sports league from Culver's of Sparta and the Tavern League of Wisconsin.

- Motion to forward draft referendum options (base $1,500,000; $2,000,000; $2,500,000) to School Perceptions for polling passed on roll call, 6–1 (Mister Lasko recorded a 'No'). The motion directs staff to finalize wording with the vendor and return with QR-linked explanatory materials before launching the community poll.
