Committee tables warrant approvals until signed cover sheets are provided
Summary
Members raised procedural concerns about voucher cover sheets lacking signatures. The committee voted to table approval of presented warrants until fully signed cover sheets are presented for the record.
Members raised procedural questions about warrant and voucher cover sheets that were scanned into the packet without all required signatures. Several committee members asked whether it is legal to approve warrants without the superintendent and business officers' signatures on the cover sheets; others noted the bills had already been paid and that approval is often a formality.
After discussion, Art moved to table warrants until cover sheets with required signatures are provided; the motion was seconded and carried by roll-call vote. Chair Julie said the business administrator would ensure cover sheets are completed in future packets so the committee can approve warrants in a timely fashion.
Members framed the vote as a procedural correction intended to preserve an auditable record rather than to block payments already made.
