Summary

The Calhoun County Board approved a set of superintendent-recommended contracts and memoranda of understanding: renewal of the public-relations coordinator contract, an agreement allowing Talladega Superspeedway to rent district buses, a YMCA after-school MOU, a UAB internship MOU, and an extension of mental-health services with Highland Health that the district says is state-mandated.

Superintendent Mr. Willis (S3) presented multiple action items grouped under superintendent recommendations and asked the board to approve them individually. He described the public-relations coordinator contract as "same rate, same number hours" for the coming year and recommended approval.

Willis recommended continuing an agreement allowing Talladega Superspeedway to rent district buses for race events, saying the Speedway "pays us a fair price" and returns the buses clean. The board approved the agreement on voice vote.

The board also approved a memorandum of understanding with the YMCA to operate after-school programs on campus and a separate MOU with the University of Alabama at Birmingham to accept clinical interns in district schools next semester. Willis said the district also recommended extending an agreement with Highland Health to provide mental-health services; he characterized the mental-health arrangement as mandated by the state and recommended renewal for the coming year. Each item was approved on a motion, second and voice vote recorded in the transcript.

The approvals were presented as routine renewals or partnerships and carried without recorded dissent in the meeting record.
