Board approves $315,600.75 in bills and $1,104,915.88 in payroll; McPherson abstains on bills vote
Summary
The board authorized payment of $315,600.75 in bills and $1,104,915.88 in payroll at the April 16 meeting. TiShaunda McPherson recorded an abstention on the bills vote; Mr. Gress noted state categorical payments are running slow.
The Westchester SD 92-5 Board of Education approved payment of $315,600.75 in bills and $1,104,915.88 in payroll on April 16. The motion to authorize payment of bills and payroll was made by Cynthia Peranich and seconded by Rose Ortiz and carried; TiShaunda McPherson recorded an abstention on the bills vote.
Business official Mr. Gress told the board that categorical payments from the State of Illinois are running slow, a fiscal context that may affect cash-flow timing for district operations. Ms. McPherson arrived at the meeting at 6:27 p.m. after the initial roll call and later registered an abstention on the bills and claims vote.
Why it matters: The approval moves district vendor invoices and payroll out for payment; the recorded abstention and Mr. Gress’s note on state payments provide transparency about board positions and fiscal pressures.
