Board forms finance committee, reverts to open 'aye/nay' voting and updates facility rental rates
Summary
The board reverted to an open aye/nay voting method, adopted the superintendent evaluation timeline with targeted staff feedback, approved calendar edits and updated facility hourly rental rates, then formed a finance committee and appointed three members to terms ending June 30, 2025.
At the Sept. 1 meeting the board voted to return to an open 'aye/nay' voting process rather than roll‑call votes. The motion passed after a second and voice votes in favor.
The board then approved the superintendent evaluation timeline for 2024–25 with a modification to use selected staff for targeted feedback. It adopted the modified board and budget calendar, and approved updates to administrative regulation KGAR to bring rental hourly rates in line with current costs. "This is one of those quirky little things that we found in the policy that says the board will approve the hourly rates charged for facility rentals," a staff member said while explaining the housekeeping change.
Finally the board formed a standing finance committee to meet quarterly, and appointed Tom Buchholz, Josh Ort and Phil Wiesner for terms to expire June 30, 2025. The formation and appointments passed by voice vote.
