Summary

The board voted to mark a single OSBA ballot item (resolution 1, to adopt a revised dues schedule) as 'yes' and register 'no action' for other ballot items; members discussed the proposed dues increase and the services OSBA provides.

Board members discussed the OSBA election and an associated dues-schedule resolution during the meeting and then took action in the consent portion of the agenda. One board member moved that the board complete the OSBA ballot by voting yes on resolution 1 (the dues-schedule change) and marking other ballot items as "no action." The motion was seconded and passed by voice vote.

During discussion board members noted that the dues schedule change would increase the district's OSBA dues over time (one board member observed the schedule would increase district dues by roughly $1,000 per year over several years in the draft timeline) and weighed the dues increase against services such as legal support and training that OSBA provides. The board instructed central office staff to submit the ballot consistent with the board's vote.

The action authorizes staff to cast the district's OSBA ballot accordingly; board members said they will monitor OSBA services and costs during upcoming budget work.
