After split votes, board approves separation agreement

May 28, 2026

A pair of roll-call votes on May 28 produced a failed motion to reject a separation agreement and then approval of the agreement; the amendment to reject failed 4–2, and the subsequent motion to approve passed 4–2 with the opposite split.

The full story

The board considered a separation agreement during the special session and voted twice on differing motions. First, Dave Rohde moved and Tanya Johnson seconded an amendment to the agenda item seeking to reject the separation agreement. The roll call recorded Pete Kramer, Tracy Hutchinson, Leanaya Miller and Kellee Young voting No, and Tanya Johnson and Dave Rohde voting Yes; the amendment failed.
