The board canvassed and certified May 2, 2026 trustee results (Krystal Arnold, Place 6 — 738 votes; Briley Hicks, Place 7 — 615 votes), seated Briley Hicks, and then elected Amanda Sanchez as Board President by a 5‑to‑1 show‑of‑hands margin over John Morton before accepting officer nominations 6–0.
The Board canvassed and certified the May 2, 2026 trustee election results presented by Executive Director of Human Resources Sherry Taylor. The minutes record that Krystal Arnold won Place 6 with 738 votes and Briley Hicks won Place 7 with 615 votes; trustees voted to approve the canvass and Mr. Hicks then took his seat on the panel.
After seating the newly elected trustee, the board conducted nominations for officers. Glen Lowry nominated Amanda Sanchez for Board President and John Morton nominated himself; a show of hands recorded one vote for Morton and five votes for Sanchez. The board then accepted nominations for vice president (Ben Davis) and secretary (Krystal Arnold) and approved the slate by a 6–0 vote among trustees present. The minutes show the votes and the official reorganization but do not report any contested challenges to the canvass.
