Summary

Staff recommended revising policy DIC to change the inventoried-equipment threshold; the board voted to waive the normal waiting period so it could consider the policy tonight. Transcript contains a typographical inconsistency in the materials; the discussion indicated a change from $5,000 to $10,000.

Justin Barron presented a recommended revision to policy DIC (inventories), describing the change as a simple update to the dollar threshold used in the district definition of equipment.

Barron said, "So we would like to recommend, that the board, revise policy DIC, inventories." The board discussed waiving the BD requirement (which typically would require a one-month delay) to allow an immediate vote. Members voiced support for waiving BD; the waiver was approved by voice vote, enabling the board to proceed that evening on the policy matter. The packet contains a typographical inconsistency (one page retains "$5,000" where the discussion and motion indicated a proposed threshold of $10,000); the article notes that inconsistency rather than asserting an out-of-record change.
