Summary
The board approved its annual slate of administrative authorizations — depositories, legal counsel, investment authority, credit-card use, signing authority and electronic transfer appointment — in a 4–0 vote at the July 9 meeting.
The Manistee Area Public Schools Board of Education on July 9 approved the district’s annual organizational authorizations, giving the superintendent and business office authority to manage depositories and routine financial operations.
