Summary

The board voted to fund an employee benefits liability reserve with $360,000 from unassigned fund balance and approved a smaller workers' compensation reserve; multiple personnel and budget motions were approved by voice vote (most 6–0).

Dr. Perry outlined a proposed transfer into the employee benefits liability reserve to cover retirements and termination costs: "They're making a recommendation to, fund the, employee benefits, liability reserve with, $360,000 from the unassigned fund balance," he said. The motion (moved by Missus Giglielo; second Missus Jones) was adopted on a voice vote, recorded as 6–0.

The board then considered a similar, smaller resolution to increase the workers' compensation reserve to offset anticipated claims; that measure also passed by voice vote (motion by Mr. Larrabee; second Missus Kogan). Earlier in the meeting the board approved minutes, policy committee recommendations, reports and personnel motions — all by voice vote. The meeting adjourned on a final motion (Mr. Larrabee; second Mr. Casey) that passed 6–0.
