Summary

Two residents, Nick Morris and Paige Morris, asked the board about an elevator issue, the status and transparency of the single-site study, rural education grants, solar panels, and whether the Morristown building could be leased to keep students there.

During the public comment period, Nick Morris questioned the district's elevator situation and the budget figures presented at the meeting; he told trustees that "it had been three months now since the one site discussion started." Paige Morris raised multiple community questions including rural education grants, the possibility of installing solar panels, leasing the Morristown building to keep students in that facility, and attaching agendas to computers to avoid printing paper copies. Both speakers requested clearer communication on the single-site study and its findings.

Board members acknowledged the comments; no immediate policy action was taken at the meeting beyond the board's direction to proceed with the single-site analysis and to schedule the study results for April. The minutes do not record extended back-and-forth responses beyond the comments documented above.
