Summary

The Swartz Creek Community Schools Board of Education convened a Nov. 5 special meeting after two board members requested it; the agenda included complaints about board members and multiple attorney-related items, though the transcript record shows the formal action focused on funding counsel for one member.

The Swartz Creek Community Schools Board of Education held a special meeting Nov. 5 in the Joan Ferris Board Room after board members Ken Engel and Autumn Henry requested the session. The publicly posted agenda included a section described as 'Board Member Review' and items labeled 'Complaints about Board Members' that referenced attorneys Delaporte and Thrun as well as a separate 'Attorney Williams Paperwork' entry.

The transcript records the agenda lines but does not include extended discussion in these segments explaining the specific allegations or the content of the paperwork. Interim Superintendent Jim Kitchen and Interim Deputy Superintendent Dave Simonsen were listed as present; Andrea Fick was recorded as absent. The record therefore shows the board placed complaints and attorney-related paperwork on the agenda and then moved to address a discrete motion about legal representation for one board member. The meeting was called to order by Board President Carrie Germain at 6:04 p.m.
