Summary

The board considered a resolution related to Senate Bill 11 but the motion to approve the resolution recorded five 'nay' votes from trustees present, so the motion did not pass as recorded in the minutes.

The board considered a resolution related to Senate Bill 11 during the Feb. 9 meeting. Trustee Jimmy Newman moved and Trustee Bud Box seconded "that the Board approve the Senate Bill 11 resolution as presented," per the minutes. The record states that Trustees Lott, Box, Villasana, Newman and Mendez "voted nay" on that motion.

Because the minutes record five trustees voting "nay" on the motion to approve, the motion failed as recorded. The minutes do not include the resolution text or explain the rationale for the votes; members of the public seeking the proposed resolution language or the board's discussion may request the meeting packet or minutes exhibits from the district office.
