Natomas Unified board appoints Dr. Fred Van Black as interim chief business official
Summary
The Natomas Unified School District board announced the appointment of Dr. Fred Van Black as interim chief business official, effective 03/24/2025; the board said it will consider a formal appointment agreement at its next regular meeting, a date the transcript lists inconsistently.
The Natomas Unified School District Board of Trustees announced that it appointed Dr. Fred Van Black as interim chief business official in closed session and said his appointment will commence Monday, 03/24/2025.
"In closed session, the board appointed doctor Fred Van Black as interim chief business official commencing Monday, 03/24/2025," the Chair said after the board reconvened at 07:58AM. The Chair added that the board will consider an appointment agreement at its regular meeting; the transcript lists both "Wednesday, April 26" and "04/16/2025," a discrepancy recorded in the meeting record.
The Chair told attendees that the government code restricts the board's authority to approve employment agreements at a special meeting, and the Chair reported the vote on the appointment was unanimous. The board did not read a formal motion on the record during open session; the appointment itself was completed during closed session and will be memorialized through an agreement to be considered at the next regular meeting.
The board provided no additional public details in open session about the terms of the interim appointment, including salary, duration beyond the stated start date, or reporting relationships. Those items will be addressed when the appointment agreement is placed on the agenda for the regular meeting.
