Summary

The board accepted the resignation of Vice President Brian Manhart and discussed but did not act on the process to fill the vacancy; the board may appoint or call a special election within 180 days.

At the March 23 meeting Superintendent Steve Cope informed the board that Vice President Brian Manhart submitted a resignation for his current term through May 2026 and declined his elected spot for the 2026'2029 term. The board voted to accept the resignation.

Jacob Fuhrmann moved to accept the resignation and Chris Garner seconded; the motion passed 5-0. Cope told the board they have 180 days to fill the vacancy and may either call a special election or appoint someone to serve through May 2027. The minutes say the seat will appear on the May 2027 election to fill the remaining two-year term if not filled by appointment.

No appointment or special election was authorized during the meeting; the board requested no immediate action, and the district will follow statutory timelines for filling the vacancy.
