At a May 13 special meeting, the Needville ISD Board of Trustees approved an order canvassing returns and declared Kim R. Janke (Position 6) and Chris Janicek (Position 7) the winners of the May 2, 2026 trustee election; the motion passed on a 2-0 vote.
Board President Chris Janicek presided over a May 13, 2026, special meeting of the Needville ISD Board of Trustees and moved to approve the order canvassing returns from the May 2 trustee election. The board declared Kim R. Janke (Position 6) and Chris Janicek (Position 7) the winners, with a recorded vote of Ayes-2, Nays-0. The motion to certify the results was made by Tim Sbrusch and seconded by Chris Janicek.
Janicek opened the meeting by noting compliance with state open-meeting rules, saying, "Let the record show that a quorum of the Needville ISD Board members is present, and that this meeting has been posted in accordance with Texas Open Meetings Act, Texas Government Code Chapter 551." The certification follows the district's canvass process at a special meeting called for the purpose of declaring election results.
Superintendent Dr. Paul Drake and Vice President Kim R. Janke were listed among those present; the published roll indicates the trustees and the superintendent were in attendance for the brief session. The minutes record a motion and vote but do not list individual roll-call votes by name, only the tally of Ayes-2 and Nays-0.
The board approved the canvass and the meeting record shows placeholder signature lines for the Assistant Board Secretary and the Board President; the minute text does not include a filled signature for the assistant secretary.
