Canutillo ISD approves wage resolution after unexpected Bill Childress Elementary closure
Summary
Trustees approved a resolution to pay wages to employees affected by the unexpected closure of Bill Childress Elementary on Nov. 1, 2024. Board discussion included legal limits on gifting public funds and whether staff must use personal leave if the resolution were not approved.
The board considered a resolution to pay wages to employees who were directed not to report or were sent off campus before the end of the workday during the unexpected closure of Bill Childress Elementary School on Nov. 1, 2024. Dr. Galaviz said the item had been brought earlier but a resolution was omitted due to miscommunication. Mrs. Carrasco answered trustees' questions about how the resolution avoids gifting public funds and whether employees would be required to use personal leave if the resolution were not approved.
On a motion by Mrs. Maldonado with a second by Mrs. Zuniga, the board approved the resolution (Barnes-Yes, Borrego-No, Maldonado-Yes, Ortega-Yes, Rodriguez-Yes, Zuniga-Yes). The minutes record the roll-call vote and the approval of the resolution; implementation details and reporting requirements were left to district administration.
