Summary

The board approved a Memorandum of Understanding with the JED Foundation and accepted a $35,000 donation from the JEF Greenhouse Grant during its Jan. 13 meeting; motions for both items passed unanimously among trustees present.

The Board of Trustees approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the JED Foundation and accepted a $35,000 donation from the JEF Greenhouse Grant at its Jan. 13 meeting. Trustee Phillip Netardus moved to approve the MOU (seconded by Trustee Nicole Rakowitz) and Trustee Kendall Schorsch moved to accept the $35,000 greenhouse grant donation (seconded by Trustee Greg Vyvlecka); both motions are recorded as passed.

The minutes do not include the MOU text or the donor agreement; they record only that the MOU and the donation were approved as presented. The minutes identify the donation amount ($35,000) and label it as the "JEF Greenhouse Grant." The board did not record discussion about conditions attached to the donation or specifics of how the funds will be used; staff reports outside these minutes may provide detail on program purpose and budget allocation.

Because the minutes reference two similarly named entities ("JED Foundation" and "JEF Greenhouse Grant"), community members seeking clarity on the donor or grant administrator should consult the district's posted agenda packet or contact the business office for supporting documents.
