Summary
The Port Neches‑Groves ISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously Sept. 9 to cancel the Nov. 5 trustee election after certifying Scott Bartlett (Place 1), Dustin Marsh (Place 2) and Eric Sullivan (Place 3) as unopposed under Texas Election Code Sec. 2.053.
The Port Neches‑Groves Independent School District Board of Trustees voted unanimously Sept. 9 to cancel the Nov. 5, 2024 trustee election after certifying three candidates as unopposed. Trustee Scott Bartlett moved to approve the order of cancellation; Trustee Dustin Marsh seconded, and the motion passed 7-0.
The board certified Scott Bartlett for Place 1, Dustin Marsh for Place 2 and Eric Sullivan for Place 3. The district filed an order of cancellation consistent with Section 2.053(a) of the Texas Election Code and noted that a copy of the order would be posted at polling places that would have been used on Election Day.
The vote was taken as part of the regular meeting conducted at the administration building and reflected the board's formal certification of unopposed candidates. Board President Brandon Cropper presided; Trustee Scott Bartlett moved the motion and Trustee Dustin Marsh seconded. No public speakers addressed the item during the meeting.
Next steps: because the candidates were certified as unopposed and the order of cancellation was adopted, no trustee election for those places will be held Nov. 5 for PNGISD.
