Board agrees to send regionalization letter via outside firm; districts seek Friday deadline
Summary
Board President said the Regano firm will send a letter on regionalization on behalf of this district and others; a recently issued state regulation was incorporated into the draft and districts requested the letter be sent by Friday, with board members voicing agreement.
Board President said Thursday that the district and several neighboring districts will ask a private firm to send a joint letter about regionalization, noting the draft incorporates a state regulation issued last week and that the districts want the letter sent by Friday.
"And this is the letter regarding regionalization, which, the firm we just appointed, the Regano firm, will be sending on behalf of us and a few other school districts," the Board President said as the board reviewed the draft. The president also said the board of regents has a meeting Monday and that "the state had issued another regulation just last week, which has been incorporated now into this letter."
According to the transcript, the group of districts involved asked that the letter be sent by Friday; the Board President asked whether members agreed to send it and board members expressed agreement. The transcript records the exchanges as brief affirmations but does not name individual members or record a formal motion or roll-call vote on the authorization to send the letter.
The transcript does not include the text of the regulation or the full letter draft, nor does it record the Regano firm's address or the full list of participating districts. The next procedural item on the agenda was an opportunity for non-agenda public comment, during which no speakers were recorded.
