North Merrick Board authorizes president to execute salary and benefits addenda for senior district positions

At the meeting that resumed public session at 9:14 a.m., the North Merrick Union Free School District Board of Education authorized the board president to execute addenda to salary and benefits agreements for a number of incumbent senior positions.

The presiding officer read the motion: "The Board of Education authorizes the board president to execute agenda addenda to the salary and benefits agreements for the incumbents in the following positions, superintendent of schools, assistant superintendent for curriculum, instruction personnel, assistant superintendent for business and operations, assistant to the superintendent for people, personnel services, director of facilities and operations, confidential district clerk, confidential stenographer, unemployment agreement for director of technology and special programs." The motion was moved by Ed and seconded by Tracy.

When the presiding officer called for the vote the board responded "Aye." The record later shows an opposition from Mary Keith; the presiding officer then declared the motion passed. The transcript does not provide a full roll-call tally or dollar amounts tied to the addenda.

The authorization covers addenda to existing salary and benefits agreements for the listed roles; the motion does not specify individual contract amounts, effective dates, or whether the changes are retroactive. The board took this formal action as part of agenda item 1(e) and then moved to adjourn.
