Burnet CISD board formally canvasses May 2 bond election returns

Earl Foster, president of the Burnet Consolidated Independent School District Board of Trustees, called the meeting to order at 5:00 p.m. in the BCISD Board Room and said, "a quorum of Board members was present for the purposes of canvassing an election and that the meeting had been duly called and posted in accordance with Texas Government Code, Section 551." The meeting record lists Foster and Mark Kincaid as the trustees present; five other trustees were recorded as absent.

The board took one formal action: Mark Kincaid moved, and Earl Foster seconded, "to adopt an order canvassing the returns and declaring the results of the May 2, 2026 bond election." The motion was adopted. Vote as recorded in the minutes: Foster—Yes; Kincaid—Yes; Angela Moore—Absent; Ross Behrens—Absent; David Bennett—Absent; Suzanne Brown—Absent; Katy Duke—Absent. The minutes list the motion outcome as adopted and note the meeting was conducted in accordance with Texas Government Code Section 551. The board adjourned at 5:02 p.m.

The agenda included an open forum offering up to three minutes for citizen comments for items not on the agenda; the minutes state that no one signed up to speak during the designated signup window of 4:15–4:45 p.m. The minutes were submitted by Catherine Ullnich and show a later approval date of June 22, 2026. The meeting record gives the board's official action on the canvass but does not include vote totals beyond the two recorded yes votes and the listed absences, nor does it provide the detailed vote counts from the underlying May 2 election returns in the minutes.
