Burnet CISD trustees hold required team-building workshop during special meeting

The Burnet Consolidated I.S.D. Board of Trustees convened a special meeting Dec. 8 in the district board room, where trustees took part in a required team-building workshop facilitated by David Young of Pfluger Architects. Board President Earl Foster called the meeting to order at 5:02 p.m. and "stated that a quorum of Board members was present and that the meeting had been duly called and posted in accordance with Texas Government Code, Section 551."

According to the minutes, the first item was an Open Forum during which "no one signed up to speak," so the board received no public comments. The minutes identify trustees present as Earl Foster (president), Angela Moore (vice president), Mark Kincaid (secretary), Ross Behrens, Katy Duke, David Bennett and Suzanne Brown. The substantive portion of the evening was the required Board Team Building Workshop conducted by David Young of Pfluger Architects. The meeting adjourned at 8:00 p.m.

The minutes record that they were submitted by Cathenne Winch and later approved on Dec. 15, 2025. The meeting notice and Foster's announcement referenced compliance with Texas Government Code, Section 551 (the state open meetings law) regarding proper posting and call procedures. No motions, votes, or formal policy actions are recorded in the minutes for this special session.

The workshop appears to have fulfilled the board's training requirement; the minutes do not specify follow-up tasks, budget items, or additional public hearings. The district did not receive public comment during the designated sign-up period for the meeting.
