Georgetown ISD board approves amended consent items, including construction bond funds
Summary
On Oct. 20, 2025, the Georgetown ISD Board of Trustees approved amended consent items — removing library materials for later consideration — and approved Budget Amendment No. 3 and construction bond funds for in‑building work by a 6–0 vote with one absent.
The Georgetown ISD Board of Trustees approved amended consent items at its Oct. 20, 2025 regular meeting, including Budget Amendment No. 3 for 2025–26 and an item approving construction bond funds for in‑building work.
The minutes record that Board President James Scherer asked to remove Consent Item D, “Approval of Library Materials,” from the consent list and to include it on the agenda for the next meeting. "A motion was made to approve the amended Consent Items by Jen Mauldin, seconded by Stacy McLaughlin:" the meeting minutes state. The motion passed with six yes votes and one absence (Stephanie Blanck).
The approved consent package, as recorded in the minutes, included: Minutes of Previous Board Meetings; Financial Reports; Budget Amendment No. 3 for 2025–26; and Consideration and Action to Approve Construction Bond Funds for In‑Building. The record does not include detailed line‑item figures for the budget amendment or a staff presentation on the bond‑fund allocations in the minutes for this item.
The minutes show Jen Mauldin as the motion’s mover and Stacy McLaughlin as seconder. Votes recorded were: James Scherer — Yes; Jen Mauldin — Yes; Stephanie Blanck — Absent; Rachel Gallardo — Yes; Stacy McLaughlin — Yes; Anthony Blankenship — Yes; Cody Hirt — Yes.
A clerical inconsistency appears in the document: the attendance list notes Stephanie Blanck as not in attendance/absent, and the vote record lists her as absent; a later line in the minutes lists names including "Stephanie Blanck" with the label "Board Secretary," which conflicts with the absence notation. The minutes do not resolve that discrepancy; the vote record above is the basis for reporting the outcome.
