Board adopts automated stop‑arm camera policy consistent with AB 527
Summary
The Board approved Board Policy 816 on second reading to implement an automated school bus stop‑arm camera system consistent with 2025 Assembly Bill 527 and NRS Chapter 392. The district currently operates two buses with GateKeeper cameras and will pursue an MOU with the sheriff's office and vendor procedures.
Trustees unanimously approved Board Policy 816 on its second reading to implement an automated school bus stop‑arm camera system. The policy is designed to comply with Assembly Bill 527 (2025) and related Nevada Revised Statutes in NRS Chapter 392; the policy review included operational details and next steps for an MOU with the county sheriff regarding vendor processes.
Jeannie Dwyer, Executive Director of Human Resources, told trustees the district already has two buses equipped with cameras and is using the GateKeeper system; she also confirmed with district staff that the stop‑arm should be deployed when students are loading and unloading. During public comment, Cheryl Blomstrom urged drivers to use the stop‑arm consistently because commuters were reported to be passing stopped school buses. The Board approved the policy 6-0 on second reading.
