Description:  It has been found and determined that in accordance with the policies and orders of the Board, the notice of this meeting was posted publicly at the Administration Building in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Texas Open Meetings Act, Texas Government Code, Section 551.001 et. seq., and that all of the terms of said article have been fully complied with and that the 72-hour notice required has been properly and correctly given.

Description:  At this time, the Board will listen to comments from the public and others regarding both agenda action items and items that are not on the agenda. No action may be taken on non-agenda items. Public participation is limited to the designated open forum portion of a regular meeting. No presentation shall exceed a maximum of five minutes. Delegations of more than five persons shall appoint one person to present their views before the Board. COMPLAINTS AGAINST SPECIFIC EMPLOYEES OR INDIVIDUALS ARE NOT ALLOWED. THESE COMPLAINTS ARE COVERED BY A SEPARATE POLICY. Members of the public will not be allowed to offer comments on agenda action items when that item is on the floor for discussion unless requested to do so by the President of the Board. This audience participation period is not the appropriate means for bringing complaints for which resolution is sought.

Description:  The Board of Trustees have been supplied detailed background information regarding each item of business on the “Consent Agenda” if one is so indicated, or it has been discussed at a previous meeting of the Board. All items will be acted upon by one vote without being discussed separately. If requested by a Board member, individual items may be removed from the “Consent Agenda” to be discussed and voted upon separately. All items are as recommended by the Superintendent.
