11.1. New Format for Accepting Donations
|
|
|
Description:
Historically, SWMetro has considered and accepted donations on the agenda under Action Items. In consultation with the Minnesota School Boards Association and some of our member districts, we found that donations may also be accepted under the consent agenda with a single resolution accepting all donations. This will save time for our Board while meeting obligations in terms of formally accepting donations. The individual donations will still be read aloud and acknowledged and the Board may, as always, pull any donation or other consent item for individual consideration and action.
