The Parkrose Board of Education begins this effort by acknowledging that we are gathering on the ancestral and unceded lands of the Chinook, Multnomah, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Cowlitz, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla and many other tribes who made their homes along the Columbia River in the Portland area.

For complaints against specific personnel, please follow the complaint policy KL found on the district webpage. Budget Secretary, do we have any requests for in-person public comment? (If yes, call the individual to the table & ask the Vice Chair to keep time... after the 3 minutes, pause for the Superintendent or any clarifying questions from the Committee... after that thank them for their comments. ((This is not a time for Committee Members to dialog with the public))

Script: Moving on now to written Public Comment (all members should have been emailed a link to the google form responses) We will now read them into the public record, remembering to skip any mentions of Parkrose personnel.

Subject:
12. Action Items 
Presenter:
Budget Chair Karen Sheley
Description:
Thank you for those public comments. A few procedural notes: A majority of the constituted committee is required for passing an action item. Majority for a 10-member budget committee is 6. Therefore, if only 6 members are present, a unanimous vote of 6 is needed for passing any action items (policy DBEA). This Committee will need 6 "I" votes to pass an action item. (the vacancy of Board Member position 1 or any committee member absences will not change the 6 votes required to pass an item.) Additionally, please note: abstentions count as a nay vote. Committee members are welcome to refer to the District Equity Lens while considering your votes tonight. It was linked on the agenda and available in print on the front table. One last procedural note: Once we continue to action items, discussion is not allowed until a motion has been made and seconded. We may not have a discussion without a motion and a second, so speak up now if you have further questions/comments.  (pause)
