B.14. Consent Calendar Review and Questions
Speaker(s):

Description:

Consent Calendar Review and Questions
President Jennifer Partridge

Issue
The Board of Education is required to approve items in the consent agenda as part of their legal responsibility.

Background
At every board meeting, items come to the agenda that need little if any discussion or debate either because they are routine procedures or already have unanimous consent. A consent agenda (Roberts Rules of Order calls it a consent calendar) allows the board to approve all these items together without discussion or individual motions. Depending upon the organization, this can free up anywhere from a few minutes to a half hour for more substantial discussion on other critical agenda items.

The consent calendar of the Board of Education of Provo School District contains routine items and reports related to approval of minutes, appointment or termination of employees, decisions related to school choice, the monthly financial report including purchases over $50,000, and other reports requiring no formal Board action.

At times, Board members have questions related to the consent calendar.  We encourage Board members to contact staff directly prior to the meeting to explore your questions.  However, to facilitate the efficiency of the regular Board meeting, staff desires to provide time for consent agenda questions (if any) during the study session.

Staff recommends Board members fully understand the contents of the consent calendar and recommends its approval; however, no Board action is permitted in the Board study session.
