Members of the Board and trustees-elect Holmes and McKie,
I urge you to cancel the Sept. 22 Special-Called board meeting and place the superintendent's contract discussion and decision on the agenda of the Regular Meeting for September 28.
Since it is the public that pays the superintendent's compensation, please allow the public's input through Public Participation, not just individual emails and telephone calls that don't get compiled and publicized.
You can avoid the illusion of subterfuge, collusion and conspiracy by conducting the business of the School Board with complete transparency and by answering fully to the public on September 28.
If the Sept. 22 meeting is not canceled, I urge Trustees Agostini, Scott and McFadden not to attend the meeting, resulting in no quorum.
If the Sept. 22 meeting is held, the legal members of the board (Agostini, Scott, McFadden, Manning, Caution-Parker) will constitute a quorum. Holmes and McKie are not legitimate members of the board and should not be present or voting.
A legal vote by the five legal members of the board might look like this:
Motion to approve the superintendent's revised contract:
Yea: Caution-Parker, Manning
Nay: Agostini, Scott, McFadden
Result: 2-3. Motion fails
I request a trustee at the Sept. 28 meeting to make a motion to allow the board to respond to public comments and questions at that meeting.
Sincerely,
Gus Philpott
