To expedite the Board's proceedings and provide a framework for the orderly conduct of business, the superintendent in cooperation with the Board president shall prepare an agenda outlining the matters to be brought to Board attention at meetings.
The Board shall follow the order of business set by the agenda (posted online) unless the order is altered, or new items added by vote of the Board during the meeting. At regular and special meetings, the Board only may add to or take action on matters not appearing on the posted agenda if the item is reasonably related to a subject matter on the posted agenda or if an exigency exists. A majority vote of Board members present is required to amend the agenda of a regular board meeting. All Board members must be present and cast a unanimous vote to amend the agenda of a special meeting.
II. Consent Grouping
A consent grouping on the agenda primarily shall be used for those items which usually do not require further discussion or explanation as to the reason for Board action. Any Board member may request the withdrawal of any item under the consent grouping for independent consideration.
III. Agenda Format
The order of business at all regular meetings typically shall be as follows:
