关于董事会审批程序

The 西雅图 皇冠买球平台推荐 generally holds two Regular Board meetings each month September through June, and at least 一个 monthly year-round. During Regular Board 会议, the Board takes public testimony and votes to take most final actions. 然而, Board 讨论ions regarding items approved during Regular Board meetings often begin weeks earlier through the Board’s committee review process, which also includes meetings open for public attendance. Information is included here to support the public in tracking items throughout this extended process.

发展理事会行动报告

When an item is brought to the Board for action, a Board Action Report (BAR) is drafted, along with any accompanying Board policy or other attachments as needed. Often these documents are prepared by staff, but Directors also may develop Board Action Reports, generally to revise or adopt policies and resolutions. 通常, these proposed Board Action Reports are next placed on an agenda for the relevant Board committee to review, 讨论, and recommend action by the full Board (见董事会政策编号. 1240年,委员会, for the scope of each committee’s charge and exceptions to the standard committee review process).

委员会审查过程

Board committees meet monthly (with the exception of July) in public meetings to review Board Action Reports and decide whether to move them forward to the full Board, with a committee recommendation for “approval,”或“考虑.” Board Action Reports moved forward “for consideration” often include items that require substantive edits prior to introduction to the Board.

Committee meeting agendas are posted online, and the full committee meeting packets available from the 皇冠买球平台推荐 Office by 电子邮件请求.

Regular Board Meeting Agendas and Use of the Consent Agenda

Board Action Reports that move out of committee are placed on draft Regular Board Meeting agendas developed by the 皇冠买球平台推荐 Office. These draft agendas are then reviewed and finalized by the 执行委员会, which sets two Regular Board meeting agendas at each of the committee’s monthly meetings. 通常, Board Action Reports are scheduled to first be introduced at 一个 Regular Board meeting, and voted on at the next Regular Board meeting. 当一个项目被引入时, 由工作人员提供, and Directors have the opportunity to ask questions and 讨论, 但是没有采取任何行动. The public also has the opportunity at this point, and during all Regular Board meetings, to provide feedback by signing up to provide public testimony.

介绍后, the Board Action item is then generally scheduled for a vote  during the next Regular Board meeting. The 执行委员会 determines whether each item scheduled for a vote will be included as an Action Item that is 讨论ed and voted on individually or whether it should be included in the Consent Agenda. 每 董事会政策没有. 1420年,提出议程 & 同意议程, a Consent Agenda is used to expedite business at Regular Board meetings by having the Board approve multiple items with 一个 motion and vote. The use of a Consent Agenda is best practice for governing bodies (See more information on using a Consent Agenda to streamline meetings from the Municipal Research Services Center). The Student Outcomes Focused Governance Manual, developed by the Council of Great City 学校 and AJ Crabill, advises that all consent-eligible items should be placed on a Consent Agenda in order to focus Board meeting time on improving student outcomes (See the Board-adopted student outcomes goals and guardrails).

When an item is placed on the 同意议程, it may be removed by any member of the Board during the Regular Board meeting. Any items removed from the Consent Agenda are 讨论ed and voted on individually later in the meeting.

Action Items listed as “Introduction & Action” on Regular Board meeting agendas are items for which immediate action is in the best interest of the district. These items are placed directly on a Regular Board meeting agenda for both the initial presentation to the Board and a vote. These items are not generally placed on the Consent Agenda.
