The Governing Board held a regular meeting on July 15, 2025, at 6:05 PM, addressing several personnel matters, including resignations and waiver requests for liquidated damages.

The meeting commenced with the approval of the resignation of professional staff member Melissa Arrieta, who submitted her resignation effective June 27, 2025. The board unanimously approved the resignation with a vote of 4-0 after a motion and a second were made, followed by a call for discussion, which yielded no further comments.

Next, the board considered a request for a waiver of liquidated damages associated with Arrieta's resignation, as per policy GCQC. Arrieta requested a waiver for the $1,000 liquidated damages, which was deemed to meet the necessary criteria. The board again moved to approve the waiver request, which passed unanimously with a 4-0 vote.

The agenda then shifted to the resignation of another professional staff member, Samantha Alvarez, who also submitted her resignation effective June 27, 2025. Similar to Arrieta's case, the board approved Alvarez's resignation with a motion and second, resulting in another unanimous vote of 4-0.

Following this, the board reviewed Alvarez's request for a waiver of liquidated damages. However, this request was not approved, as it did not meet the required criteria despite documentation being submitted. A motion to deny the waiver request was made and seconded, leading to a brief discussion clarifying that the documentation provided did not support the waiver. The board voted 4-0 to deny the request.

In summary, the meeting addressed two resignations and their associated waiver requests, with both resignations approved and one waiver request denied due to insufficient documentation. The board's decisions reflect adherence to established policies regarding staff resignations and liquidated damages.
