Summary
Trustees approved multiple MOUs and renewals including a memorandum with the St. Joe Stewardship and Community Action Partnership with one abstention, a renewal with Northwest Missouri State University and an annual pool facility-use agreement with the city; votes were recorded and most motions passed unanimously.
The board approved several agreements on July 24, including program MOUs and a facility-use agreement with the city for the swimming pool at Missouri Western.
A memorandum of understanding between the district and St. Joe Stewardship and the Community Action Partnership (KAPPAN) was pulled from consent so a board member could abstain; the motion passed 5-0-1 (two abstentions recorded). The transcript shows the trustee who had been a former treasurer for KAPPAN abstained to avoid a conflict of interest.
The board also approved a renewal MOU with Northwest Missouri State University and another MOU for direct admissions; those motions passed with unanimous votes. Administrators told the board the pool facility-use agreement is a standard annual renewal; the city extended the term to two years to allow planning while a new pool project is developed, and the district signed the two-year agreement. Administrators said there were no significant substantive changes to the pool agreement.
Board members recorded standard roll-call votes for each approval.
