Following an executive session, the Riverside Local School District Board of Education approved a pre-discipline/pre-termination meeting conference demand directed at Dr. Christopher J. Rotino. The board voted 3–1 to authorize the treasurer to serve the notice electronically and provide proof of delivery.

The resolution, read into the record by the presiding officer, directs the treasurer to serve the pre-discipline, pre-termination meeting conference demand upon Dr. Christopher J. Rotino immediately and incorporates an attached notice into the record. Roll call showed three ayes and one nay. A brief, emotional exchange followed the vote, with at least one attendee in the room calling the action 'shameful.'

The executive session before the action was described in open session as consecutive sessions to consider employment dismissal, discipline, demotion and compensation of a public employee and to confer with the board’s attorney on imminent court action under statutory citations read at the meeting. The board returned from executive session and took the personnel action in open session with formal vote.
