The Cohoes City School District board removed item 8C from the consent agenda on Dec. 10 for a separate vote. The Deputy Clerk read the resolution: the board would appoint individuals to listed winter coaching positions for the 2025‑26 school year, contingent on acceptable program enrollment and per the CPA contract.
On the roll call for approval of item 8C, votes recorded in the public meeting were: Mr. Jackson — Yes; Mrs. Snyder — Yes; Mrs. Paradis — Yes; Mrs. Brewer — No; and Mrs. Gillard — Yes. With that tally, the board carried item 8C and the coaching appointments listed in the resolution will stand contingent upon enrollment and contract conditions.
The board then moved to adopt the remainder of the consent agenda (resolutions 7A–M, 8A–B, 8D–K, and 9A); a second was recorded and multiple members voiced approval during the roll call. The transcript records a partial roll call on that motion; full roll‑call details were not captured in the public transcript excerpt.
No additional debate on individual coaching appointments was recorded during the separate vote.
