Board adopts Policy 2.10 change setting minimum fund balance at 1½ months

The Washington County School Board voted to revise Policy 2.10 to set the district’s minimum fund balance at one and a half months of operating expenses.

A board member moved the change, which was seconded; the clerk called the vote and members indicated assent. In the transcript the motion concluded with the chair and others saying, "Yes. All agree." The motion’s language, as introduced, specified the 1.5-month minimum.

Board members briefly discussed whether the action represented a first reading or a final adoption. The transcript records procedural clarification requests and the clerk’s role in calling the vote but does not include an extended debate over the policy’s long-term implications.

The board’s minutes will provide the formal ordinance or policy text and record whether the change was adopted on first reading or carried to a subsequent meeting for final adoption.
