§ 2029 Board Trustee Voting Rules

• •Most of the board members must be present to make decisions.
• •Decisions need more 'yes' votes than 'no' votes from the members who are there.
• •The board can only make decisions by following official steps like voting on rules or plans.
• •The board must write down everything they decide, including how they spend money.
• •The board must have clear rules for how they run their meetings.

A school board is deciding whether to buy new computers for the school.

At least half of the board members must be at the meeting to even talk about it. If most of the members at the meeting vote 'yes,' then they can buy the computers. They have to write down their decision and how much they spent. They also need to follow their own meeting rules, like letting everyone speak before voting.
