Last Night’s Meeting
I’m out the door quite early this morning on a business trip. I’ll try and update you with a more detailed post soon.
For now, here’s a quick update: the meeting went from 4 to 11:30. The board voted 6-1 to issue the layoff notices required to balance the budget, but instructed staff to prepare options for saving the automotive, construction and agriculture job training programs.
All in all, we had 85 public comment speakers and I cast four of the toughest votes I’ve ever had to cast. It was a long night, but we laid the foundation for a sustainable Sierra College budget.
More soon.
