Okay, welcome and happy new year. This is the reorganization regular meeting of the Bin Township Board of Education held for the purpose of election of officers, appointments, and transacting appropriate board business in compliance with chapter 31 laws of 1975. The notice
of this meeting was advertised in Mars County Daily Record. Copies of the agenda of this meeting were appropriately posted and made available to the public. Uh we have the three office the three board members. We swore them in before the meeting. So, we're all set to go. That's Mr. Brander was
reelected. We have Mr. Hittinger and Mr. Rosenberg, our new board members. So, the uh the terms of the uh the election out there, Mr. Brener received 1195 votes as I reported back in November. Um M. Mr. Hinger 108 votes,

reorganization meeting, there is not a uh president and a vice president at this time. So one of the most important things we we conduct at this meeting is the election of officers. So at this point I will take a nomination for the office of president.

or second. Any discussion? >> Do you have to have negotiations this year or have it? >> Well, those are standing committees. So, you generally will fill those positions in case something comes up. You could have things that you have to do with the
malice agreement. You have things that you might be able to do with the BTA negotiations where something might pop up. So, it's better to have a standing committee already set than to try to, you know, scram. >> Okay. discussion. >> Yeah. Were we talking about maybe
collapsing policy and governance wasn't policy? like one of the some of the committ >> there were some discussions about that but there was some differencing
them up next to each other so >> so more more nights out >> I think that's where we came at the end we're not going to collect Last back to back. Okay. I got to be less stressed. >> Any other discussion? Okay. Mr. Wolf.

appointment. Some of these are uh timely. You have things on here like school boards association representative Mount Lakes. That person uh if on that uh in that role would also have to be sworn into that board and some other
items representative to the education service commission. So if anybody would like to take a look at this to see if they want to fill their names in I think last year and the year before we were pretty good about getting it all done here. So A1 is the appointment for U
foundation education foundation. >> Yeah, I'll I'll primary secondary >> I can be your secondary. >> Okay. Yeah. Okay.
A1. A2 is the educational service commission. I volunteer to continue doing that. A3 A3 is the primary representative to the home school association. >> Just continue.

>> Okay. the township green team. >> I could fight. >> Yeah. >> Best contest probably. >> Yes. >> If you ask her if you ask her what's going on
and Mrs. No last year was the >> You can I was going to say if you want to do it, I would do it. You want to do it? That's up. >> I'll put my name down. Okay. >> And then the last one is the advisory to
the township special education advisory group. Mrs. last year there's no interest. I can do it. Anybody for
unnecessary equity? Okay. So, with all those names put in there, I would need a motion. >> Can I uh we have some discussion before? There's one thing I want to change on the mountain lakes if everybody's okay
with it. So we are we >> do we have to move forward. It's related to this. So it's related to A5 A5. >> Okay. So the issue is the sequencing of the meetings in January. Their reorg
meeting is before ours. So I'd like to propose a motion that with A5 it's one calendar a year and the reorg meeting. So that way we have a rep because I was locked out if you will of the pre-ord meeting because when is when was the
reorder? It's always Monday. Ours is on Wednesday. So it's always before ours. So the sequence is we have no rep for that meeting because I'm technically not the rep. >> So my proposal is to do it for one calendar year in the rework meeting
>> as long as as long as the person is returning. Yeah, >> if the person is not reelected then obviously it just goes blank. >> Well, generally you know by stash if you could like as as today you're taking office as a board member. The same thing happens on their board unfortunately. I mean they can be sworn in at any time
there. It doesn't have to be at that meeting but I see what you're saying. >> Yeah. >> But I think it really statutoily it's your term starts on >> probably starts this past Monday. Yeah, I see what >> I did brief this with them. Yeah, or go
over it with them and they were like, we're fine with it. I think they they were going to discuss with their attorney. They didn't seem to have any issues with it and they get that there's a gap and it's an awkward gap. >> The problem is you have to be right >> until the next our reopening is after their reopening. So,
>> so until today you >> I can't be the rep. Exactly. So, it's it's a three-day gap. It's a Monday to it ends in December 31st. Their reorg meeting is like January 4th. Ours is January 7th. So, we've got a gap where I can't attend. I was like I couldn't go
into their clothes. >> They always work before. >> How about the end of your organization as so long as he's a board member? >> That's what I'm saying. So, as long as the person that you spot is a recurring returning board member who's been elected, >> they should just have I'm just proposing one more meeting, the reorg meeting in that.
>> It's really days. >> It's just days. How would you how would you >> or we could say like four days or something? I don't know. >> Three of the organization meeting. How would you know? You're you're being appointed today. >> It's not it's not me. It's that role. So it's not Chris thing. It's a role
>> Maybe it's the calendar year plus seven just to give us a >> Yeah. Give you a week seven days just to buffer whoever >> or through through you know until the reorganization. So long as he's a board member. >> Yeah. Something like that works. Next year. Yes.
>> Let's say let's say next year and not >> but I would be for that meeting. That way we have a rep at the meeting and then I don't get appointed or if somebody else does they're the rep at the next meeting. It's totally >> then they go into close.
>> They went to an hour and a half. >> Do you tell them I want to be on that committee? Because that's >> No. Uh they do that after. They don't do their committees there. They do the committees after it's literally they appoint the president, the vice president, they go into close, they come back, they appoint the committee. So
they say they they uh kick off the committees and now they >> What about if we do our reorg reorganization meeting on that Monday before that? >> We can't they do it on the Monday right after the new year. We unless you do >> then you're talking about our board
changing. >> Yeah. It's really just it's a simple motion to put in that says it's just a calendar year and like either plus 7 or until the next reord meeting, right? Uh as long as that person is as a board member. >> Yeah, technically as a board member the
terms are done December 31st. That's the calendar. >> But can't we dictate an extra couple days? >> I don't know the answer to that question. >> Yeah, so long as long as he's a board member. So if you have a three, you know, if his term is December 31st. >> No, no, no. What he's saying is if if I
was not up if I was election this year and I decided not to run, we need some leak language that says I cannot return, then it's a >> that's where so long as you're a board member, you're not a board member. >> The answer and the ship is sailed for this year. Can you look into it for this year?
>> Definitely. I mean, you got that, >> but I mean, you don't you don't want to not do it because you need a rep to this and then tweet. >> We'll find out. We'll catch up. >> I would like to if we could put the language in pending legal review with
Matt or something like that. They're reviewing it with their attorney. I just want to put it in so that we've got the option so that we have they're okay. They want they have to sit in the audience next. >> Yeah. this next meeting. >> We just
>> or can I make an adjustment next? >> You can we can certainly kick it down, but you're not you wouldn't be representing Boot Township for until the next come and >> change. Who are you going to check?
>> I'll check with the attorney. Because if you have the language in there, so long as you're a board member, if you're not if you're not elected, you're not you can't be >> you're not appointed to the board today appoints you as you're not a board
member until you're sworn in today. Now, if we had on the first of the all depends on when you're sworn in as a board member, we could have had our meeting on January second. >> Okay. So >> and then I'll call I'll second do it when it's time.
>> So we have A1 through A9. I have a motion. >> I'll second. >> Any discussion? Further discussion. Okay. Mr. Roll call. Mrs. Barta. >> Yes. >> Mr. Brandon. >> Yes. >> Mr. Cabana. >> Yes. >> Mr. Chen. >> Yes. >> Mr. Ger.
>> Yes. >> Mr. Johnson. >> Yes. >> Mr. McCry. >> Yes. >> Mr. Mills. >> Yes. >> And Mr. version. >> Yes. >> Okay. Uh the one portion of the meeting I forgot because I slipped ahead was that asking the board member permission or what they're if they'd like me to
continue on with the meeting after after the officers are appointed. So I think we're kind of the horse is out of the norm. But would you like me to continue? >> Would you like to continue or president could easily, you know, take over? >> I'll take over next time. >> Okay. All right. Uh at this point, we
are at uh open session number one. It's the reorganization meeting only. So if any members of the public uh this period is limited to reorganization agenda only, please state your name. Address for the record. All comments are limited to 5 minutes. That's only on this

Hopefully, the warmer weather and warmer temperature is expected toward the end of this week without remaining snow. So
the students can get back out on the playground and back and the building system, the heating system appears all to be working. There's one issue in the upper gym with rooftop unit that needs to be addressed. I'm in the current process of securing a contractor to
investigate the issues. And that was my report, superintendent's report. >> Thank you. Um since it was just holiday break, I was something small and just a couple of reminders. Uh we ended school um back in December with the holiday

it's been you know question how do you make these decisions I talk with the surrounding superintendents in the evening and all throughout the night. Uh we consult with multiple websites and providers. I talk with the buildings and grounds people, our road maintenance department, Robert Rizzo, the police, and I also drive around and check the
conditions myself. So, make sure it's safe for not only the students, but for commuters who are coming, faculty members who are coming into the building. Uh the announcements that I have as reminders. Uh there's the survey that I sent out uh through the newsletter, through announcements at board meetings and our website and

>> They have your email. So I think it gets translated down to >> it might take a little bit weeks. Um, but just so you know, when you register for these meetings, it'll show a fee, but it's there's no trade. It should zero out by the time you log in.
>> So, if you log yourself, >> you can go to all of them. You don't have to be a go for many years to know other board members come too. They're a great way to network with other board members from towns and they always have presentations on stuff of interest to all of us. So,

three is closed. Is there any toll business to come? >> I have one thing. Um, just a hand off that's going to happen. Barry, have you heard back from New Jersey school board training? >> March, I believe it was. Yes, March.
>> Yeah, March was the earliest the January February conflict, but March is the ear. and and maybe that actually certification >> we have four times.
>> Okay. So we need we usually get three >> one one hour training one hour some meetings six hours of >> Yeah. So we we we got to get those >> I think it's 10 credits through >> okay no worries roughly how far off
>> okay I think you have many years >> not all one year three years >> we have time but we still need to get >> so they were set for March 18 that's our next meeting >> yes >> okay and that was on the topic
>> I We have to get 10 more credit hours by May 8th of 2027. So that's >> year and a half every other. So like if we do training at the board like usually the NGS people come and do
training under governance or find for finance whatever >> negotiation do negotiations whatever we want like there's a ton of competence whatever >> uh but if you do a certain amount then you get certified like there's certain levels this one would be I guess the
highest certification level which not actually the purpose of that certification is >> that's a recognition within within the state that shows that you're very police board. You work towards certain credits to get the that's in addition to the mandated training you have as a board
member. So as a board you have you have a New Jersey rep come in provide training but also additional training some of the county meet county meetings might give credit for that. >> Yeah Morris County has the most Carol E. Marson
>> um certified boards. It's it's a pretty um good county. We might was the first to get it. One of the first. >> We were one of the first and now >> we may be the first to get it. >> We can get it twice. >> But I think not let it lapse. >> We talked about as a board goal setting
too that it's good that we want teachers continue education and that's a goal within there. So the board also wants to show that we lead by example and we want to continue education. So that's another reason why. So to answer answer the question, you have different levels and
we achieved the first level and the Carol Lson just shows that you've gone through additional training as any other old business hearing none. Any new business? I'll say something like I would like to
thank you all for over these many years for your support and you know being the board president. Um as the order will know it takes all of you to make us a great board, not just one person. And so you all know that already and I I will do everything I can to support Lauren and her her new endeavor and and the board and I look forward to doing so.
Thank you. >> Thank you very service on many many boards including this one and all your toutelage and also I think it's important to recognize people who chose to write in candidacy since there were vacancies. I think it's
wonderful. So thank you guys and welcome. agree and thank our community board members for your service and Barry definitely for your long service as president. You've been through a lot of school through a lot so much appreciated. >> Now you can sleep.
>> He's going to join another >> Congress. You can make a motion do it under let's do it under do it under it's other board action but we can do that prior to going into close session. We'll do that. Okay. >> So we'll change the order of the agenda.
Item number 26 is other board action. We're going to take a motion from the floor to affirm >> affirm or deny the HIV. >> Do we need a motion to move the position of it? >> No.
>> So that's not to >> this first reporting was last meeting, >> right? >> So you want to affirm the super >> decision. It's under 26. Is it not It's not >> adding a motion

that warrant confidentiality as permitted in the Open Public Meeting Act, chapter 231 of the laws of 1975. These matters may or may not be made public when the board convenes. They will be made public when the confidentiality of the subject is
warranted and I believe we have legal matters. All right. And no board action will be taken out of close session. So thank you to the public for coming in and participating and uh good evening. So the board can enter into close session.
So I will entertain a motion for that to go. So I'll second. All those in favor >> no extensions. >> Thank you. >> Okay. It is now 8:42. The board is now back in open session. We do have one
item to cover. Uh each year the uh the board receives the code of ethics that are developed by the school boards association that board members live by. So we usually do an exercise at this meeting where we go around the table. Each board member will uh will read one
of the items and we'll just go around the table. We'll start with Mr. Chen. >> Uh okay. First one. I will uphold and enforce all laws, state board rules and regulations and court orders pertaining to schools. Desire changes shall be brought about only through legal and ethical procedures. I will make decisions in terms of the
educational welfare of children and will seek to develop and maintain public schools which meet the individual needs of all children regardless of their ability, race, creed, sex or social standing. Oh, and finally warning the policy making thing in appraisal. I will be and
I will help to policy plans only consulting those who will be affected by them. >> I will carry out my responsibility not to admin administer the schools but together with my fellow board members to see that they are welcome. >> I will recognize that authority rests
with the board of education and will make no personal promises nor take in any private action that may compromise the board. I will refuse to surrender my independent judgment to special interest or partisan political groups or to use the schools for personal gain or for the gain of friends.
>> I will hold confidential all matters pertaining to the schools which if disclosed would needlessly injure individuals or the schools in all other matters I will provide accurate information and in concert with my fellow board members interpret to the
staff the aspirations of the community for its schools. I will vote to appoint the best qualified personnel available after consideration of the recommendation of the superintendent/acincipal. >> I will support and protect school personnel on proper performance of their
duties. >> I'll be done. I will refer all complaints to the superintendent principal and will act on such complaints at public failure of the administrative resolution. >> Okay. Thank you very much board. So there is no other board action to come uh before the board.
Um I would need a motion to adjourn. >> I'll make that motion. >> I'll second that. >> All those in favor? I >> nos abstensions.
