Item 5.16 caught my eye. It is “trustees’ requests for attending conferences.”
What with the economy tanking, you'd think these people would minimize conference plane travel in order to reduce costs. It does appear that most trustees have done exactly that.
But there is one request. It concerns the following conference:
Association of Governing Boards, ORLANDO, FLORIDA (3/19-3/23)Naturally, the “Chancellor recommends that the BOT approve/ratify the Trustees’ requests….”
No information is provided concerning which trustee or trustees requested funds for the Orlando conference. The estimated cost: $2,000 per person.
Trustee John Williams, who has family in Florida, has attended several district-paid-for conferences in Florida--usually in Orlando.
