Date / Time: 2026-03-24 — 06:00 PM

Meeting Type: Board Meeting

Official agenda on district site: Simbli eBoard meeting page

What happened

The March 24 board meeting (held immediately following a Special Meeting / Budget Hearing on the proposed FY27 property-tax levy) ratified the FY26-27 Budget Actions by a 5–2 vote — Directors Finch and Lingo voted no. Finch's stated reason on the record: 'I'm just still not seeing a clear effort to rebuild trust and acknowledge the seriousness of the situation by leadership.' Director Eastham explained his yes vote in the context of community members of color and their different relationship to district leadership accountability.

Other actions. The Arab American Heritage Month resolution (originated by Director Finch and discussed at the March 10 meeting) was adopted unanimously. 51 supporting documents — the second-largest agenda of the year. Capital projects work continued. The earlier Special Meeting / Budget Hearing (separate meeting, same date) hosted the statutory public hearing on the proposed property-tax levy.
