I will be voting against this. It is superfluous. We've already called on her (Kay) to remain until a change.

My understanding is that this contract has been funded for the current fiscal year, so this is legitimately before us, in my opinion. My concern about adding staff is that you're splitting the chain of command. If it's this board's position to reject this contract for the current fiscal year, then it's incumbent upon us to begin the process of adding to staff.

I don't think that we have anything in place about interim. What we have is silent on the issue of interim. We have to bridge the gap. Two times in the last eight months, we've been hit with vacancies. There should be a framework as to how we should proceed.
