There is a special board meeting on Friday, June 30, 2023 to hire an interim superintendent. Here is the agenda.
My best guess is that this meeting is necessary because, technically, Superintendent Moore can't formally do the job until the 21 day wait has expired. An interim would be needed to do the work of a superintendent if DeSpain's resignation is already effective or would be effective the last day of this month, June 30.
My understanding is that an interim would have the same authority as the permanent superintendent. Back in 2019, it was an interim superintendent, Johnny Clawson, who signed the contracts for the Phase 1 bond construction with WBK Construction. Mr. Clawson was pleasant enough, but the contract didn't have any teeth in it for delay penalties. So, an interim superintendent can really tie the hands of the permanent.
This interim superintendent needs to start praying for clear skies. Here is my video of the July 1, 2020 flood. So, we do get summer floods. This video is from BEFORE City Gym was completed. Now that the gym is complete, the next one will be far worse.
Here is some good info on how to purchase FEMA flood insurance for my downstream neighbors. I have this flood insurance and encourage everyone in the downstream area to purchase it ASAP. You will not be turned down, but there is a 30 day waiting period after purchase before the policy is effective.
