IX.E. Consideration and Possible Action to Approve a Rate for Payment for Accumulated Leave Upon Retirement Presenter: Rick Kirkpatrick Description: In 2025, the Board approved a revision to policy DEC(LOCAL) allowing for payment at a rate determined by the board for local accumulated leave. At the time this was approved, the board discussed paying $75 per accumulated local leave day, assuming the retiree met all requirements set forth in the policy. At this time, we need to set the rate for the upcoming school year. This rate will remain in place until the board makes a change. I recommend staying with the original $75 per accumulated local leave day.
