WHAT (the board is asked to discuss, receive, approve, or adopt)
The Governing Board is asked to approve the attached list of warrants issued during the month of November 2021.

WHY (briefly explain why the action or discussion is important; and if applicable, how it is connected to site, district, or strategic plans)
Education Code section 17605 allows the District’s Board to “adopt a rule, delegating to any officer or employee…the authority to purchase supplies, materials, apparatus, equipment, and services” that do not exceed the amount specified in section 20111 of the Public Contract Code. However, Education Code 35161 requires the Board to retain “ultimate responsibility over the performance of those powers or duties so delegated”. As a result, it is recommended that the Governing Board ratify or approve actions taken by the designees.

STRATEGIC PLAN/PRIORITY AREA:
Applied to the "Fiscal Integrity of the District" portion of the Strategic Plan

HISTORY (list previous staff or board action(s) with dates if possible)

This issue was discussed at the February 27, 2014 Board meeting. It was agreed that the Warrant listings would come to the Board for review and approval on a monthly basis.

For November 2021, the District issued 264 warrants totaling $2,767,198.63.
