No action taken on motion Busing for CtK students remains

Following the expectation of local trustee, Irene McCauley, Halton District Catholic School Board trustees took no action at Tuesday's board meeting on a previously tabled motion regarding Christ the King School busing for Georgetown South students. In February, McCauley tabled a motion to review the busing for these students as an exception to the board's transportation policy, until a legal opinion was obtained on a 2002 motion that provides the busing based on safety hazards. In a memo the board's solicitor stated the 2002 motion "is a valid and standing motion and that all subsequent motions related under the previously tabled motion heading of Policy Exceptions were submitted (by staff) in error." Tuesday's action-- or lack of it-- means that busing will continue for Georgetown South students, and will not be considered again when annual reviews of the transportation policy exceptions are done.
