RESOLUTION #1995-14, SuPerintendent of Schools Position eliminated A letter was received from County Auditor Michael Montplaisir formally notifying the board of the resignation of Leon Johnson as Cass County Superintendent of Schools effective August 1, 1995. County Coordinator Bonnie Johnson said the State Legislature, in their last session, gave counties the option of eliminating this position. Cass County would be the first county in the State of North Dakota to take such action if approved today. In his letter, Mr. Montplaisir recommends that the Cass County Commission eliminate this position, and he outlined the procedure to be followed. MOTION, passed Mr. Wieland moved and Mrs. Toussaint seconded to approve Resolution #1995-14 and to forward the resolution to the presidents of the school boards whose districts include land in Cass County; and upon approval from the various school board presidents, file the resolution with the North Dakota Legislative Council. Discussion: Mr. Eckert suggested obtaining approval from the two or three outlying school districts which have some land in Cass County. Mrs. Johnson said Cass County has responsibility for nine school districts which are located within Cass County's boundaries. Since the County Auditor has already received approval from eight of the nine school districts contacted, the State's Attorney said a majority have already approved the action. At the call for the question and on roll call vote, motion carried unanimously.
