There's an easy way find out when the Board of Trustees took action on an item and what that action was through a new feature on the BOT Web site. Click on "Actions Index" under "Links" on the left to get to a page where you can search by keyword, category, meeting date, meeting year or action number. The search results will provide a list of links to a PDF form of the minutes for the meeting(s) in which the requested action(s) are referenced. Click on the link(s) to the desired minutes. Within the minutes document, you can search using the binoculars icon or "Control F." The Actions Index can be used only for items that have been assigned an action number. To search for an information or discussion item, use the same page to request the minutes from any meeting and then search within the document.
