Board policy requires directors to place items on the Agenda a week ahead of the meeting. Thus Kelley needed a majority of the board to vote to place her motions on the Agenda. Her motions were prompted by community reaction at the prior afternoon's meeting and thus could not have been submitted a week earlier. Reid Sterrett seconded her motion to place the items on the Agenda. It failed, with Kelley, Sterrett, and Coleburn voting Yes; Cook, Duffy, Stachurski, and Venit voting No.

Venit's vote was surprising. Immediately after Kelley was turned down, the board approved an Agenda change to add Venit's marketing report to the agenda. Venit should have voted to allow Kelley's items to be placed on the Agenda. It is likely they would have been voted down anyway, but at least the board would have discussed the items and gone on the record with a vote.

Kelley believes OPA is now throwing good money after bad since the cost of the new Community Center came in at $6 million.
