Public accountability

Agenda items.Votes explained.

I will use this page to discuss Palo Verde Community College District agenda items, record how I voted, and explain the reasons for my decisions.

Agenda item 12.4Vote: NO

CircleIn Agreement

I voted NO because I had concerns about student privacy, data security, and how student information would be retained and protected under the agreement.

Agenda item 12.10Vote: NO

Revised/New Management Job Descriptions.

Voted NO on a package of new and revised management job descriptions. I believed Palo Verde College already had too many management positions and that resources should be prioritized toward direct student services, instruction, access, and student success.

Agenda item 11.2Vote: NO on each contract

Ger Xiong and Irma Gonzalez Employment Contracts

I voted NO on each contract because I believed the salaries were too high for the positions and the duties outlined. I voted on principle, exercising my independent judgment as a board member rather than voting for the sake of unity.

My Voting Record

Recorded votes from March 2026 onward, checked against the District’s posted minutes on September 16, 2026. Consent items approved together are listed under their single recorded motion. Recusals and votes not recorded are shown in the Board record below.
