Board approves Viloria contract amendment 4–1; Perry dissents

Vote 4-1

At its June 23, 2022 regular meeting, the LBUSD Board of Education approved a contract amendment for Superintendent Jason Viloria on a 4–1 vote, raising his base salary from $322,149 to $331,813 (a 3% increase) and continuing a $1,000 monthly allowance for cell phone, internet, and related expenses, plus retirement and health benefits. Per the Laguna Beach Independent, Trustee Dee Perry was the dissenting vote. The board acted without first conducting a year-end performance evaluation of the superintendent; per then-Board President Carol Normandin, schedule conflicts had prevented board members from meeting to evaluate Viloria's performance ahead of the June 23 meeting. The board resolution attached to the action stated: "It is the Board's goal to provide stability and continuity in the operational and instructional programs of the District, and, consistent with such goal, the Board agrees that the Superintendent shall be compensated for his longevity with the District." The action is the earliest documented Perry dissent on Viloria compensation.
