board vote
Governance body ballot
A board vote is a formal decision made by members of a governing body—typically a board of directors, school board, or similar committee.
The term emphasizes the collective, official nature of the action: The merger required a board vote.
Board votes follow established procedures and are recorded in minutes, distinguishing them from informal consensus or executive decisions.
