PHOENIXVILLE — A week after voting against a fact-finding report in its ongoing negotiations with the Phoenixville Area Education Association, the Phoenixville Area School Board approved the recommendations in a required second vote.

In a quick 6-3 vote with all board members present Monday night, the board accepted the recommendations provided by Diana S. Mulligan in her report.

Mulligan was appointed the fact-finder by the Pennsylvania Labor Relations Board and heard testimony from both the Phoenixville Area School District and the Phoenixville Area Education Association on Oct. 12.
