Board approves textbook fund transfer and sale of seven buses; both votes 5-0

At the March 3 meeting the board approved two formal actions by roll-call vote.

Textbook fund transfer: Board moved and approved a transfer of $194,289 from the general fund into the district textbook fund, reflecting a local-match requirement; presenters said the textbook fund balance at the end of FY24 was $487,603.70. The motion to approve was moved by Mister Brodsky and seconded; the clerk polled the board and the motion passed 5-0.

Vehicle remarketing: The board approved a request to remarket seven school buses judged to be beyond their economic life. Mr. Hackman said replacement buses are available and that the remarketing would remove buses that are no longer economically feasible to maintain. The motion (moved by Miss Cooney) was approved by roll-call vote 5-0.

Both items were routine operational approvals on the agenda; no additional conditions or amendments were recorded in the meeting transcript.
