Finance Committee approves vouchers and forwards IT, stadium and tennis contracts to the full board

The Germantown School District Finance Committee approved consent items and forwarded several vendor recommendations and capital projects to the full Board of Education at its meeting.

On routine business the committee approved the meeting agenda and the April 28, 2026 minutes. The committee then approved payment vouchers after staff answered queries about several line items including an Amazon Title IV purchase, multiple road‑salt allocations across site accounts, a Carl Perkins grant purchase for tech‑ed, a $7,628.40 homeless‑transportation invoice shared 50/50 with Menomonee Falls, and a $322.41 plenum‑rated Cat‑6 cable purchase.

Technology contracts: The committee voted to forward a recommendation to the full board to purchase Securely through CDW for a three‑year subscription with an annual cost not to exceed $23,783. The committee also voted to recommend a three‑year agreement with Forward Edge for Google Workspace for Education Plus in an amount not to exceed $64,519.20; staff said the product is the same and Forward Edge provided the preferred bid.

Facilities and capital projects: The committee approved a recommendation to proceed with visitor‑side speaker installation and associated electrical work for Dakka Stadium, awarding work to Sound Specialty and Nelco Electric with an amended not‑to‑exceed amount of $41,225 to allow for recent vendor price increases. The committee also recommended awarding the Germantown High School tennis complex resurfacing to Munson Incorporated for $125,365 from the 2025 capital improvements budget (Fund 41).

All motions reported on the agenda were carried by voice vote. The meeting adjourned at 6:57 p.m.
