    5.2 Approve appropriation adjustments

    5.3 Staff Appreciation Stipend
    Dr. Bryan Perry, Superintendent

    5.4 Approve recommendation of negotiated bus bids as presented
    Mr. Tim Armstrong, Assistant Superintendent

    With the complexity of the marketplace, we are continuing to negotiate with some contractors.  This isn't a reflection of any impasse, just the reality of obtaining good information.

    Also, I would ask that the Board approve negotiations of bus contracts that allow reopening the contracts if and when new equipment becomes available.  If approved, I will ask Pam Partenheimer to insert language into contracts that allow the contract to be reopened with a contractor if both parties agree on a new equipment purchase.

    Routes 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,14,15,16,17,19,20,21,22,23. 

    13 had no bidders and we are still working with 18.


    5.5 Approve advertising of bus route 13
    Mr. Tim Armstrong, Assistant Superintendent

    No bids were received on bus route 13.


    5.6 Approve resolution to transfer $201,400.00 from Education to Operations for expenses incurred in November 2022
    Mr. Tim Armstrong, Assistant Superintendent

    This will put us at 13.5602% of the state Basic Grant transferred in 2022.  The State wants us to keep below 15%.

    Projected Basic Grant for 2022 = $15,064,706

    Transfers = $2,042,804.75 with this last transfer for 2022.
