The following items have been added to the Agenda:

II. E. SCCA SPED Curriculum Purchase - Vote

II. F. Pataula SRO Vehicle Purchase - Vote

Cheryl is requesting approval to change our February vote from a five year bus lease to a one-time purchase amount for two new buses. With the possible deletion of our facility grant funds from the state, it will become difficult to budget for a bus lease payment over the next five years. We will use our existing fund balance to purchase the two buses at a price of $279,900.

Two bids for Driveway repair, using crushed concrete, at Spring Creek were received. Cheryl and Will Bruner, Maintenance Coordinatior, are recommending the Committee approve the Bid of $31,250 from Circle B Contracting, Inc. This was the lowest of the two bids received. This item was tabled from the last meeting. 

The Committee reviewed the FY25 Initial General Operating Budget for Pataula. This was the first presentation of the Initial Budget, which shows a projected surplus of $109.338.

Cheryl is requesting approval to purchase Teach Town, a SPED Curriculum program, requested by Brandi Adams, SPED Director. This program would be purchased using SCCA IDEA funds. The purchase price is $39,220.76.

Cheryl is requesting approval to purchase a used 2020 Ford Explorer from Sunbelt Ford of Albany. The purchase price is $21,342 and the vehicle will be inspected by Transportation Director, Jeremy Pritchett, to ensure it fits our need before the purchase. The current vehicle used by the SRO, and provided by the Edison Police Department,  is constantly in disrepair.
