RSU 10 board approves $2.27 million bond resolution to finance two school buses
Summary
The school board unanimously approved a resolution authorizing issuance of a $2,270,749 bond to purchase two school buses.
The Western Foothills Regional School Unit 10 school board unanimously adopted a resolution authorizing the issuance of a $2,270,749 bond to finance two school buses.
At the meeting, a board member moved that the resolution entitled “Resolution to authorize issuance of a $2,270,749 bond for two school buses” be adopted in the form presented; the motion was seconded by Peter and passed unanimously.
Board members said this is the standard annual step the district takes during budget planning to set the number and financing mechanism for vehicle replacement. The superintendent and business office staff were present for questions and were prepared to follow up with the state reimbursement process and procurement timeline.
No further specifics about the buses (vendor, model, or expected delivery) were provided in the meeting record; staff were available to answer additional questions, and the board did not attach any conditions to the adoption.
The motion carries as a formal authorization and moves the financing process forward; the board did not vote on a specific equipment contract at this meeting.
