Board approves routine personnel, policy and financial items; contracts and change orders cleared
Summary
The board approved staff matters, payroll and claims totaling $3,825,275.25, change orders, a Neihardt actuarial services agreement for OPEB, policy second readings and a $1,000 donation to athletics from Myron Agin.
At the regular meeting, the school board approved the consent agenda and several routine matters brought forward by staff.
Personnel items: The board approved classified and certified staff matters, including leaves of absence, new hires, resignations and transfers as presented in the meeting materials.
Financial items: Board members approved two payrolls (Aug. 22 and Sept. 5) totaling $2,231,115.06, claims of $1,594,160.19, and a combined total of $3,825,275.25 for the period presented.
Contracts and change orders: The board approved change orders presented for various construction projects. Mr. Dennis said the middle school contingency remains healthy even as the Old Central contingency is being consumed; the change orders presented were described as an aggregation of many small items rather than a single large unexpected cost. Project managers remain available to answer questions.
Actuarial services: The board approved a Neihardt Services agreement to perform the required biennial actuarial analysis for the district’s other post‑employment benefits tied to a $50 per day VEBA payout for retiring teachers. Mr. Dennis said the analysis is a compliance item required for the annual financial report.
Policy and attendance updates: The board conducted second readings and approved multiple policy updates covering medication use, environmental health and safety, emergency preparedness and drills, and a head lice policy. Attendance handbook updates for elementary, the middle school and high school were also approved.
Donation: The board accepted a $1,000 donation from Myron Agin to Lebanon High School athletics and thanked the donor.
Public comment: There were no public commenters signed up for this meeting’s public comment period.
