Board approves 2024‑25 budget amendment for insurance recovery and moves forward on capital project phase 4 bids

The Kenmore‑Tonawanda Board of Education approved several consent agenda items on Feb. 13, 2025, including a resolution to amend the 2024‑25 budget to record insurance proceeds related to a loss at Kenmore West and bid awards and a contract for phase 4 of the district capital project.

Assistant Superintendent Morozko presented the budget amendment item and said the amendment reflected insurance recoveries connected to a capital project loss at Kenmore West. "This amendment is for money received as a result of insurance proceeds from a loss at Kenmore West due to the capital project," she said. The board approved the resolution by voice vote; the meeting record states the motion "carried unanimously." No dollar amount was provided in the board discussion during the meeting record.

Morozko also presented bid awards for phase 4 of the district capital project and a contract for UNS to provide the remaining cameras as part of phase 4. Those items were listed on the consensus agenda and were approved as part of the consent package. The board approved the entire consensus agenda by voice vote; the meeting record again notes unanimous approval.

The board additionally approved tenure for Shauna Murphy during the same meeting and later adjourned to executive session. The meeting minutes record the motions and unanimous votes but do not list individual roll‑call tallies in the transcript excerpt.

The motions recorded in the meeting transcript were moved and seconded on the floor and adopted by unanimous voice vote; the transcript records the vote outcome as "motion carried unanimously." The board did not attach additional conditions to the approvals in the board room discussion.
