Board lays groundwork for capital projects committee; proposes $5,000 seed for outreach
Summary
Superintendent and staff proposed a capital projects committee to develop a charge, timeline and materials over the summer; the board discussed membership and suggested including community business representatives and a rotating board seat.
Superintendent Dan and staff proposed forming a capital projects committee to develop a charge, materials and timeline this summer and to begin outreach to local businesses, the Londonderry School Board heard June 17.
Staff recommended using summer months for two to three initial meetings to draft a committee charge and prepare materials, and proposed setting aside $5,000 for initial outreach and visual materials to support fundraising and marketing. The superintendent said that amount would cover early outreach expenses such as basic marketing or short videos and that the board could revisit funding during the next budget cycle if more resources were needed.
Board members discussed committee composition and recommended including two to three business or community members alongside school representatives to bring local perspective and speak to potential sponsors. They also discussed rotating board representation so multiple board members could stay informed and participate as schedules permit. Staff said they would schedule an initial meeting in June or early July, and board members agreed to identify representatives and availability.
No formal vote to create the committee or allocate funds was recorded in the transcript; the board requested staff to convene an initial meeting and to propose participants and dates for that meeting.
