Board approves $41,532 purchase of new rain jackets for both marching bands
Summary
The board voted unanimously to buy new rain jackets for Farmington High and North Farmington High marching bands from Francis Enterprises at a total cost of $41,531.75, including shipping and handling.
The Farmington Public School District Board of Education voted May 6 to purchase new rain jackets for the marching bands at Farmington High School and North Farmington High School.
Board member Miss Heinrich moved the purchase; Miss Smith supported the motion. The jackets will be purchased from Francis Enterprises at a total cost of $41,531.75, which includes shipping and handling.
During public comment, Kelly Burgoyce, president of the North Farmington Music Boosters, urged the board to approve the jackets, describing the current jackets as worn and inadequate for rain and cold. Trustees said the jackets are needed to keep students warm and in uniform at parades and football games.
Roll call voting was recorded in favor of the purchase; the motion carried.
