The Iowa City Community School District Board of Directors took several formal actions on April 22. Key outcomes were unanimous approvals on the items below.

Certified budget and tax certification (Fiscal Year 2025–26)
The board approved the district’s proposed certified budget and tax certification for fiscal year 2025–26. District staff said the certified tax rate being proposed was 16.10076, a small reduction relative to the district’s published maximum rate. Staff explained the levy change reflected recent retirements and modest general‑fund growth under state funding rules. The motion carried with all directors voting in favor.

Student Chromebook RFP
The board approved the student Chromebook RFP as presented in the agenda packet. District staff said the procurement will be funded primarily from SAVE with a smaller portion from PPEL; staff cited an approximate Chromebook procurement figure of $5.86 million. The motion to approve the RFP carried with all directors voting in favor.

Staff‑assigned and student lab device RFP
The board approved the RFP for staff‑assigned and student lab devices. Staff said the purchase will update district lab machines and staff devices as recommended by the district technology committee. The motion carried unanimously.

Staff and student macOS device RFP
The board approved the RFP for staff and student Mac‑OS devices. Staff described it as part of targeted device allocations for specific instructional programs; the motion carried with all directors voting yes.

Routine business
The board approved the meeting agenda and the consent agenda earlier in the meeting; both motions carried with all directors voting in favor. Several public hearings on capital projects (Wood Elementary Preschool Project, Coralville Central exterior hard surface project, Center for Innovation exterior hard surface project) were opened and closed with no public testimony.

Votes were recorded in the meeting transcript as "the motion carries with all directors voting in favor." The meeting packet included the RFP materials and the certified budget details presented to the board before the vote.
