Board approves auditors, Apple lease, surplus sales, gas easement and camera placements

At the end of its meeting the Clover School District board approved a series of administrative items and third‑party requests without objection.

Auditor selection: The board approved Green Finney Cawley LLP as the audit firm for the 2024–25 audit cycle. The superintendent’s staff said the firm will begin audit work in the spring.

Surplus property: The board approved a technology‑department surplus list and authorized procurement processes to sell or dispose of listed items under district procurement rules; staff said the list included MacBook and other technology devices slated for disposal as the district transitions device types.

Apple lease: The board approved renewal of an Apple equipment lease for a three‑year cycle totaling $2,540,463 with annual payments of $846,821 (three-year total cited by staff). The district noted the lease approval requires a minute entry for Apple’s documentation.

Easement and camera approvals: The board approved York County Natural Gas Authority’s request for a temporary and permanent easement at the ninth‑grade campus YMCA for gas‑line construction and approved York County Sheriff’s Office/Clover Police requests to place license‑plate (flock) cameras directed toward Oak Ridge Road entrances. Facilities staff said the easement request had been narrowed from an initial 20–25 foot request to roughly 10–15 feet.

Votes and motions recorded in the meeting transcript show these items were approved by general consent or “without objection.” The meeting did not record roll‑call tallies for these items in the transcript provided; staff indicated routine procurement and audit procedures will follow.
