Glynn County Schools staff asked the board to approve the purchase of three vehicles from Wade Ford for $151,410 using school-safety grant funds to replace aging fleet cars.
The presenter said the purchase would replace older vehicles in the district inventory, some more than 15 years old, and that the district plans to buy additional replacement vehicles in subsequent years as grant funding continues. Board members asked whether this purchase would complete fleet replacement; the response was that the district will replace a few vehicles each year while grant support continues.
No recorded board vote on the vehicle purchase appears in the transcript.
Ending: Staff will proceed with procurement steps pending formal board authorization and continued grant funding.
