Board amends transportation budget to buy three Type E buses (one elementary, two high‑school)
Summary
Trustees approved a fund amendment to permit the purchase of one elementary and two high‑school Type E buses; staff said reserves in the transportation fund are low and purchases are outlined in the attached proclamation.
The board unanimously approved a budget amendment to the transportation fund to purchase Type E buses: one for the elementary district and two for the high‑school district.
Pat McHugh described the amendment as a typical end‑of‑year item that reflects the need to budget for bus purchases and noted the district’s transportation reserves were small (well below a 20% target). He said the attached proclamation specifies the purchases.
The elementary motion to approve the amendment was moved by Vice Chair Garris and seconded by Trustee Walsh; the high‑school motion was moved by Trustee Walker Andrews and seconded by Vice Chair Garris. Both motions passed unanimously.
Ending: Staff will finalize the purchases and report back to the board; transportation reserves and future replacement timing remain a district planning priority.
