Trustees approve facility‑program participation, parcel‑tax collection, maintenance contract and several donations
Summary
At its May 21 meeting the board approved participation in the state school facilities program, authorized parcel‑tax collection by Placer County, accepted several small donations and approved a district maintenance contract. All listed motions passed by voice vote.
The Tahoe‑Truckee Unified School District Board of Trustees on May 21 approved multiple routine but consequential business items: a resolution to participate in the state school facilities program, an authorization for Placer County to collect the district’s parcel tax, a competitively bid maintenance contract for pavement work, and several small grants and donations.
The board also approved related housekeeping resolutions tied to eligibility for facility funding and approved the consent agenda.
Votes at a glance - Resolution 32 (application for eligibility and funding under state school facilities program): approved by voice vote. Todd Rivera, chief business officer, described the program’s modernization and new construction tracks, matching‑share requirements and site eligibility rules. The board voted to participate and to authorize district representatives to sign applications. - Resolution 33 (master plan submittal requirement for Office of Public School Construction): approved by voice vote. Rivera said the board already adopted a five‑year master plan; this resolution acknowledges new submission requirements before applications are filed. - Resolution 34 (annual authorization for Placer County to collect the district parcel tax): approved by voice vote. Rivera said this is an annual administrative item. - Bid award and contractor agreement 25‑00‑08M (slurry sealing, crack filling and striping): awarded to Elements Mountain Company as the lowest responsive bidder at $274,185.60; approved by voice vote. Rivera said two bidders responded; the other bid was approximately $310,674. - Donations and grants: The board accepted several community donations and grants (Truckee Rotary Community Foundation $1,000 to Sechin Outdoor Education; Truckee Rotary Community Foundation $1,000 to Alder Creek Middle School’s Latinas Club; a $1,000 grant from Soroptimist International of Truckee Donner for Las Mariposas Club at Truckee Elementary). Motions to accept each donation passed by voice vote. - Consent agenda: approved by voice vote; items included routine personnel, field trips and other operational approvals.
How trustees voted Board members approved the listed items by voice vote; meeting audio recorded multiple “aye” responses and no recorded dissent. Trustees asked clarifying questions about matching‑share obligations for facility funding and the maintenance contract’s funding source (routine maintenance budget).
Next steps Rivera said staff will follow the facility program application rules and submit required documents to the Office of Public School Construction when sites and matching funds are ready. The pavement contract will be scheduled and executed under the district’s routine maintenance plan.
