Board approves $65,415 purchase of acoustic shells for ConVal High and Great Brook
Summary
After a public hearing, the Contoocook Valley School Board voted to spend $65,415 from the district athletic co‑curricular reserve fund to buy acoustic shells for ConVal High School and Great Brook School.
The Contoocook Valley School Board on May 20 approved spending $65,415 from the district's athletic co-curricular reserve fund to purchase acoustic shells for ConVal High School and Great Brook School.
During an earlier public-hearing segment, a district staff member explained that ConVal High School needs replacement shells (the existing units dated to the 1970s) and that Great Brook lacked shells. The staff presentation listed costs: approximately $47,365 for 20 shells at the high school (including shipping) and $18,050 for seven shells at Great Brook.
The board kept the public hearing open for 30 minutes, then returned and moved to approve the purchase as submitted. A voice vote was recorded in the meeting transcript; the motion passed with recorded “Aye” votes and no recorded oppositions or abstentions.
Board members and staff did not discuss alternative vendors or specifications in the public transcript, but a staff speaker earlier said the earlier public hearing for exterior doors was put on hold pending re-bidding and equipment review.
