Board approves easement, surveillance camera placement, auditor, surplus property and Apple lease renewals
Summary
The Clover School District board approved a series of routine items without objection, including a utility easement, placement of law enforcement cameras near two Oak Ridge schools, selection of the audit firm, surplus technology disposal and renewal of an Apple lease.
The Clover School District board approved multiple consent or routine items without objection during the meeting.
Approvals recorded:
- York County Natural Gas Authority easement at the CSD YMCA: The district approved a temporary 15-foot construction easement and a permanent easement (approximately seven feet) across property near the ninth-grade campus to allow gas-line installation under a nearby bridge and along Highway 274. The applicant initially requested a larger easement and district staff negotiated the width to limit impacts.
- Placement of license-plate-reading (flock) cameras for law enforcement: The board approved allowing York County Sheriff’s Office and Clover Police Department to place fleet/flight-style cameras on district property at Oak Ridge Elementary and Oak Ridge Middle (positioned to face the public roadway, not the campus interior) and potential placement at other district buildings as needed for traffic or investigative uses.
- Audit firm selection: The board approved Green Finney Cawley LLP as auditors for the 2024–25 fiscal year audit.
- Surplus technology property: The board approved the tech department’s surplus property list and authorized disposition according to procurement rules; the list includes MacBook Air units and other equipment slated for disposal as the district transitions to an iPad fleet for students.
- Apple lease renewal: The board approved a three-year Apple lease for $2,540,463 with annual payments of $846,821 for the next lease cycle (three-year term). Minutes will reflect the motion as required for Apple documentation.
Each approval was advanced “without objection” and no recorded roll-call votes or oppositions were noted in the meeting transcript.
Provenance: The approvals were made in separate sections of the meeting packet during finance and facilities reports; district staff indicated they will continue to work with law enforcement on camera siting and with York County Natural Gas Authority on the final easement placement.
