Board approves manifest, expense report and declines high‑school theater warrant article
Summary
The board approved routine financial items — a manifest for $2,078,945.31 and the expense/encumbrance report — and voted not to bring forward a warrant article to fund a high‑school theater renovation, citing taxpayer sensitivity.
The Contoocook Valley School District board on Dec. 17 approved routine financial items and made a separate decision to not pursue a warrant article to fund a high‑school auditorium/theater renovation.
An official certified the warrant (manifest) totaling $2,078,945.31 as proper charges against the district and the board voted to approve payment. Later, the business manager walked the board through the expense and encumbrance report ending Nov. 30, noting several encumbrances and open salary lines; the board approved the expense and encumbrance report by voice vote.
On capital projects, Budget & Property recommended against moving forward with an auditorium upgrade for the high school this year. The board voted that it would not bring a warrant article forward to fund the theater, saying they were sensitive to taxpayer concerns and will revisit other high‑school renovation options (noting a possible CTE high‑school project as a separate item).
The meeting closed the public portion of the agenda and moved into non‑public session under RSA 91‑A:3 to discuss personnel, student and contract matters.
