Bolivar R‑I board approves consent agenda, insurance RFP and local compliance plan
Loading...
Summary
The Bolivar R‑I School District board approved its consent agenda (with two checks considered separately), authorized a request for proposals to narrow health‑insurance providers and adopted its local compliance plan during its December 2025 meeting.
The Bolivar R‑I School District Board of Education approved its consent agenda during the December meeting, addressing routine payments and taking three recorded substantive actions: separate approvals of two vendor checks, authorization to issue an RFP for employee health insurance, and adoption of the district’s local compliance plan.
Board members moved to approve the consent agenda with checks 25720 and 25573 pulled for separate votes. The board then approved check number 25720 to Bridal Supply and later approved check number 25573 to Barge’s Pizza; one board member (Jill) announced an abstention on the latter.
The board also voted to authorize staff to develop and issue a request for proposal to the remaining candidates in the district’s health‑insurance review. As operations staff explained, an RFQ had gone to nine firms and the field was narrowed to four; the RFP will seek detailed pricing proposals from those candidates.
In the meeting’s single formal action item, the board approved its local compliance plan after a motion, second and voice vote.
No dollar vote tallies or roll‑call results were recorded in the transcript; the minutes reflect voice votes and at least one abstention on the Barge’s Pizza check. The board indicated that capital‑projects recommendations and finance workshop dates will be presented in coming months.
