Massapequa board approves transportation contract amendment; district to file zero-emission bus extension with SED
At its regular meeting following a recognition ceremony, the Massapequa Union Free School District Board of Education approved a transportation contract amendment and authorized the board president to execute the required agreement with the New York State Education Department (SED).

A board member asked to pull resolution No. 6 from the consent agenda for clarification. Mr. Rock (speaker 15), the district representative explaining the item, said the amendment relates to the fourth year of a five-year agreement with the district’s transportation provider and that the annual contract-amendment form is required by SED. "Number 6 is, related to our transportation contract," he said. He added the amendment reflects the original RFP terms and that "there's no change in terms of the dollar amount."

Mr. Rock also addressed the state’s zero-emission busing timeline: "The 0 emission busing extension is due, March 31," he said, and he noted the district would file that request if seeking an extension. He explained 2027 is the first date when bus companies would be required to begin purchasing the electric vehicles being discussed.

After the explanation the board approved the consent agenda (items 1–5 and 7–11) with item 6 removed, then moved and approved resolution 6 to authorize the SED agreement. Voice votes were recorded as "Aye" with no opposition noted.
