The Boyertown Area School District board took a series of formal actions at the Jan. 13 meeting.

Contracts and procurement
- LanTech Group LLC (turf fields): The board approved the LanTech contract. Roll‑call votes recorded Miss Connor, Miss Kratz, Mr. Bridal, Mr. Roger Uptegrove, Dr. Weir, Dr. Wiley and Mr. Petrella as yes; Miss Nyman and Mr. Brophy voted no. The motion carried.

- BES HVAC and roof prime contracts: The board approved multiple prime contracts for the Bordertown Elementary School HVAC and roof replacement, including JBM Mechanical, EA Roofing Company LLC and Phillips Brothers Electrical Contractors. One trustee announced an abstention on these items (recorded as an abstention/non‑conflict). Administration said CHA will provide on‑site owner‑representative oversight; trustees pressed for clarity on whether the district should contract an independent project manager.

Budget/tax action
- Act 1 resolution: The board adopted the Act 1 resolution limiting the 2026–27 tax increase to the Act 1 index of 4.2% (roll call recorded unanimous yes votes). Administration said staff will proceed with the budget process and present a proposed budget consistent with that index.

Personnel and minutes
- The board approved minutes and the personnel agenda. Administration publicly acknowledged multiple upcoming retirements representing more than 250 combined years of service.

Next steps
- Several action items and contracts will progress to execution and administration said it will return with project oversight details and any requested supplemental information at subsequent meetings.
