Unidentified Speaker 2 and other staff previewed procurement and grant items that will appear on the Feb. 23 regular board meeting agenda. Items discussed included a Colonial Intermediate Unit (CIU 20) fuel oil bid award for district fuel purchases (diesel for buses and gas for the white fleet), CoStar bulk salt participation for 26/27 amid low winter inventories, annual gym-floor refinishing with Miller Sports Construction, and an annual compliance approval of transportation vehicles and operators under district policy.

Unidentified Speaker 4 presented a one-year extension of the PowerSchool-owned Naviance agreement for secondary career exploration and college-admissions services. Unidentified Speaker 7 said the district will receive a noncompetitive PCCD school safety and mental health grant of $377,738, calculated from average daily membership, intended to fund safety assessments, equipment purchases and social-emotional/behavioral supports. A committee member asked whether the PCCD award is reimbursed or provided as a lump sum; staff said they would follow up with a clarification.

No formal votes were taken in committee on these items; they were listed for board consideration at the upcoming regular meeting.
