• Vector Solutions agreement — Contract with Vector Solutions approved as presented.

• Public School Facility Improvement Grant application — Board authorized the district to apply for a state facility grant (statewide program amount mentioned in the presentation) to address projects including high‑school HVAC; administrators noted a roughly 25% local match requirement.

• Assessment appeals — Board resolved not to intervene in seven tax assessment appeals pending before the Clinton County Court of Common Pleas and authorized the solicitor to execute stipulated settlements.

• Policies and governance documents — Policies 1–11 on second reading and a board operating guideline for filling vacancies (BOG 004-BOG-1) were adopted.

• Bald Eagle Township Sewer Authority fee — Board approved an annual maintenance fee of $2,000 beginning Jan. 1, 2026, after facilities staff explained alternatives would be far more expensive.

Several of these items were taken with little debate; those with more discussion included the facility grant (funding match and project scope) and the sewer fee (maintenance rationale). The meeting closed with procedural items, committee reports and an announcement of an executive session on personnel.
