Rondout Valley board presents capital‑project results and approves amendment with Ulster County
Summary
At its Dec. 10 meeting the board presented results of a $21,454,459 capital‑project ballot (525–203 in favor) and approved an amendment agreement with Ulster County effective Jan. 1, 2025; the meeting also amended the agenda to move public comment earlier.
RONDOUT VALLEY, N.Y. — The Rondout Valley Central School District board presented the results of a Dec. 3 capital‑project ballot and approved an intergovernmental amendment with Ulster County at its Dec. 10 meeting.
The superintendent presented the recommended motion to accept the capital‑project vote, reporting the ballot passed 525–203 for a $21,454,459 project. The superintendent told the board that a major focus of the capital project was security infrastructure (entry control, intrusion alarms, clock/PA/lockdown upgrades and window/door security film) and thanked community members who voted.
Separately under agenda item 3 the board moved to approve an amendment agreement between the Rondout Valley Central School District and Ulster County, effective Jan. 1, 2025. The motion was put and the board voted 'Aye'; the chair declared the motion carried.
Earlier in the meeting the board amended the meeting agenda to move public comment to an earlier time slot; that procedural amendment was seconded and carried by voice vote.
What remains unspecified in the public portion of the transcript: the articleed excerpt did not contain a recorded final board vote on the superintendent’s security recommendation (adding SROs and contracting two Atlas guards); the capital‑project ballot results were presented as a recommendation to accept the public vote.
