Board approves BOCES budget, casts supervisory votes and signs off on contracts and personnel
Summary
The Hamburg Central School District Board approved several action items including the BOCES administrative budget, casting votes for three supervisory candidates, adoption of the proposed 2025–26 budget to present to voters, publication of the property tax report card, approval of personnel changes (including a retirement), and a contract award for playground site work.
At its meeting, the Hamburg Central School District Board of Education approved a slate of routine and substantive action items.
Action C1: BOCES administrative budget — The board adopted the BOCES administrative budget for 2025–26 in the amount of $4,127,759. The motion was moved and seconded and carried by voice vote ('Aye').
Action C2: BOCES supervisory district votes — The board cast its votes for three candidates for the Erie County BOCES supervisory district: Cameron Hall, Mary Busey and Mark Mecha. The motion to cast votes for all three candidates was moved, seconded and approved.
Action C3: Proposed 2025–26 district budget (Proposition 1) — The board moved to adopt the proposed budget in the amount of $88,949,955 and present it to voters as Proposition 1 on May 20; the motion passed by voice vote.
Action C4: Property tax report card publication — The board authorized publication of the 2025–26 property tax report card as required by the Commissioner of Education; the motion passed by voice vote.
Action C5: Personnel changes and retirement recognition — The presented personnel changes were approved. The board recognized Anne Ollie, a food-service helper, and accepted her retirement effective July 1.
Action C6: Contract award for playground site work — The board approved a contract with Landscape Structures Incorporated for capital project site work (contract BP 300) with the base bid and total contract amount read during the motion; members asked whether the work will be completed before September and staff said meeting that schedule is the goal.
Most motions were proposed by the meeting chair and recorded as "So moved" with named seconds noted in the transcript (for example: "So moved by Cam; second by Laura"). The transcript records only voice tallies ('Aye') for approvals and does not list a roll-call vote with individual yes/no votes on these items; specific member-level tallies are therefore not specified in the record.
The board adjourned with no public expression recorded.
