Board approves time-management system and a one‑year biannual roofing maintenance contract; powerhouse repairs to be budgeted
Summary
The board authorized a time-management software contract and a one-year biannual roofing maintenance agreement; a proposed $16,166 repair for the powerhouse roof was discussed and will be included in the FY25 budget for formal approval next month.
The Wall School District Board approved a set of operational contracts and discussed needed roof repairs.
Administration (speaker 2) described a new time-management system to replace manual time cards. The first-year implementation cost is $4,212 with an annual fee of about $1,212 thereafter; the system integrates with payroll software and offers mobile clock-in and GPS options for offsite work. The board approved the contract by voice vote.
Separately, the board considered a Black Hills Roofing maintenance agreement for biannual roof inspections and preventative repairs on the main school building. Discussion covered expected benefits (regular inspections, patching leaks) versus the limits of preventative maintenance in extending the roof’s overall lifespan. Members agreed the district should avoid long-term lock-in; a motion to approve a 1‑year, biannual inspection/maintenance agreement (with the option to discontinue annually) passed by voice vote.
The meeting also reviewed a $16,166 proposal from RCS to repair the powerhouse roof (removing unused units, sealing fasteners, addressing low spots and drainage). Administrators said the project is recommended for insurance and to avoid worsening damage; given timing and budget processes, the board reached consensus to include the repair in the final FY25 budget and to approve it at the next board meeting rather than voting on it tonight.
The board directed the building committee and administration to coordinate timing to ensure the work occurs within appropriate temperature windows for roofing materials.
