RSU 26 board approves copier contract and club‑volleyball stipend; routine minutes and warrants pass unanimously
Summary
At its June meeting the RSU 26 board authorized a five‑year copier contract (not to exceed $270,000), created a stipend position for club volleyball (base stipend ~ $2,400), and approved routine minutes and warrants; all recorded motions passed 5–0.
The RSU 26 board cleared several business items during its June meeting, approving routine minutes and warrants and authorizing two administrative contracts and positions.
The board unanimously approved an agenda adjustment to add item 8(c), then approved the minutes of May 28, 2024, and payroll/regular warrant 24; those motions were recorded as "Passes 5 0."
On a separate motion the board authorized the superintendent to enter into a five‑year lease/purchase copier contract not to exceed $270,000 after staff said the recommended vendor returned the lowest bid among three and offered the responsiveness and service the district sought. The motion passed 5–0.
The board also authorized creation of a stipend position for club volleyball. Administrators said the stipend committee recommended a JV/club‑level stipend; documents discussed at the meeting set aside roughly $3,000 in stipend funds and placed a base stipend for the position at about $2,400, with some flexibility for experience. Board members noted enrollment growth (13 to 18 signups reported) and discussed returning to the board if additional staff are needed.
Other routine business — including approval of co‑curriculars for the coming year — was approved by unanimous votes. The board ended the public portion of the meeting by voting to enter executive session under 1 MRSA §405(6)(A) to discuss employee evaluations; the motion to enter executive session passed 5–0.
No contested or split votes were recorded in the public meeting minutes provided.
