Summary
The Brookfield Board of Education voted 6-0 July 17 to hire Shipman & Goodwin for policy services at an initial cost of $4,000, following a recommendation from the Policy/Communications subcommittee.
The Brookfield Board of Education voted 6-0 Wednesday to hire law firm Shipman & Goodwin for policy services at an initial cost of $4,000, the board said. The motion, moved by Stephanie Sikora and seconded by Rosa Fernandes, followed a recommendation from the Policy/Communications subcommittee.
Board members discussed the recommendation in open session before the vote. The minutes record that the subcommittee recommended retaining the firm to provide policy services; the contract amount cited in the minutes was an initial cost of $4,000. No amendments to the motion were recorded and the vote was unanimous.
The approval was listed alongside other routine business and the board’s discussion of subcommittee assignments after a recent vacancy. The minutes do not record detailed contract terms, an end date, or the staff member who will manage the firm; those details were not specified in the minutes and would be subject to follow-up by the administration.
The board adjourned at 9:37 p.m. The contract approval and the subcommittee assignments recorded at the July 17 meeting will be reflected in board files and may generate future agenda items if further ratification or expenditure approvals are required.
