Summary
The board approved routine finance items including February financials and purchase orders (~$90,900.70), authorized a tax-valuation complaint on a commercial parcel, certified levy amounts to the county auditor, accepted superintendent personnel recommendations, approved emergency HVAC repairs at Magsick Middle School, and authorized a districtwide building automation systems contract with Vital Energy Systems; the meeting recessed to executive session under Ohio law.
The Centerville City Board of Education approved a slate of routine and urgent actions during the meeting, moving by motion and roll-call to adopt each item listed on the agenda.
Financial and compliance items: The board approved the February 2026 financial statements, monthly reports, and purchase orders certified by administration, with the treasurer reporting purchase orders totaling approximately $90,900.70. The board also approved minutes from its Feb. 23, 2026 regular meeting by motion and roll call.
Tax and levy actions: The board passed a resolution authorizing the filing of an original complaint against a tax valuation for a commercial parcel (Parcel number 067178210002) — described as an annual limited practice focused on commercial properties — and approved a resolution accepting amounts and rates as determined by the budget commission and certifying necessary tax levies for the 2026/2027 tax year to the county auditor. The chair emphasized this was an annual compliance action and not a request for a new levy.
Personnel and facilities: The superintendent's recommendations for resignations, employment and contract status changes across certificate and support staff and supplemental contracts were approved. The board also approved an "urgent necessity" declaration to replace controls, unit ventilators and rebuild VAV boxes at Magsick Middle School due to system failure, and separately approved a districtwide upgrade to building automation systems with Vital Energy Systems for school buildings.
Executive session: Pursuant to Ohio Revised Code sections read at the meeting, the board moved to adjourn to executive session to discuss employment/compensation of public employees and matters that must remain confidential under federal or state law, with a roll-call vote to enter executive session.
