The Central Valley SD Board of Education voted April 16 to adopt Resolution 20-26-13, approving the Beaver County Career and Technology Center's 2026–27 general fund budget of $8,512,832, and to take several related finance and procurement actions.
"Number 1, to approve the adoption of resolution 20 26 dash 13, Beaver County Career and Technology Center's 20 26 20 27 general fund budget, $8,512,832," the finance presenter said. The board moved and unanimously carried the motion as stated on the record.
During discussion one board member noted the budget represented roughly a $400,000 increase; the member said he checked with the CTC and cited a paving project for the lower parking lot and what he described as a 17% increase in health‑care costs as drivers of that increase. "They have a paving project in lower parking lot, and they have a ... 17% increase on their health care costs," the member said.
The board also approved exoneration entries for several unpaid 2025 real estate tax accounts recorded in the minutes, including one entry described in the record as $492,449.79 in unpaid taxes plus a penalty of $24,622.47. A member noted these unpaid 2025 real estate taxes were filed with the Beaver County Tax Claim Bureau of Collection. The transcript lists additional exoneration entries and names; the minutes attach the detailed listings.
On procurement, the board approved an asbestos abatement contract with Doran Associates Inc., subject to final review and approval by the solicitor, and authorized administration to approve change orders up to $25,000 for the summer 2026 abatement project. The board also approved purchase of builder's risk coverage for the project in an amount "not to exceed $1,595.64," to be paid from the capital projects fund as stated in the record.
All motions on these finance items were moved, seconded and carried on the record. The board did not indicate further debate or dissent during the recorded motion and vote sequence.
