School board approves revised transportation IGA and renews employee medical/pharmacy insurance
Summary
The Bullhead City School Board approved a corrected transportation intergovernmental agreement and ratified a year‑two renewal of its employee medical/pharmacy insurance so open enrollment could proceed; staff said medical/pharmacy premiums rose about $40 per employee per month while dental and vision premiums did not increase.
At its May 6, 2026, special meeting, the Bullhead City School Board approved two routine but operationally important items: a revised intergovernmental transportation agreement and a year‑two renewal of the district’s three‑year employee medical and pharmacy insurance contract so that staff could proceed with open enrollment.
Staff told the board the transportation intergovernmental agreement previously approved by the board contained two missing 'grama' statements/agreements identified by district counsel; the revision corrects those discrepancies and was presented to the board with a note that the other party’s governing body had already approved the corrected version. A motion to approve the revised transportation intergovernmental agreement was moved and seconded and then approved by roll‑call vote.
On the insurance item, staff said they had signed to preserve open‑enrollment timelines and asked the board to ratify that action. The presenter said the district’s medical and pharmacy plan (described as the 'classic silver' option) will increase by about $40 per employee per month compared with the current year; dental and vision plans will not increase for next year. The renewal covers the second year of a three‑year contract and staff asked for board approval so employees could be enrolled on schedule. A motion to approve that contract renewal was moved, seconded and approved by roll call.
The transcript includes small inconsistencies in vendor and printed agenda spellings (the agenda and transcript show variations including "Asvade," "Asbate" and similar forms). Because the record varies, the board action is reported here as approval of the district’s employee medical/pharmacy insurance renewal (year 2 of a 3‑year agreement) and ratification of staff’s signing to allow open enrollment to proceed. The transcript does not contain contract dollar amounts or vendor contact details on the public record.
Next steps: staff will proceed with open enrollment and implement the corrected transportation agreement with the intergovernmental partner.
