Riverview board approves energy and security contracts, change order and accepts audit
Summary
The board approved a 3‑year extension with Direct Energy Business NRG for power coordination, a $14,175.43 contract with NOBE for a security and training platform, an extended‑school‑year agreement with the Western Pennsylvania School for the Deaf, a capital change order of $3,486.02 for K&K Mechanical, and accepted the 2024–25 financial audit with no adverse findings.
The Riverview School District board voted, by voice, to approve several finance and capital items and to accept the district’s 2024–25 financial audit.
Contracts and extensions: the board approved (1) a three‑year extension with Direct Energy Business NRG for power supply coordination and pricing adders consistent with the district’s current agreement (the extension was noted as having Western Pennsylvania Electric Consortium Committee approval), and (2) a three‑year agreement with NOBE for a security and training platform for technology services, quoted at $14,175.43. The motions were made and seconded on the record and approved by voice vote.
Service agreement for special education: the board also approved an agreement with the Western Pennsylvania School for the Deaf for extended school year services (July 6–23, 2026) as presented.
Capital change order and audit: trustees approved a capital project change order to K&K Mechanical Services for $3,486.02. The board then accepted the district’s financial audit for 2024–25, prepared by Justin Bencsics of Hosack Specht Muetzel & Wood LLP, which the board reported had no adverse findings.
Personnel and programs: in the personnel section the board accepted several routine personnel actions, including the retirement of custodian Al Turfs (effective April 17, 2026), promotion of Robert Buck Lininger to full‑time head custodian effective April 18, 2026, contingent hires for the 2025–26 year through Precision HR Solutions (Evelyn Barnes, Michael Fajardo, Lawrence York) and approval of extended‑school‑year staff assignments for July 2026. The board also approved the Riverview cross‑country summer training camp (June 6–10, 2026) at Pine Springs Camp and Conference Center at no cost to the district; coaches/the Ostrowskis are handling logistics/fundraising.
Votes and procedure: motions were called, seconded and approved by voice vote in each case; individual roll‑call tallies were not recorded in the public transcript. For motions initiated under agenda item 5A, the motion text and mover/second were recorded on the floor (for example, one motion was moved by "Jacobs" and seconded by "Chaparro" in the meeting transcript), and the chair called for the voice vote.
What this means: the approved agreements and change order proceed subject to any final solicitor review where required; acceptance of the audit closes the 2024–25 audit cycle publicly with no adverse findings reported at this meeting.
