Board approves budget amendment after $6,000 high‑school dishwasher bill
Summary
Administrators told the board a high‑school dishwasher required emergency repair and presented a $6,000 invoice; the board approved an intra‑budget amendment to cover the cost to avoid an audit finding.
Board members approved a budget amendment to cover an unanticipated repair bill for kitchen equipment at the high school.
Administrators said a dishwasher failed at the end of the school year and the repair vendor submitted an invoice for $6,000. The food-service director reported the amount exceeded the line-item balance, and administrators requested a small transfer to cover the cost so the district would not face an audit finding at the end of the fiscal period.
Rachel moved to approve the budget amendment; the motion was seconded and the board approved the transfer. Board members asked whether replacement equipment installation had begun and were told that new cafeteria equipment deliveries and installations were planned for summer at each school.
The amendment addressed an immediate repair invoice; the board did not approve any larger capital purchases at the meeting.
