Venus ISD approves purchase of replacement international-model bus from Longhorn
Summary
Trustees approved purchase of an international-model bus from Longhorn Bus Sales using replacement-plan funds; board cited fleet compatibility and service relationships in voting to approve.
The Venus ISD board voted April 20 to purchase a replacement international-model bus from Longhorn Bus Sales using funds from the district’s replacement plan.
Staff told trustees the district solicited three quotes via by-board cooperative contracts and chose an international model for fleet commonality and parts/service access. The bus will include required seat belts.
The motion to approve the purchase was made by Amber Craftton and seconded by Greg Hoffman; the motion passed as recorded in the meeting minutes.
What’s next: staff will execute the purchase through the cooperative contract and add the bus to district inventory; the bus will be placed in service consistent with fleet rotation plans.
