Board approves MTSS liaison description and repurposes CNR balances to address athletic-field erosion
Summary
The board approved a new MTSS liaison job description (stipend position), voted to close two CNR accounts with remaining balances (Broadbrook chimney and gym ceiling) and authorized creation of a new CNR of about $59,678.20 to repair erosion at East Windsor High School; motions passed by voice vote.
The East Windsor School District Board approved several operational items: a revised MTSS liaison job description, the closeout of two small capital-improvement (CNR) accounts, and the creation of a new CNR to address erosion affecting playing fields at East Windsor High School.
On personnel, the board approved a new MTSS liaison job description intended to replace the prior “service team facilitator” duties. The position is not a new full-time line; rather it is a stipend role consistent with Group 8 provisions of the teacher contract (the stipend percentage referenced in the packet). The motion to approve the job description was made, seconded and passed by voice vote.
On capital accounting, staff reported remaining balances of approximately $49,453.20 in the Broadbrook chimney project and approximately $10,225 in the Broadbrook gym ceiling project. The board approved a motion to close those two CNR accounts and then to use the combined roughly $59,678.20 to create a new CNR to fund an urgent repair addressing erosion and runoff along the woodline behind East Windsor High School.
Staff noted an on-state-bid quote from Roller Coat Construction in the neighborhood of $57,300 for the repair; they discussed SIP timing, a 10% contingency typically included for SIP projects, wetlands/permitting checks and whether additional funds might be required if the work were delayed. Kyle will check inland-wetlands permitting requirements before work begins. The district indicated the town finance contact (Amy) can create the new line once the board votes, allowing the work to proceed as soon as procurement and permitting are complete.
All motions were approved by voice vote; the transcript records no roll-call tallies. The board directed staff to document the closeouts and new CNR creation and to notify town finance and relevant committees as a professional courtesy.
Next steps: staff will confirm wetlands/permitting, finalize contract details with the state-bid contractor if procurement rules permit, and circulate a memo documenting the closeouts and new CNR to town finance.
