Warren Hills board approves $1.41 million in bills, special-education contracts and emergency-squad agreement
Summary
The board approved a bill list of $1,414,527.26 for Aug. 7–27, 2024, an additional June transfer, special-education tuition contracts including a $105,000 placement at HMH Carrier Clinic East Mountain School, and an agreement with the Washington Emergency Squad for football game coverage at $100/hour.
The Warren Hills Regional Board of Education on Aug. 27 approved the district’s bill list totaling $1,414,527.26 for the period Aug. 7–27, 2024, authorized an additional June transfer of $44,109.63, approved several special-education tuition contracts for the 2024–25 school year, and approved an agreement with the Washington Emergency Squad to provide coverage at Friday and Saturday football games at $100 per hour.
Among the tuition contracts approved were an extended-year placement with HMH Carrier Clinic East Mountain School for $105,000 and regular-year placements with Hunterdon Central Regional High School for $39,000 and Hunterdon County Vocational School for $8,062, each with listed effective dates on the agenda. The board also accepted the revised June 2024 Board Secretary and Treasurer’s Report and certified compliance under N.J.A.C. 6A:23A-16.10.
The motions were presented as part of the Budget & Finance block; the board recorded a roll-call vote approving the motions. The Washington Emergency Squad agreement sets a per-hour rate of $100 for coverage at specified football games.
Why it matters: the bill list and tuition contracts reflect the district’s near-term cash obligations and placements for students requiring specialized services; the emergency-squad agreement establishes a health-and-safety vendor protocol for home football events.
The meeting minutes do not provide additional contract details such as total anticipated annual hours for the Emergency Squad beyond the per-hour rate, nor do they list detailed line-item expenditures within the approved bill list.
