Board approves consent agenda and routine resolutions covering contracts, trips and purchases
Summary
The Board of Education approved the consent agenda and a package of resolutions authorizing contracts, piggyback purchases, benefits statements and several out-of-state school trips; vote tallies were not recorded in the transcript.
At the Mamaroneck Union Free School District board meeting, Chair (S1) presented the consent agenda and a series of resolutions authorizing contracts and routine purchases. A motion to approve the consent agenda was made and seconded; the board proceeded to consider individual resolutions.
Resolutions and actions presented included authorization to use Westchester County contracts for vehicle purchases (Nielsen Fleet) and copier services (Xerox); an award of contract for the universal prekindergarten program to Healthy Kids Extended Day Program for 2025-26; piggyback purchases for bleachers from Nickerson Corporation and flooring supply and installation from Millburn Flooring for 2024-25; approval of compensation and benefit statements for certain unaffiliated employees for 2024-25; and authorization for out-of-state trips for the high school jazz band and swing choir to the National Jazz Festival in Philadelphia and for Murray Avenue School trips identified in attachments (Bruce Museum, Stamford Nature Center).
Motions on the listed resolutions were made and seconded during the meeting and Chair (S1) called for "All in favor." The transcript records the motions, seconds and the question "All in favor?" but does not report roll-call vote tallies for each resolution. The board also noted that all seven members were present during the meeting.
Where required by the resolutions, the board authorized the superintendent or the assistant superintendent for business operations to execute agreements and documents to effectuate the contracts and trips described. Several items referenced standard procurement authority under General Municipal Law Section 103 for piggyback purchases.
The board moved on to a strategic framework and budget presentation after handling the routine business; specific dollar amounts for the contracts and the budget requests were not listed in the meeting record.
