Board approves treasurer recommendations, textbooks and pavement bids including work by Cincinnati Asphalt Incorporated
Summary
The Lakota Local Board approved treasurer recommendations (certifying levy amounts), superintendent recommendations including new science textbooks, and base bid and selected alternates for district‑wide pavement rehabilitation from Cincinnati Asphalt Incorporated; e‑Rate and OHSAA membership items were also approved.
The Lakota Local Board approved several consent and business items at its March 23 meeting, including treasurer recommendations that accept amounts and rates set by the budget commission and certify the necessary tax levies to the county auditor.
Board members moved and carried a collective motion to approve superintendent recommendations covering personnel items, job descriptions, adoption of new science textbooks, and contracts. Dr. Whiteley said the HR team completed a comprehensive review consolidating job descriptions districtwide so each employee will have a current, signed copy on file.
The board approved the base bid and selected alternates (numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 12 and 14) from Cincinnati Asphalt Incorporated for district‑wide pavement rehabilitation projects. Dr. Whiteley described selected alternates as targeted repairs (for example, seal coats for some older parking areas) intended to buy time while the district continues master facilities planning.
Administrators also noted approval of multi‑year E‑Rate contracts to secure technology savings and routine approval to maintain Ohio High School Athletic Association membership for 2026–27 so students may participate in athletics. Members voted by roll call; the items were carried and recorded as approved.
No additional details about contract values or timelines were provided during the meeting; the board said facilities and master planning discussions will continue in the facilities committee and at future meetings.
