Governor Wentworth board approves $5.7 million in warrants and $95,000 budget transfer
Summary
The Governor Wentworth Regional School Board unanimously approved $5,699,988.58 in accounts payable and payroll warrants and a $95,000 intra-district budget transfer to cover contracted transportation costs for KRHS.
The Governor Wentworth Regional School Board unanimously approved accounts payable of $2,508,132.27 and payroll of $3,191,856.31 — totaling $5,699,988.58 — during its Nov. 7 meeting at Ossipee Central School.
Board Chair Brodie Deshaies called the meeting to order, and Guy Pike moved the motion to approve the warrants, which James Pittman seconded. The roll-call vote recorded all nine members as voting yes.
Why it matters: The approved warrants cover the district's current obligations for pay and vendor invoices; board members asked no follow-up questions during the agenda item and the motion passed without amendment.
In a separate finance action, the board approved a $95,000 budget transfer from the Tuition Public HS line to the Contracted Transportation — In-State KRHS line to cover in-district transportation costs. James Pittman moved the transfer and Tom Bickford seconded; the motion carried unanimously.
Board members present at the vote included Tom Bickford, Dr. James Manning, Guy Pike, James Pittman, Mary Schillereff, Charlene Seibel, Dr. Elizabeth Sheckler, Dana Streeter and Chair Brodie Deshaies.
Budget context and next steps: The meeting record does not specify which vendors or payroll periods are included in the manifests beyond the totals; the board did not require additional documentation during the public meeting. The approved budget transfer was entered into the minutes as a board direction to the business office to reallocate the specified sums.
The board adjourned at 9:32 p.m.
