The Taconic Hills Central School District Board of Education approved a transportation contract extension that carries a 5.5% annual increase, setting the district's annual payment to $878,623. The motion was made during new business and approved by voice vote.
Chair presented the item as a contract extension for contractor bus services and asked the board for a motion to approve the increase. The board authorized the superintendent or designee to proceed with contract execution following the vote.
During the same portion of the agenda the board approved a capital project change order related to unforeseen conditions encountered at the track, increasing that project by $36,210.
