Pequot Lakes board adopts 10-year facilities plan, approves SRO agreement and accepts $7,042.66 in donations
Summary
At its July meeting the Pequot Lakes Public Schools board adopted a 10-year facilities maintenance plan by roll call, approved a school resource officer (SRO) agreement for 2026–27 and accepted donations totaling $7,042.66 for student activities and athletics.
The Pequot Lakes Public Schools Board of Education approved a set of routine and policy actions at its July meeting, including adopting a 10‑year facilities maintenance plan, approving an SRO agreement for the 2026–27 school year and accepting $7,042.66 in donations to district and student-activity funds.
The board voted to adopt the district's 10‑year facilities maintenance plan, which Superintendent Kurt Stumpf and Finance Director Heidi Hagen characterized as the most detailed long-term plan the district has prepared. Hagen said the assessment specifies annual items — for example, air handler units and doors — and projected costs across the next decade. The resolution was approved by roll call, 4–0.
The board also approved a school resource officer agreement covering Sept. 8, 2026, through May 27, 2027. Stumpf said the contract incorporates language recommended by the state and reflected a roughly 10% increase in officer salary billing; he said the city averages officer salaries when calculating days billed and that the 10% increase still falls short of full cost. The board approved the agreement on a voice vote; Stumpf said a new SRO will be introduced at a future meeting.
The meeting read and accepted donations and grants totaling $7,042.66. The gifts included multiple activity-specific contributions: $709.16 from Pequot Lakes Dairy Queen for the speech team; $2,380 from the Patriot Activities Club for state sweatshirts for robotics and several sports programs; and smaller gifts for debate, Spanish club, dance and speech. The board approved the resolution accepting donations by roll call.
Other routine motions that passed included approval of the consent agenda and the paybook summary for the period ending July 5, 2026.
