Chagrin Falls board approves consent agenda, signs off on contracts and FY26/FY27 appropriations
Summary
The board unanimously approved the consent agenda including personnel items, volunteer approvals, a contract with Kidslink Neurobehavioral Center and a Constic Sign and Graphics contract for a double-sided campus sign; the board also approved year-end transfers, advances and final appropriations for FY26 and permanent appropriations for FY27 to be submitted to the county for certification.
At its June 30 meeting the Chagrin Falls Exempted Village Board of Education approved a broad consent agenda that included certified and classified personnel items, substitutes, supplemental co-curricular and athletic contracts, volunteers and multiple vendor contracts.
The board voted to approve a contract with Kidslink Neurobehavioral Center, Inc. for consultation services for the upcoming school year and to approve a contract with Constic Sign and Graphics LTD for a double-sided sign at the grades 7—12 campus entrance; a board member noted the vendor—s drawings showed one side but the vendor confirmed the sign will be double-sided. The chair moved each contract as presented and members recorded affirmative votes.
The board also approved a correction to kindergarten fees, reducing the fee from $50 to $42 after staff identified a spreadsheet error. Staff explained a number of purchase orders contain multiple line items and described the "then and now" certification used for obligations incurred before a PO was in place.
On budgeting actions, staff presented interfund transfers and advances: transfers include moves into permanent improvement, food service and a severance payment fund established last year, and the district moved athletic activity accounting into a 300 fund to centralize athletics-related costs. Staff said advances from the general fund will temporarily cover negative balances in certain funds (local grants, employee benefits, federal grant funds) until reimbursements arrive; the district expects most federal reimbursements by September after final CCIP reporting to ODE. The board approved final appropriations for fiscal year 2026 and permanent appropriations for FY27; staff will send those measures to the county for the required "does not exceed" certificate.
Why it matters: The motions finalize year-end accounting steps, set the district's starting appropriation posture for FY27 and approve service contracts that affect student supports and campus facilities.
What's next: Staff will submit appropriation measures to the county and complete year-end reimbursements and transfers; the board's next regular meeting is July 22 at 7 p.m.
