Holcomb board accepts donations, authorizes vehicle purchase and approves hires in routine business
Summary
At its meeting the Holcomb School Board accepted three donations for baseball batting‑cage improvements, authorized the superintendent to buy one vehicle (not to exceed $40,000), approved disposal of surplus items, and approved several personnel hires including supplementals and a Holcomb Elementary para.
The Holcomb School Board moved through routine business and approved several motions by voice vote.
Donations: The board accepted three donations to expand the baseball batting-cage area: concrete (about $27,300), oil-casing pipe for supports ($55,000) and netting ($9,848). Dr. Myers recommended accepting all three donations together; a trustee moved, the motion was seconded and the board accepted the gifts.
Vehicle authority: The board granted the superintendent and transportation director authority to purchase a single vehicle (a Suburban intended to increase student transport capacity and to serve driver’s-education duties) for up to $40,000 between purchasing cycles.
Surplus disposition and hires: Trustees approved disposal of a short list of surplus items (routine semiannual process) and, after an executive session, approved hiring supplementals as presented and the hire of Deb McVay as a Holcomb Elementary para. Most votes were taken by voice with trustees responding "Aye." No roll-call tallies were recorded in the public transcript.
The meeting adjourned after the hires were confirmed.
