Board passes updated procurement policy; implementation delayed while internal procedures are aligned
Summary
The board approved a revised procurement policy after a six‑month process. Director Yord said the policy will not take effect immediately while internal policies and procedures are updated to ensure compliance.
Director Yord reported that the board has passed an updated procurement policy developed over six months and thanked Controller Heisler and Chief Joseph for their work on the item. "I just wanna note that with this meeting, the board has now passed our updated procurement policy that we've been working on for the last, 6 months," Director Yord said.
Yord cautioned the policy will not go into effect immediately: district operations teams "need some time to bring their internal policies and procedures up to speed so that we can be in compliance with it." The board said staff will implement internal changes in the coming months before the procurement rules take effect.
No formal effective date was given in the meeting record; Director Yord indicated implementation steps are underway and the matter will be visible in future board communications.
