Board authorizes routine administrative and financial delegations for 2026
Summary
The Claymont City Board authorized standard administrative delegations including Treasurer signatory authority, investment of interim funds, Superintendent hiring authority (with subsequent ratification), designation of Purchasing Agent, records commission membership, employment of legal counsel Pepple & Waggoner, and E-Rate telecommunication signatory authority.
The board approved several routine but consequential administrative delegations during the organizational meeting. These included authorizing the Treasurer to pay bills within Permanent Appropriations, serve as signatory for payroll and warrant checks, request advances from the County Auditor, and invest interim funds; the minutes also note that interest among funds shall be distributed in accordance with R.C. 42.22.
The board authorized the Superintendent to employ teaching and non-teaching personnel as needed (with names to be presented for ratification at the next meeting), designated the Superintendent as Purchasing Agent, established a Records Commission composed of the Board President, Treasurer and Superintendent, retained the legal firm Pepple & Waggoner as legal counsel, and authorized the Treasurer to sign telecommunications agreements to comply with E-Rate rules.
