Summary

The board approved declaring more than 100 older Chromebooks surplus and accepted a single $750 bid for a 2013 Suburban after discussing appraisals and statutory sale procedures.

The business manager (S4) asked the board to declare a list of older devices surplus, including over 100 elementary Chromebooks and middle-school devices that are no longer in regular use. Discussion covered options — recycle, part out, or sell to parents with a waiver of support — and S2 moved to surplus the listed Chromebooks and related items; the board approved the motion by voice vote.

On vehicle surplus, S4 said the district advertised a 2013 Suburban and received a single bid of $750. Board members discussed prior informal valuations (figures of $5,000 and an appraisal near $16,050 were cited in the discussion) and state rules for reappraisal and private sale if bids are inadequate. The board moved and voted to accept the $750 bid. S4 noted the vehicle's mileage is around 100,000 and emphasized liability and safety considerations for continued district use.
