Board approves TSET grant application with 10% match, tables field upgrades and orders house appraisal
Summary
The board approved a Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust (TSET) grant application with a required 10% local match, declined an opioid grant partnership with Seiling Public Schools, tabled baseball/softball field upgrade bids, and authorized an appraisal on a town house.
The Taloga Board voted to allow Jenna Stump to proceed with a TSET grant application contingent on the district providing a 10% match. The vote was recorded Yes — King, Kilmer and Acre; No — Justin Fox. Motion to proceed was moved by Doug Kilmer and seconded by Stacy King.
Separately, the board voted not to partner with Seiling Public Schools on an opioid grant. During the meeting Danny Stump requested upgrades to the baseball and softball fields; the board voted to table that item until more detailed bids are provided. The board also discussed housing options and authorized administration to obtain an appraisal on the Benji and Lori White house in Taloga; that motion passed with a 2–1 recorded opposition from Justin Fox.
Board members discussed the need for more information before committing funds to field upgrades, and members asked administration to return with bids and specifications before taking action.
