Committee seeks maintenance vehicle, fleet program and grounds improvements
Summary
The committee discussed the need for a facility vehicle for maintenance staff, a vehicle program for fleet upkeep, a trailer for lawn equipment, shop reorganization, and grounds improvements including plants and fresh chips; staff said personal vehicles are currently being used and the current district vehicle is very old.
Committee discussion flagged several operational and grounds needs: a district facility or utility vehicle to serve maintenance staff, a trailer to transport lawn equipment, shop cleanup and inventory before new purchases, and plans to add plants and new chips to grounds at the high school and Idaho Hill Elementary.
The committee record notes the maintenance team currently uses personal vehicles because the district vehicle is "extremely old," and asked staff to consider surplus vehicles as a cost-saving option. Candy Turner described a vehicle program to manage fleet maintenance and said district branding (including a logo and "For Official Use Only" markings) would be added to any purchased vehicle. The minutes record plans to purchase a trailer to haul a lawnmower and to improve grounds with plants and chips.
