Shawnee board approves RFP and lease purchase for Jim Thorpe Stadium elevator
Summary
The board approved issuing an RFP and accepted a lease-purchase bid to fund an elevator installation at Jim Thorpe Stadium; both actions passed unanimously 6–0 with one member absent.
The Board of Education voted to move forward with procurement for an elevator at Jim Thorpe Stadium by approving an RFP and accepting a lease-purchase bid to finance installation. The RFP approval motion was made by Mandy Hillhouse and seconded by Jeanne Swinney; the acceptance of the lease-purchase bid was moved by Casey White and seconded by Russ Oliver. Both motions carried 6–0 with Ms. Kristen Wilson recorded as absent.
Minutes show the board treated the stadium elevator as a two-step procurement: first authorizing the RFP process, then accepting a financing bid via lease purchase. The written record lists member votes individually for both actions (Turner Bass, Clif Harden, Mandy Hillhouse, Russ Oliver, Casey White, Jeanne Swinney all recorded Yes). The minutes do not include the lease amount or vendor name in the provided segments; the board recorded formal approval to proceed with procurement and financing.
