Board accepts bid for 14-passenger mini-bus at $118,522 as part of grant-funded purchases
Summary
The board approved inclusion of a recommendation to purchase a 2025 14-passenger mini-bus from Harlow's Bus Sales for $118,522 using HS Grant and General Fund monies; the item was approved as part of the consent agenda.
The Minneota Public School District board packet included a recommendation from Ray Trottier Jr. to accept a bid for a 2025 14-passenger mini-bus from Harlow's Bus Sales. The recommendation noted the vehicle was available for immediate delivery and met the requested rear A/C specification, while other bidders could not deliver until the end of the school year.
The recorded recommended purchase price is $118,522.00 and the packet said the purchase would use HS Grant and General Fund monies. The mini-bus purchase was included in the items approved under the consent agenda (motion by Allan Malaterre; seconded by Dr. Wanda Parisien), which carried 3–0 with two members absent.
The minutes do not record additional discussion about vendors, financing breakdown, or delivery schedule beyond the packet note that the vehicle was available on the lot at Harlow's Bus Sales.
