Clean Impact cleaning proposal debated but no motion taken
Summary
Board revisited a $17,000 Clean Impact cleaning quote for district buildings but did not move the proposal; some members objected to repeated reintroductions and others suggested hiring local workers instead of paying the contractor's price.
Board members reopened discussion of a previously considered Clean Impact cleaning contract quoted at $17,000 for Ashland High School and the district office. The item had previously resulted in a 3–3 split; some members advocated tabling the item until all board members could attend, while others said repeatedly bringing it back set an unwelcome precedent.
One board member suggested an alternative: recruit local workers and pay small stipends rather than contracting out for the full quoted amount — "I'd just soon try to find 3 people in the area and give them $5,000 each to come clean," the member said — and the meeting record shows no motion to approve the Clean Impact quote was made at this session.
