Board notes planned vehicle auction and routine fleet maintenance; bus camera purchase tabled
Summary
The superintendent told trustees Purple Wave will photograph three district vehicles (Bus #10, maintenance pickup, Van #4) for auction; the board also discussed bus maintenance, a pending air‑conditioning repair on Van #7, and tabled a bus camera procurement due to cost.
Superintendent Ken Tharman informed the board that Purple Wave would photograph three district vehicles—Bus #10, the maintenance pickup and Van #4—for an upcoming auction, and administrators noted that Van #7 is undergoing an air‑conditioner repair. The fleet was described as otherwise functioning well.
Separately, trustees discussed a possible bus camera system. Administration presented capabilities aligned with district needs, but trustees noted the expense and asked Mr. Tharman to seek alternative, lower‑cost options. No procurement action on the camera system was taken at the May 12 meeting.
The board’s consent items also included routine transportation considerations and future disposition of vehicles not in regular use; the auction and maintenance updates were recorded in the Old Business section of the minutes.
