Board ratifies inter-district transportation payments and vows tighter contract oversight
Summary
Board ratified payments to a regional transportation agency and directed staff to formalize contracts after a staff member said the district had operated transport services without consistent board-approved contracts for years.
Board members ratified payments related to inter-district transportation and discussed the need to formalize contracting practices. A staff member said the district has provided transportation services for neighboring districts for about 22 years but does not currently have a consistent board-approved contract in place; they urged that future services proceed only after a formal contract is approved.
The board expressed support for fixing the process to ensure proper documentation and compliance. "Sin que la mesa directiva lo apruebe no me parece apropiado continuar con este proceso," a staff member said, and staff committed to establish the appropriate procurement and contract-review steps going forward. The board ratified the payments and asked staff to return with a contract for formal approval.
