Brenham ISD approves $1.2 million in final storm‑damage payments to Belfor Property Restoration
Summary
Trustees approved final payments totaling $1,205,521.16 to Belfor Property Restoration for Memorial Day weekend storm and hail damage; finance staff said TASB risk management funds have already been received to cover the invoices, though at least one trustee questioned detailed line items.
The board authorized final payments to Belfor Property Restoration totaling $1,205,521.16 to cover storm and hail damage repairs performed over the summer.
Finance staff (S3) said the district has already received reimbursement from the TASB risk management fund to cover these invoices and described a third‑party vendor review that TASB had performed. Trustee S13 raised questions about numerous line items — for example amounts for consumables and overtime — and asked whether TASB or a third party had cross‑checked billing. Finance staff confirmed TASB had reviewed the invoices and used a third‑party vendor review as part of that process. The board voted to approve the payment as presented.
The approval authorizes release of funds already on hand from the district's insurance reimbursement; the board recorded the motion and carried it without recorded roll‑call tallies in the public minutes.
