Summary

The board approved increasing the district micro‑purchase threshold to $25,000, a change to procurement policy intended to streamline small purchases; the motion carried 6–0.

Carrizo Springs CISD trustees voted to increase the district micro‑purchase threshold from $10,000 to $25,000 to align with procurement practices for small-dollar purchases.

The minutes record: "Motion made by Wilbur Cruz, second by Al Doria to approve change to the district's micro-purchase threshold from $10,000.00 to $25,000.00. Motion carried 6-0." The minutes do not record additional qualifying language or administrative safeguards; staff will be expected to implement the higher threshold in accordance with state procurement rules.

Trustees discussed the motion as part of routine business. The change reduces the number of small purchases that require competitive bidding or board-level approvals for dollar amounts below the new threshold, subject to state law.
