Flatonia ISD board raises purchasing threshold to $100,000 before competitive procurement
Summary
Trustees approved increasing the district purchasing threshold for competitive procurement from $50,000 to $100,000 to speed purchases; the board retained final approval authority and adopted the change 6-0 Aug. 29, 2025.
Mr. Rodney Stryk proposed amending the district purchasing policy to raise the competitive-procurement threshold for goods and services from $50,000 to $100,000, saying the change would provide greater flexibility and expedite purchases. Pastor Tim Rowell asked who would be authorized to make purchases if the threshold increased; Mr. Stryk clarified that "the Board will still have to approve these purchases but the district would not have to go through the bid process."
Jessica Morrill moved to approve the amendment to the purchasing policy to increase the threshold; Christina Manzano seconded the motion, which passed 6-0. The transcript does not record specific examples of purchases that would be affected or a timeline for implementing the policy change.
