At its Feb. 24 meeting the Splendora ISD Board of Trustees approved the purchase of furniture for two replacement elementary campuses — Peach Creek Elementary and Greenleaf Elementary — at a cost of $1,007,912.44 per school and authorized the superintendent to execute the related contracts.
The motion was made by Board President Allen Wells and seconded by Jennifer Stewart. The minutes record the vote as For: 4, Against: 1; the minutes do not name which trustee cast the single opposing vote. The agenda included a public comment on the item by Jeff Renkel of Learning Environments LLC, who addressed the board for 2 minutes and 21 seconds regarding the furniture purchase.
The minutes do not specify contract vendors, payment schedules, or funding sources for the purchase beyond the board’s authorization to execute the contracts. The board’s action indicates the purchases are capital expenditures for the replacement campuses and the superintendent was authorized to finalize contract execution.
