Committee recommends purchase of four 77‑passenger buses for up to $646,464
Summary
The Finance Committee recommended the Board approve purchase of four new 77‑passenger school buses from Midwest Transit at a total cost not to exceed $646,464; the recommendation was forwarded to the Board for approval.
The Finance Committee recorded a recommendation that the Board approve the purchase of four new seventy‑seven passenger school bus units from Midwest Transit at a cost not to exceed $646,464. The minutes list the vendor, unit size, quantity and the not‑to‑exceed amount as part of Action item G.
The committee minutes indicate the recommendation "has been reviewed by the Board Finance committee and is recommended for Board approval." The minutes do not specify whether the purchase replaces specific units, the funding source, or expected delivery/installation timelines; those details typically appear in the Board packet for contract approval.
A public commenter had already raised the bus purchase as a topic during public comment earlier in the meeting; the minutes do not record the commenter's position or name.
