Board approves purchase of two buses and use of capital reserve for copier
Summary
The district authorized purchasing two buses not to exceed $275,000 and approved using $24,000 from its capital‑reserve equipment fund to buy a new Usherwood 8100 copier; both measures passed unanimously.
At its April 2 meeting the board approved Proposition II to purchase two buses — a 65‑passenger diesel and a 30‑passenger wheelchair‑accessible bus — for a combined cost not to exceed $275,000, to be funded by a tax levy spread over installments as the board directs.
The board also approved Proposition III to appropriate $24,000 from the Capital Reserve - Equipment Fund to acquire an Usherwood 8100 copier. Both propositions passed unanimously. The motions were presented as part of the district's annual budget and propositions package.
Board members said the bus purchases address transportation needs and the copier purchase will be funded from the designated capital reserve rather than current operating funds.
