Board denies two late transportation requests, approves one that uses existing route
Summary
Following staff recommendations, the board denied two late transportation requests (Saint Mary's and Trinity Lutheran) because they missed deadlines and would add substantial monthly cost; the board approved a separate request for Friends Academy that required no new route cost, all by 4–0 votes.
The board reviewed three transportation schedule requests. Staff recommended denial of two late requests (identified in the packet as P118 and P119) because they did not meet required deadlines and would impose substantial additional costs on the district (staff noted approximately $4,000 per month per route). The board voted to deny those two requests 4–0.
The board then considered schedule P120, a request for transportation for one student to Friends Academy. Staff noted P120 uses an existing route and would not add district cost; the board approved P120 by unanimous vote.
The denials and approval were recorded as formal resolutions on the consent/meeting docket; board members emphasized adherence to deadlines and budget impacts when discussing the motions.
