Board designates banks, meeting schedule and authorizes routine financial actions
Summary
The board named Community Bank, N.A. and NYCLASS as official depositories, set the 2025–26 meeting calendar, named The Daily Star as official newspaper, and authorized payroll certification, signatures and limited transfers up to $1,000.
At the July 1 reorganization meeting the Laurens Central School Board designated Community Bank, N.A. and NYCLASS as official depositories and authorized the use of other banks when bidding conditions warrant. The board also designated The Daily Star (Oneonta, NY) as the district’s official newspaper and set regular monthly board meeting dates for 2025–26, beginning July 16, 2025.
The board approved financial authorizations that include certifying payrolls and conference attendance via the Superintendent, designating authorized signatories on payroll and other checks (Amy Schlee, Lynda Rathbun and William Dorritie in specified combinations), and authorizing the Superintendent to transfer up to $1,000 within the General Fund budget. The board also authorized designated staff to effect wire transfers from the district’s accounts. Motions for these designations and authorizations carried 5-0-0 where recorded.
These actions establish operational authority for day-to-day fiscal operations and ensure the district has set signatories and depositories for the coming fiscal year.
