Trifecta Ecosystems contract presentation and committee referral

Presentation

1:22 → 4:34(3m 12s)

Chair Gary Hogan called LM20260052, an order authorizing the Board of Education to enter an agreement with Trifecta Ecosystems. Dr. Paul Boyd (presenter) described a student-run mushroom-growing shipping-container project already built at a high school, said students have begun cultivation and that the district seeks retroactive authorization because state processes were missed; the committee recommended discharging the item to the full board rather than taking action tonight.
