Board votes to move ahead with an energy performance contractor

What happened

On July 15 the board voted, after a closed session, to move forward with 'performance services' and to set aside purchasing Policies 6320 and 6325 one time. Earlier meetings had Schneider Electric and others pitch building upgrades.

Why it matters to families

Performance contracts can pay for building and energy work over many years. They can lock the district into long-term costs, so the details matter.

The evidence

July 15 minutes record the motion for a one-time retraction of Policies 6320 (purchasing) and 6325 (federal grant procurement) and the motion to move forward with performance services. Cost and scope are not stated in the minutes.
