Unfinished Business

Gen Pro Lighting

Everything is in order for the lighting project, we are just waiting now for things to get started.

 

Bus #2/Bus Grant – Update

Bus #2 will be getting the transmission replaced out of one of our old salvage busses.  We will only have to pay the labor for switching them out.

 

Superintendent Muckey informed the board that we were selected as a recipient of a bus grant for $20,000.  We can use the bid price of $80,000 that we got in February of 2016 since it is within a year to purchase a new Thomas 59 seated to 53 passenger route bus.  Due to a couple of the regular route buses getting to be 20+ years old it was determined to it would be a good time to get another bus.  The 1992 bus will need to be destroyed as part of the grant requirements.  Motion by Tolsma seconded by B. Bamberg to accept the grant and get a new bus ordered.  Motion carried.
