Board of Directors Meeting October 14, 2026.

Erie Public Schools Board of Directors regular meeting, October 14, 2026. The board approved a resolution authorizing a $10 million 2026 general-obligation bond and reimbursement resolution to finance capital projects, following discussion of market conditions, borrowing costs, and the district’s capital plan. A motion to table the item failed. PFM advised that the financing could be priced in early November; district representatives said the borrowing was part of a longer-term plan and would not, by itself, require a tax increase. One director raised concerns about debt costs and urged stronger community and minority-business participation in district contracting. The board also approved a bid to MVP Printing and Promotional Products for science curriculum printing services; the transcript does not state the award amount.

The board approved an engagement with Zelenovsky Axelrod LLC to perform an audit for $49,500, and unanimously approved a tentative agreement with General Teamsters Local Union No. 397. It also approved a change setting substitute administrator pay at $312 per day. Separately, directors discussed a possible future $50,000 fund to match booster-group fundraising and requested further work on equitable allocation; no funding decision was made. Public comment raised questions about basketball-program support and proposed a student recreational swim program, but neither proposal received board approval during the meeting.
