The School District of Palm Beach County held an ISSOC meeting on May 8, 2026, focusing primarily on updates and financial oversight related to the 2016 and 2026 sales tax-funded capital improvement projects. Key procurement discussions included the status of open purchase orders totaling nearly $95 million for the 2016 tax, cost escalation impacts on facility renewal and construction projects, and proposed funding adjustments to avoid borrowing by utilizing sales tax reserves. The committee reviewed project budget increases for specific schools to address compliance and facility needs, and discussed the integration of charter schools into the 2026 sales tax expenditure plans, including oversight of their spending and audit requirements. Additionally, the meeting covered the Roosevelt modernization project funding strategy and the coordination with the community foundation for tenant improvements. The committee approved the proposed plan modifications and agreed to continue monitoring expenditures and project progress. Administrative actions included the election of officers and a motion to request a term limit waiver for a committee chair, to be finalized at the next meeting in August.
