The South Lyon Community Schools Board held a meeting on May 5, 2026, where several procurement-related items were discussed and approved. Key actions included the approval of a cooperative agreement with Novi Community School District for virtual programs for the 2026-27 school year, reflecting a $5 per student per semester increase. The board also approved the 2026-27 proposed budget supporting the Oakland Intermediate School District and authorized summer tax collection fees estimated at $89,377. Additionally, contracts for survey services related to the 2025 bond program were awarded to Chemtech and Associates ($150,400) and Spalding Decker ($125,750). The board reviewed a recommendation to purchase student technology devices through the REMC cooperative bid program to replace unavailable Chromebooks, noting significant cost savings and a lead time of two to four weeks. Furthermore, a geotechnical services contract was recommended to Testing Engineers and Consultants for $18,675 to support multiple district construction projects. These procurement decisions support ongoing capital improvement and educational technology initiatives within the district. Other agenda items included board elections, committee reports, and recognition of staff and student achievements, with no additional procurement actions taken.
