September 9, 2026 Regular Board Meeting

The Berryessa Union School District held its regular board meeting on September 9, 2026, where several procurement and budget-related items were discussed. Key topics included updates on the Measure U construction bond projects, which cover school renovations, infrastructure improvements, technology upgrades, and safety enhancements, with specific projects such as a $4 million school kitchen assessment and a $375,000 reconfiguration of the Ruskin admin office. The board approved change orders for exterior painting contracts at multiple elementary schools, including a $10,000 credit back to the district from Satellite Painting Inc. and a change order for Silicon Valley Paving Inc. Financial reports were presented showing the 2025-26 unaudited actuals and fund balance, highlighting a positive ending balance of $3.5 million and a 3.5% unrestricted ending balance, exceeding the state-required 3%. The board also accepted initial proposals for negotiations with the California School Employees Association and adopted resolutions related to textbook sufficiency and non-discrimination policies. Motions to approve the consent calendar, change orders, and financial resolutions were passed unanimously. No new contracts or RFPs were announced, but the bond project updates and budget approvals indicate ongoing capital improvement and procurement activities within the district.
