Perry BOE Meeting 9/14/26

The Perry Local Schools Board of Education held a meeting on September 14, 2026, focusing primarily on facility maintenance, capital improvement projects, and operational updates. Key procurement-related discussions included a detailed report on the district's capital projects, which exceeded $1.5 million during the summer of 2026, covering upgrades such as fire alarm system replacements, door replacements, and energy conservation measures including LED lighting projects. The board reviewed the capital improvement schedule extending through fiscal year 2030, highlighting planned replacements for turf, tennis courts, and roofing systems. Additionally, the district procured three pieces of site equipment, including John Deere plowing and salting equipment, with a noted procurement lead time of nearly 18 months. The board also approved financial reports for August 2026 and discussed rental rate adjustments for district facilities, including the Goodwin Theater, with considerations for for-profit and community-based organizations. Personnel matters, including retirements, resignations, and appointments funded by federal grants, were also addressed. No new contracts or RFPs were explicitly mentioned, but ongoing capital and operational expenditures were a significant focus of the meeting.
