# Board Meeting 9-22-26

The Fayette County Board of Education met on September 22, 2026. The board approved a camera-system purchase/license exceeding $50,000 for cloud storage and access to footage from more than 1,000 cameras. The provider was referred to as “BATA” in the transcript. In response to questions about cost and access if the district leaves the contract, staff said footage would remain stored on the cameras and that they would investigate lower-cost alternatives. The board also approved the fiscal-year 2026 financial statements and accounts payable; a roughly $31,000 Progress Learning subscription was discussed among the bills. The statements reported $101 million in total revenue, including $78 million in the general fund, and a $14.8 million general-fund balance, of which about $900,000 was unassigned.

The superintendent reported that a proposal had been submitted to the School Building Authority for an Oak Hill cafeteria and kitchen project. Its projected cost is about $12.9 million, with approximately $3 million in local funds and a request of roughly $10 million from the authority; this was a funding proposal, not a contract award. The board also discussed an application for a sixth year of basic-needs funding from the Greater Fall Valley Foundation, but no grant amount was stated. No vendor selection or construction contract approval was identified.
