# LSR7 Finance Committee Meeting - 10/12/26

The Lee’s Summit R-7 School District Finance Committee met October 12, 2026, to review contracts and district finances. Procurement items included a student-specific addendum with Behavioral Health Alliance for private day-program services; 2026–27 graduation agreements with Cable Dahmer/Global Spectrum; and MOREnet internet, support, and technology services, which were reported to cost about $8,000 less than the prior year. The committee discussed authorizing up to $100,000 for Multivista construction documentation through a TIPS cooperative contract, and using the City of Lee’s Summit’s piggyback contracts with Tandem Paving and Quality Custom Construction for paving and concrete work, typically about $500,000 annually. Other facilities purchases included replacement of Lee’s Summit West’s dust collector, team shelters costing about $49,000, and a 16-month mobile-classroom lease for renovation projects. William Scotsman was identified as the lowest bidder, with the lease cost described as about $800,000 and within the project budget. The transcript does not record final votes on these contract items; discussion indicates items would proceed to the board for approval where required.

Financial discussion included a September transfer of $4,840,300.59 and proposed 2026–27 budget amendments: revenue increases totaling $13,261,120 and expenditure amendments totaling $33,177,427, primarily for bond-funded projects. The expenditure adjustments included $260,000 corresponding to a Jackson County grant for Rediscover mental-health services, a $10,000 district contribution toward a wrestling mat (with about $20,000 expected from the booster club), and additional bond budget authority. The committee also discussed monitoring nutrition-services finances and investing maturing funds. No recorded vote or procurement award decision is captured in the transcript.
