# MUSD Board of Education 10/27/26 Meeting

The Milpitas Unified School District Board of Education met on October 27, 2026. The board received a status update on its 14-site solar parking-structure portfolio with developer Plankton Energy; signed power purchase agreements are in place, and work is in interconnection design, with utility, DSA, and other approvals still ahead. The team is consolidating bids and reported a development timeline extending to late 2028. Board members asked about EV charging, battery storage, and accommodating future panel technology; the presentation indicated that battery storage is not part of the project. No new solar contract award or procurement vote was identified. The board also discussed its facilities master plan, which is needed to pursue state facilities funding such as Prop 2. Staff said an architecture or planning vendor could support the plan and community engagement, but no vendor selection or amount was presented; the prior plan identified about $750 million in projects.

Other spending- and procurement-related discussion included preparation of several state grant applications and an update on a job fair and workforce-development activities, without grant awards or purchasing decisions. The board removed consent item CI for separate discussion; it concerned professional development to help Milpitas High School staff implement a block schedule. The transcript does not capture the final vote or identify the provider or cost. The board adopted a Filipino American History Month resolution and approved board-member absences, neither of which involved procurement.
