# 07-12-23- Regular Finance & Operations Committee Meeting

The Bristol Public Schools Finance & Operations Committee held its regular meeting on July 12, 2023. Staff reported 324 open purchase orders as of July 10, primarily in special education and maintenance, with invoices, payroll postings, grant adjustments, and PO closures still being processed for the fiscal-year close. Because receivables and expenditures were continuing to change, staff expected a clearer financial picture in August and September; no contract awards or bid approvals were reported.

The cafeteria report noted that a new serving line at an elementary school was funded through a national lunch grant, and the district planned to apply for another grant to support cafeteria improvements. The committee also reviewed a $20,000 transfer from a surplus in athletic officials to athletic transportation to cover additional buses for student activities. Student activity accounts were discussed, including a reported $669,822 balance to carry into FY2024. No formal procurement vote was identified in the transcript.
