- Any contract or agreement for the purchase of goods or non-consulting services under $10,000 may be executed prior to board approval of the specific contract or agreement and execution may be delegated to the superintendent or department head. The contract shall be placed on the Board agenda for approval at the next regular or special meeting.
- Any reoccurring agreement or contract that has previously been approved by the board of trustees and contains no substantial modifications of the contract or agreement other than cost may be approved by the board prior to or after execution. The board authorizes the Superintendent or his designee to execute these agreements or contracts.
- Any reoccurring agreement or contract that contains substantial modifications shall be approved by the Board prior to execution and will be executed by the Board Chair and Clerk.
