Mr. Gebhard updated the board on the vehicles.  Van #7 is getting a second opinion on the transmission and he and Mr. Tharman are planning to go to Dallas next week to look at a couple of busses. The contractor that had put together a bid for a carport, has since pulled his bid due to health concerns.  Mr. Gebhard has continued to look for possible options, one being Viking Steel Structures. I recommend that the board raise the allotted money to $15,000 to build the shed for the school vehicles. This motion, made by Steven Whitney and seconded by Laquita Smith, Carried.

I recommend the board go into executive session to discuss nonelected personnel matters to protect the privacy interests of the individuals to be discussed, retaining Mr. Gebhard and Mr. Tharman and returning to open session in this room at 7:18 PM.
