The Cabell County Board of Education at tonight’s meeting approved a change order to supply Huntington East Middle School equipment, materials and labor to replace gas regulators on cooking equipment.
The change order is estimated to cost the Contingency fund $2,155.23. This motion was requested as a result of Huntington East Middle School’s gas regulators requiring a higher pressure than most regulators at other county schools which costs more money to replace. Board member Skip Parsons had questions about the motion and said he wondered why this school had uncommon gas regulators in the first place. The board concluded with the approval of the change order on the grounds that the replacement would provide additional safety features.
Members of the board appointed board member Skip Parsons along with Vicky Pickavance and Kim Parsons to serve as the Audit Committee. This committee will acquire and oversee actions associated with audit findings and concerns.
Members of the board approved the requests of four professional personnel members to take a leave of absence. Board member Mary Freeman had questions about a graduation coach’s request and said her leave of absence would be too long, especially with graduation approaching. Members decided to approve the coach’s request considering her responsibilities would be covered.
Cabell County Board of Education Treasurer, Conrad G. Lucas, presented the January 2014 financial report for approval. The report included the county’s revenue, expenditures and liabilities. Members of the board approved the report with January’s ending balance at $66,894,479.71.
Members of the board discussed a property issue during an executive session.
