Rationale: On July 19, 2017, the Board of Trustees approved Board Report ITEM 18.9 for the initial (preliminary) approval of the Preliminary Smart Schools Investment Plan (SSIP) for the modernization of facilities for pre-K programs and classroom trailers at School 30.

In accordance with the guidelines of the SSBA, the plan was then posted on the District’s website on or about August 1, 2017 for the requisite 30 days of public exposure. It is then to be presented by the Board of Trustees at a Public Hearing for any public comments. The Board then is at liberty to issue a final approval of the preliminary plan.

This resolution is being presented to garner the Final Board of Education approval of the Preliminary Smart Schools Investment Plan (SSIP) for School 30 post public comment period and public hearing.

Once approved by the Board of Trustees, the District will finalize and submit its SSIP application for School 30 for approval by New York State. The District will work with the COY Finance Department to determine the applicable funding line(s) in support of the project which will include purchase plan and will submit the required documentation for reimbursement of the expenditures.
