All other contracts that are not`professional services"or"District Projects"such as maintenance services, equipment,
chemicals, and supplies, do not require Board approval regardless of dollar amount. The Board approves the annual
budget which includes the expenses that come from these contracts, so these contracts are not included in this report
as they have historically been within staff authority.
