Payment For Goods And Services   

Previous Next

The Board of Trustees desires to have invoices paid on time in order that the district may take advantage of available discounts and avoid finance charges. The district shall not be responsible for unauthorized purchases.

The Superintendent or designee may authorize payment only for those goods and services that have been approved or ratified by the Board of Trustees.

The Board authorizes the Superintendent or designee to pay in advance for certain materials if a decrease in cost is possible or if the material is unavailable to the District without advance payment.

The Superintendent or designee may pay invoices in excess of previously approved purchase order amounts without further Board approval when the excess amount represents sales tax, transportation charges, or charges made for the detention of a shipment during loading or unloading.
