From the meeting
The board scheduled a 3-year lease purchase agreement with Santander Bank for two 2027 IC CE 78 passenger school buses. The decision was on the consent agenda, so the vote was pending on October 21, 2026, rather than completed in the agenda itself. This is a real bus replacement signal tied to fleet financing and delivery timing.
A transportation or fleet vendor would watch for related equipment, service, and maintenance needs once the buses are acquired.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
When will Buckeye Valley Local Schools issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Buckeye Valley Local Schools's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
