The Board of Education decided to decline the offer for the solar panels to be affixed to the roof of the Woodbury Grammar School during last nights monthly meeting. The solar panels were to be put on top of the roof at the Woodbury Grammar School by a private investor who wanted to lease the roof of the school for 15 years at $1,000 a year, install the solar roof panels and after year 16 the system would be given to the school. Chris Blackburn made the motion to turn down the deal. Bruce Daniel seconded the motion. Daniel echoed that he didn’t turn down the project because of the solar energy, he just felt overall it wasn’t the right fit for the school system. Blackburn agreed. In other actions Thursday night. The board approved the extended contract update and the report cards. They approved moving forward with filing of liquidated damages against the Four Seasons Of Knoxville for work on the HVAC system. Four Seasons finished the project 8 days late and there was a $100 per day late charge in which the Central Office will go after. The next Board Meeting Workshop has tentatively been scheduled for November 6th at the Central Office. However that might change with the fact of the 6th also being election day. The next regular board meeting will be Thursday November 8th at 6 at the Woodbury Grammar School
