Board approves yearly maintenance contract with Kilson for custodial machines

The Johnson County School Board approved a maintenance contract with Kilson for custodial equipment that will cover two service visits per year for 13 machines, district staff said.

A staff presenter described the contract as an annual service to maintain buffers and scrubbers and to repair expensive parts such as rubber scrubbers and bumpers before warranty expiration. "If we can get someone to come in and maintenance those before we have the breakdowns, the repairs, hopefully, will be less expensive," a district staff member said.

Board members moved and seconded the item and approved it by roll call (present members voting yes). The contract covers two visits per year to service all 13 machines; the meeting record indicates this is an annual maintenance arrangement the district renews each year.
