The Appling County Board of Education held a meeting on August 18. During the meeting board members unanimously approved a recommendation to purchase four new school buses for the school system’s fleet. The recommendation included purchasing two bond buses that come from the State this past school year and this coming school year and then add two additional buses using eSPLOST III funds.

On the two bond buses the system would be responsible for paying $12,484.00 of the $89,704.00 total cost for each of the two buses. The board would then pay the total cost for the additional two buses with eSPLOST funds at $89,704.00 each. The total cost for the four new buses would be $204,376.00.
