III.B.6. Continuing Ricoh Copier Contract
Rationale

The Board is being asked to continue the service agreement for the current Ricoh copier contract until June 2025. The copiers are now paid off and we would like to continue using them for the remainder of the school year and only pay the agreed upon servicing fees. In June the Board will be asked to approve a new copier contract. This will allow the changing of machines to happen during summer break instead of during the school year to minimize work and school disruptions.
