Subject 13.01 Approval of Modification to Hoboken Dual Language Charter School's Allocation of Hurricane
Sandy New Jersey Relief Fund Grant
Recommended Action WHEREAS on August 20, 2013, the Hoboken Board of Education accepted a grant from the Hurricane Sandy New
Jersey Relief Fund, Inc. (HSNJRF) to implement the Digital Divide project, which aims to address critical
technology needs including infrastructure, construction and training in school districts throughout the State that
were significantly impacted by Hurricane Sandy; and
WHEREAS the Hoboken Board of Education recognized that Hurricane Sandy created substantial damage for not only
the Hoboken Public Schools, but also our neighbors, the Hoboken Dual Language Charter School (HoLa) and did,
on December 10, 2013, pass a resolution to modify the HSNJRF grant by allocating $28,235.31 in grant funds to
address HoLas technology needs as set forth in a list dated December 4, 2013; and
WHEREAS the original items included in the grant modification, as requested By HoLa and approved by the Board of
Education and the HSNJRF, are no longer desired by HoLa, who has submitted a request for reimbursement for
technology items different from those included on the original list; and
WHEREAS, the Board has determined that the items currently requested by HoLa, as set forth on the list dated
September 9, 2014, are consistent with the purpose of the HSNJRF grant; and
WHEREAS the Board continues to acknowledge that the original HSNJRF grant modification and subject item
modification together are a one-time action and do not create a historical precedent, but instead reflect the Boards
desire to make an allowance due to the extraordinary nature of the disaster and to assist HoLa with its technology
needs.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED the Board of Education approves the requested modification to the items to be
reimbursed by way of the $28,235.31 grant funds previously allocated to HoLa and authorizes the Business
Administrator / Board Secretary to disburse such funds for the items set forth on the list dated September 9, 2014,
according to appropriate governing regulations.
