[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Charter schools have to submit all procurement documents for contracts over 25k. These are listed in the PCSB minutes each month. The schools also submit the actual contracts for any deal over 100k (until recently the threshold was 25k). Also, all audited financials for every school are posted on PCSB site. Those audits have a list of any vendor paid more than 25k in a single year. [/quote] Right, but you can no longer FOIA the actual contract because you can FOIA the PCSB but not individual schools. So there's no way to dig into whether transactions are really arms-length or whether it's a bunch of cozy relationships and back-scratching insiders shoveling public funds out to private consultants that don't provide value.[/quote]
