The transportation decision could change the company operating Weymouth’s school buses, and speakers raised concerns about driver continuity, vehicle age, safety, and the risk of higher costs if a new contractor cannot perform. The school budget request is higher than the Mayor’s proposed operating amount, leaving the committee to address a reported funding gap before the budget reaches Town Council on May 12. The committee also discussed a potential $52,000 Title I shortfall and plans to use the food service revolving account for certain direct costs.
