The Livermore school board on Tuesday is poised to consider approving the employment contract for its next superintendent.
Anthony Limoges, the candidate up for hire, would begin with an annual salary of $329,000.
Starting at the first step on the superintendent salary schedule, Limoges’ base salary would increase to $345,450, effective Jan. 1, 2027, pending a positive six-month review.
His three-year term is proposed to run July 1 to June 30, 2029, but the length of his contract can be extended.
Limoges is poised to replace acting superintendent Michelle Pechette, who rose to the helm in February in the wake of Torie Gibson’s departure mid-year.
Limoges was named the sole finalist for the post last week.
The board selected Limoges in partnership with the Alameda County Office of Education as well as other stakeholders, according to the agenda.
The longtime education leader most recently served as the associate superintendent of human resources for eight years at the Rocklin Unified School District.
The Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District board meeting is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. on Tuesday (June 16). The agenda is available here.
In other business:
*The board will consider authorizing the issuance and sale of up to $90,000,000 in bonds to refinance outstanding district bonds.
“The resolution authorizes the refunding bonds to be issued as current interest bonds through a negotiated sale,” the agenda states.
*The board is set to adopt the district’s 2026-27 budget.
The district projects it will meet the state-mandated 3% minimum reserves requirement through the 2028-29 school year.
A district budget for the 2026-27 school year must be approved prior to July 1, according to the agenda.
*The board will consider approving the restoration of select positions as well as one-time expenses such as board governance training; furlough days for Livermore Management Association directors, principals and assistant superintendents; adoption of secondary social science curriculum and stipends for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports.
The restoration package costs about $2,705,000.
“The District has identified available funding sources to support these restorations while maintaining fiscal solvency and compliance with state reserve requirements,” the agenda states.
*The board is poised to discuss the potential sale of two district-owned office buildings at Montevina Business Park to raise capital funding for campus needs, according to the agenda.
A portion of the business park formerly served as the site of Livermore Valley Charter School. The institution shuttered nearly a decade ago after operator Tri-Valley Learning Corporation filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy.
