Board advances gatehouse renovation procurement; bid documents to be finalized

District Engineer Charlie Krebs updated the Board on Pelican Sound gatehouse renovations, reporting that the application was submitted to the Village of Estero and that Bowman issued required checks. Krebs told the Board that draft bid‑document language was sent to District Counsel and the District Manager; upon counsel approval, the District will prepare a public advertisement for sealed bids, provide bid packages to potential bidders, set a submission deadline and present submissions after a formal bid opening. The scope includes replacement of metal gates at the US‑41 main gate, paver replacement and optional aesthetic enhancements such as lattice or landscaping.
