Board approves Trace Creek as construction manager and selects architect for boundary work; roll‑call votes unanimous

At its meeting the Board of Education approved two action items by roll‑call vote: awarding construction management for the new stadium, tennis courts and paving to a single respondent, and approving an architect for boundary work (named in materials as Russ Gronk). Both items passed unanimously with recorded yes votes from all five board districts.

For the construction‑management item the board packet noted one letter of interest from Trace Creek. The board conducted a roll‑call vote with the following recorded votes: District 1, Amber Franceschi — yes; District 2, Amy Hart — yes; District 3, Billy Montgomery — yes; District 4, Cliff Pruitt — yes; District 5, Randy Phillips — yes. The chair announced the item approved.

For the architect selection the board accepted a motion to approve the named architect (materials referenced “Russ Gronk” in the motion). The roll‑call votes were recorded as: District 1, Amber Franceschi — yes; District 2, Amy Hart — yes; District 3, Billy Montgomery — yes; District 4, Cliff Pruitt — yes; District 5, Randy Phillips — yes. The chair announced approval.

The record did not include a detailed motion text, dollar amounts, contract terms or seconding member names for the construction‑manager item; the transcript included a second for the architect motion (Miss Hart seconded). Board staff said materials related to both procurements were included in the board packet.
