Board approves timeline to bid wrestling roof replacement after independent assessments

The board approved a timeline to solicit bids for replacement of the flat portion of the wrestling facility roof after district and independent inspectors recommended installing a new roof over the existing surface. Administrators told the board that because the project cost exceeds $100,000 the district must publicly bid the work. District staff said they posted the bid request immediately to allow contractors time to review the site. The timeline presented to the board calls for bids to be opened on the 18th and for staff to present bids to the board on the 22nd so the district can proceed with contracting and repairs. A board member moved and another seconded the timeline; the motion passed on a voice vote after brief discussion about advertisement and contractor access for inspections. Administrators said they expect contractors to mobilize quickly after award and did not provide a specific completion date in the meeting. No specific bidder, contract award or construction schedule was approved at the meeting; the action was limited to approving the bidding timeline so the district can receive competitive proposals.
