The Athens City Board of Education approved a $162,300 bid to PYE Barker of Chattanooga to install a wet sprinkler system at Westside School during its July 14, 2025, meeting. The approval was included on the consent agenda and carried by motion. The action was presented by Board Chairman Chris Adams as part of routine consent items. The minutes record that the board approved the consent agenda on a motion by Stan Harrison, seconded by Emily Forrest, and that the motion carried; an individual roll-call tally was not recorded in the minutes. The consent agenda also included approval of the Athens City Middle School (ACMS) 2025 tennis schedule and the June 10, 2024, meeting minutes. The board did not discuss contract terms, funding sources, or a project timeline in the public minutes; the minutes note that a copy of each document discussed is included in the minutes book. Because the approval was part of the consent agenda, no separate debate or amendment is recorded. The district’s minutes list the decision but do not specify contractor contact persons or warranty and completion dates.
