School board approves $37.475 million contract with Oyster Pointe for two pre‑K centers
Summary
The school board voted to award IFB 20250422 for construction of two pre‑K centers to Oyster Pointe Construction Company with a fee amount of $37,475,000; administration said the award was lower than recent estimates and construction will begin in earnest.
The Williamsburg-James City County School Board voted to award the Invitation for Bid (IFB) 20250422 for construction of two pre‑K centers to Oyster Pointe Construction Company for a contract amount of $37,475,000.
Board member Mister Riffle moved to approve the award; Missus Henley seconded. Board members recorded aye votes during the meeting and the motion passed. Superintendent Dr. Keever and staff expressed enthusiasm for the project and said the bid amount came in below recent estimates as they finalized architectural designs.
Administration noted the project will enter active construction and that staff expect a non‑seamless process typical of large construction efforts; they asked for the board’s continued oversight as the project advances.
Decision status: motion passed and contract awarded; administration to manage construction and return with updates as required by the CIP process and contract terms.
