Summary

As part of a bundled consent motion, the Mahwah Township Board approved awarding a $380,000 bid for a rooftop HVAC unit for Joyce Kilmer School; the district expects 40% reimbursement through the ROB Grant program and intends to install the unit in summer 2025.

The Mahwah Township Board of Education approved the award of a rooftop HVAC unit bid for Joyce Kilmer School during its Jan. 22 meeting under the consent agenda. The business administrator reported the low bid at $380,000 and stated the district expects the State to reimburse 40% of the cost through the ROB Grant program.

The award was part of the consent bundle (item 18[a]–[w] excluding 18[t]) approved in a single motion moved by Mr. Gallo and seconded by Mr. Copeland. The business administrator said the roofing/HVAC work and related projects are scheduled for summer months and that the Joyce Kilmer parking project is also planned as a summer project and is hoped to be complete before the next school year begins.

The board directed staff to proceed with necessary administrative steps to secure state reimbursement and to coordinate installation timing. The business office and facilities staff will prepare grant documentation and a summer installation schedule.

The action does not indicate any amendments to the procurement award. The meeting transcript records the procurement amount and reimbursement percentage; the formal contract documents (award letter, vendor name, and contract number) were listed in the meeting agenda but are not fully enumerated in the transcript excerpt.
