Board renews bond project manager contract for two-year term to complete Lowry projects
Summary
Trustees approved a two‑year renewal for the district’s bond projects manager to oversee remaining phases of the Lowry High School projects and the track installation; the contract continues at the same compensation and is charged to bond proceeds.
The Humboldt County School District board on May 3 approved a two‑year renewal of the bond projects manager contract, effective July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2027, with no change to compensation.
Administrators said the renewal is intended to provide continuity as the district moves into phase 2 and phase 3 of Lowry High School projects. The contract was presented as an eligible bond expense; administration reported the annual compensation remains $97,009.20 (monthly $8,001.60). The bond projects manager will also oversee the Lowry track project that had an awarded price of $452,531 and a projected start in June.
Administrators told the board the manager’s oversight reduces risk and has caught issues in prior projects that likely saved money and prevented incomplete work. The recommendation to extend the contract was framed as a continuity and risk‑management step to ensure phase completion and to transition responsibilities later to district leadership.
A board member moved to renew the bond projects manager contract for two years; the motion was seconded and carried on a voice vote.
