Board approves Key Elementary abatement, flooring and paint contracts totaling $273,853
Summary
The Board of Education approved contracts for abatement, new luxury vinyl tile flooring and painting at Key Elementary; work is scheduled for June–August 2025 and the total project cost was capped at $273,853.
The Oak Park School District Board of Education approved contracts for abatement, new hallway flooring and painting at Key Elementary on April 14, authorizing a total project cost not to exceed $273,853.
The motion, read aloud by John Clark and moved by Trustee Clark, identified three lowest-responsible bidders: Key Construction for painting, YTI Office for flooring and Certified Abatement Services for hazardous‑materials abatement. The operations department wrote that work is scheduled June 16–Aug. 8, 2025. Trustee roll call indicated unanimous approval.
Why it matters: the package covers removal of existing hallway flooring, installation of luxury vinyl tile and repainting of hallways and classrooms, plus abatement where hazardous material is present. District operations told the board it solicited bids in March and received responses by the March 18 deadline.
Costs and scope details read into the record: Key Construction (painting) — $124,250 plus contingency; YTI Office (flooring) — $76,980 plus 10% contingency (listed as $84,678 in the motion); Certified Abatement Services — $52,500 including contingencies. The motion totals a not‑to‑exceed amount of $273,853 and sets the contractor schedule for summer 2025.
The board called the vote after brief questions from trustees about warranty terms and funding sources; staff said warranty details could be provided and did not identify a separate funding source in public comment on the motion. The motion passed on a roll call vote.
Ending: Work is scheduled for the district’s summer construction window (June 16–Aug. 8, 2025). Staff will provide warranty documentation and any funding‑source detail requested by trustees.
