Woodstock CUSD 200 approves 2025–26 paper bid and authorizes solar project change order at Woodstock North
Summary
The board awarded the district paper bid to Midland Paper for $81,538.80 and authorized a change order to the Altop Industries contract to add an additional 53-kilowatt-hour solar system at Woodstock North, not to exceed $1,100,000; both motions passed by roll call.
The Woodstock CUSD 200 board of education voted to award the 2025–26 district paper bid to Midland Paper for a total price of $81,538.80 and separately authorized a change order to the Altop Industries contract to add an additional 53 kilowatt-hour system at Woodstock North High School at a cost not to exceed $1,100,000.
The board approved the Midland Paper contract after a staff presentation and a motion to award the bid. The motion was moved and seconded and carried on a roll-call vote in which multiple board members recorded “yes.”
The board later took up an amendment to the district’s existing solar contract for Woodstock North. The motion authorized the superintendent or his designee to execute a change order to the Altop Industries contract to increase the system by an additional 53 kilowatt-hour capacity and capped the change order at $1,100,000. As part of the motion the board made findings that the change was not reasonably foreseeable when the original contract was signed, that the change order is germane to the original contract, and that approval is in the best interest of District 200. The motion passed on a roll-call vote.
