Board renews 10‑month cleaning contract with SKB at $112,521.49 per month
Summary
The Arlington Board approved a 10‑month renewal of the district’s cleaning services contract with SKB, effective July 1, 2025, at $112,521.49 per month, with non‑performance penalties allowed and authority for the superintendent to finalize terms.
The Arlington Board of Education approved a 10‑month renewal of the district’s cleaning services contract with SKB, running July 1, 2025, through April 2026, at a monthly rate of $112,521.49, less any nonperformance penalties.
Superintendent Allison Clark presented the recommendation and said district staff monitor contractor performance and planned to rely on monthly checklists and principal reports to document any service shortfalls. Trustees voted to give the superintendent authority to negotiate final contract terms.
Board members said SKB responded promptly when issues (for example, trash pickup and floor cleaning) were raised this school year and emphasized the need for continued monthly building checks to support any future performance actions. The renewal motion passed without opposition.
The approval authorizes the superintendent to negotiate final terms and to apply penalties if the vendor fails to meet contracted performance standards. The district will continue to track facilities checklists and principal feedback to support enforcement or remediation.
