Sheldon ISD trustees approve renovation work, district‑wide roof contract and several budget items

Sheldon ISD trustees voted to approve multiple contracts and budget items at the board meeting, including a Phase 2 renovation contract for the ad complex, a district‑wide roof repair and replacement contract and a budget amendment.

The board approved a recommendation to award construction services to complete Phase 2 scope work of the ad complex renovation project for an amount not to exceed $305,000. The motion carried after a motion by Mr. Reed and a second by Ms. Martinez; the board voted in favor and the item passed (motion text and mover/second taken from the meeting record). The agenda copy noted the award package would be submitted to legal partners.

Trustees also approved a contract with Boulder Sheet Metal (listed in the meeting record as a cooperative purchase) to provide construction services for district‑wide roof repair and replacement work in the amount of $2,226,716. The district described the award as the best value; the motion was made by Mr. Rivas and seconded by Ms. Martinez and the item passed.

The board approved a budget amendment in the amount of $125,025. The motion was made by Ms. Barrios and seconded by Ms. Martinez; trustees voted to approve the amendment as presented.

Other approved items recorded in the meeting minutes included approval of weather‑related activities for all campuses (motion and second recorded; specific dates not clearly specified in the transcript) and approval of contract recommendations for non‑certified staff for the 2025–26 school year. The motion on contract recommendations was made by Mr. Rivas and seconded by Ms. Martinez and was approved. In each case the transcript records the maker and seconder and shows the board voting in favor; vote tallies were not stated in the transcript.

Why it matters: the approved contracts commit district funds and shape facilities and operations work—roof replacements and renovations affect campus safety and building condition, while the budget amendment and personnel contract approvals affect district expenditures and staffing for the coming year.
