Summary
Trustees approved a $6,250 change order so engineers can test and balance Laramie High School’s heating system and avoid future, larger repairs; funding will come from the major maintenance fund.
The board approved a $6,250 change order to finish testing and balancing work related to the Laramie High School (LHS) boiler refurbishment.
Mister Wilkerson explained the change order and the project background. He said the building’s original development involved cost reductions to the mechanical system and the current boiler plant had not been matched to the remainder of the HVAC system. The additional $6,250 will fund a test‑and‑balance effort to identify required adjustments to air handlers and other components so the full system will operate properly and to reduce future change orders.
Wilkerson said the work will be paid from the district’s major maintenance fund. Trustees moved and seconded the change order; the motion passed by voice vote.
Ending Staff told trustees the change order is intended to prevent additional, more expensive fixes in the future and recommended approval to complete the system assessment and balancing.
