Summary
Staff said the Alaska Department of Education approved funding of $875,000 for Northstar Elementary School siding and window upgrades; three contractors bid and the low bid was Wolverine Supply at about $778,000. The manager recommended authorizing the manager to execute the contract.
The assembly heard a staff report recommending authorization for the manager to execute a construction contract to complete siding and window upgrades at Northstar Elementary School.
Staff said the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development approved $875,000 for the project and that the borough received three bids; the low bid was Wolverine Supply at approximately $778,000. Staff noted Wolverine Supply performed work on a prior gym project and recommended awarding the contract subject to standard procurement checks.
Council members asked staff to confirm the remaining project budget and the exact funding split with the school district. Staff said they would provide more detailed budget breakout and documentation in the next meeting packet.
Why it matters: the work affects school facilities and uses state-approved funding; timely award and construction are important to meet project schedules.
Ending: Staff recommended the assembly authorize the manager to enter the contract with the low bidder, subject to final funding confirmations and contract execution steps.
