Harlandale ISD updates bond project services and seeks bank depository resolution during work session
Summary
Trustees reviewed a final payment for a JROTC construction contract, authorized archaeological monitoring and materials testing for athletic projects in the Bond 2022 program, and heard administration's recommendation to adopt a bank depository resolution naming existing authorized signers for Lone Star National Bank.
At the May 14 work session, Harlandale Independent School District staff brought several bond-program and procurement items to trustees for review.
David Flores, assistant superintendent for business and finance, asked the board to consider a final payment of $232,203 to W.R. Griggs for the McCollum High School JROTC project to be funded from the Bond 2022 program. Flores described the item as the “final payment” and did not note objections from trustees during the presentation.
Staff also recommended contracting Robert Lisonbee for construction materials observation and testing services for improvements to the district’s tennis courts and baseball and softball fields at the Tejeda Complex, at an estimated cost of $54,927 to be funded by Bond 2022. Flores said archaeological monitoring and materials observation are required because of proximity to San Jose Burial Park and Camp Stinson and that work will comply with Texas Historical Commission requirements.
Trustee Luna asked whether construction had started; staff said demolition and groundwork have begun and that testing and monitoring are scheduled before stabilization and turf installation.
Separately, administration presented a bank depository resolution related to the district’s contract award for bank depository services to Lone Star National Bank (RFP 250807). Flores said the bank requested a board‑approved resolution naming authorized signers; administration recommended keeping the district’s existing signers — the superintendent, the assistant superintendent for business and finance (Flores) and the chief accountant, Patricia Lopez. The resolution was provided in the board packet for review.
Board discussion on these procurement and contract matters was brief; trustees did not record separate roll‑call votes on these items during the work session.
