Board awards asbestos abatement at Pierce Middle School and three-year fiber maintenance contract
Summary
The Board of Education voted unanimously to award a $67,500 asbestos abatement contract for Pierce Middle School and a $376,500 three-year contract for fiber network maintenance (roughly $125,500 per year), funded by the 2020 bond and a mix of general fund and E-rate respectively.
At the March meeting the Waterford School District Board of Education approved two superintendent recommendations by unanimous voice votes.
The board voted to award a contract to Trust Thermal Abatement for asbestos abatement at Pierce Middle School in the amount of $67,500. Treasurer Donahue read the recommendation as the superintendent’s motion, which specified the funding source as the 2020 bond. The motion carried, recorded as "motion passes, five‑zero."
Separately, the board approved a three‑year contract with AMCOM for fiber network maintenance in the total amount of $376,500 (stated as a base bid of $125,500 per year). Assistant Superintendent Helbrecht explained the district installed its fiber network in 2017, an independent assessment identified repairs, and the district planned to use E‑rate funding supplemented by the general fund to cover the work. The motion to award AMCOM the contract passed five‑zero.
Both items were presented as superintendent recommendations and moved and supported before the roll calls; no individual roll-call vote names were read aloud during the motions. The meeting record shows the motions were moved and supported and the board affirmed each by a five‑zero vote.
