Summary
District staff said design for controlled entrances at seven schools is about 20% complete and requested board authorization for Riley Construction to finish detailed design work so the district can finalize project cost estimates; the transcript does not record a final vote.
District staff reported on the controlled-entrance safety project covering seven schools and said the design work is roughly 20% complete. At the meeting, staff said earlier cost estimates were made during periods of tariff-driven uncertainty and that revised detailed design work is needed to produce current project cost figures.
Superintendent Dr. Weiss said the board must decide whether to authorize the next phase of work; facilities staff asked the board to authorize Riley Construction to finish the detailed design so the district can finalize costs and select funding options. “At this stage, we need to finalize what the project cost will be,” staff said, noting that earlier uncertainties may have inflated prior estimates.
