Annandale board approves nearly $3 million mechanical upgrade at high school
Summary
The board voted to award the base bid of $2,986,342 for Annandale High School mechanical improvements and rejected an alternate sound‑reduction bid; the project will include commissioning and planned contingencies.
The Annandale board voted to approve the low bid for the Annandale High School mechanical improvement project and to reject the optional Alternate 1 sound‑reduction tier.
Rick reviewed the award letter and the bid tabulation, saying the recommendation was to award the base bid of $2,986,342 to the low contractor and to reject Alternate 1 (sound reduction) because the incremental benefit did not justify the price. He explained that the contract includes construction costs, fees (architect, engineer), commissioning required by state law and a contingency line to address unexpected items.
K. called for the motion; it was moved by Jen and seconded by Gina. A voice vote was recorded as "Aye" and the motion carried.
The board did not add amendments to the award; the project is scheduled to begin after the school year ends and staff will oversee contractor punch‑list items and commissioning work as required by the contract documents.
