Board approves reroof and awards construction manager for new elementary school
Summary
Trustees approved a $131,031.62 reroof of the district Technology Building funded by the 2021 bond and awarded Bartlett Cocke a preconstruction fee of $56,250 as CMAR for Elementary No. 9, funded by the 2023 bond program.
The Liberty Hill ISD Board of Trustees on Aug. 19 approved two capital-project actions: a reroof for the district's Technology Building and the selection of a construction manager at risk for Elementary No. 9 in the Saddleback development.
Mister Aiken presented a third-party engineering recommendation to install a TPO retrofit recover system on the pre-engineered metal technology building adjacent to Louis Noble Elementary. The board approved a contract with Dean Contracting for the roof system ($118,950), a payment/performance bond ($2,081.62) and a $10,000 contingency, for a total of $131,031.62 to be paid from the 2021 bond fund. Aiken said the proposed TPO system improves thermal performance and achieves a higher hail rating, which the district expects to reduce insurance costs.
On a related construction matter, administration recommended Bartlett Cocke General Contractors as the construction manager at risk for Liberty Hill Elementary No. 9; the board approved preconstruction services in the amount of $56,250 to be funded by the 2023 bond program and authorized the interim superintendent or designee to negotiate contract terms and a guaranteed maximum price when ready.
Both motions were approved by voice vote after trustee discussion; no roll-call tallies were read for these items in the public record. Board materials indicate the projects will be subject to standard contract insurance and warranty provisions and that work will be scheduled in coordination with the district's bond program.
