LCSD1 board approves architect contract and transportation fuel‑island design work
Summary
The board approved a professional services agreement for an architectural consultant (not to exceed $100,000) and approved Edberg Miller for transportation fuel‑island design and a driver's training pad assessment totaling $91,150; staff said the fuel‑island work is to accommodate newly purchased gas buses and may be reimbursable.
The Laramie County School District #1 Board of Trustees approved two professional services contracts during its meeting.
The board voted to increase a professional‑services contract with an on‑call architectural consultant — part of a previously established RFP pool — in an amount not to exceed $100,000 to serve as a facility project planner/architect consultant for ongoing projects (including McCormick Junior High renovation and new elementary construction). The motion was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
The board also approved professional services with Edberg Miller for the design and replacement of the transportation fuel island ($77,150) and the design and site assessment for a driver's training pad ($14,000), for a total contract of $91,150 (inclusive of a 10% contingency for governmental fees). District staff explained the work is for the transportation facility because the district has recently purchased gas buses and existing infrastructure supports only diesel fueling; staff said the transportation director believed the project could be reimbursable by the state.
Both motions were seconded and approved by the board; no roll‑call vote or individual tallies were recorded in the public transcript for these motions. Trustee questions focused on the purpose of the funding and which facilities the contracts would serve. The board moved to executive session later in the meeting on separate student and personnel matters.
