RPD School Board approves design contract with Lancer Associates for roof and HVAC work
Summary
The board approved a phase‑1 design agreement with Lancer Associates to replace roofs at district schools (excluding the early childhood center) and perform HVAC design at Edgewood High School and Edgewood Junior High; the contract price was reported in the meeting as roughly $580,600 and Creative Engineering was identified as a subcontractor included in the lump sum.
The RPD School Board voted to approve a design agreement with Lancer Associates to move forward with phase‑1 work that will replace roofs at district schools (except the early childhood center) and include HVAC design for Edgewood High School and Edgewood Junior High.
Doctor Sanders introduced the agreement and said Lancer Associates has provided satisfactory architectural services on past projects such as the early childhood center and the field house. The contract before the board covers design services for roofs and HVAC work; the amount presented in the meeting was stated as "580, thousand $600" (reported in meeting materials and read aloud by administration).
A board member clarified that Creative Engineering will serve as a subcontractor to Lancer Associates and that their work is included in the lump‑sum fee rather than billed separately. Board members discussed prior project totals; one member referenced a combined approximate total of $8.2 million for previous roofs and HVAC projects as context for the district’s capital spending.
When asked for detailed HVAC cost breakdowns, administrators said estimates exist but were not provided at the meeting; further project estimates and procurement steps will follow the design phase.
The board approved the design agreement by voice vote.
