Summary

Staff told the board that three construction bids were received and the lowest—"just under $10,600,000"—came from Tyler Lane Construction for a full Deerpath renovation plus work at 3 Oaks; staff said vetting is underway and a recommendation will be made next week.

District construction staff told the Cary CCSD 26 committee on Feb. 17 that the district opened three bids for the summer 2026 construction season and the lowest bid, from Tyler Lane Construction, came in at "just under $10,600,000," staff said.

"We did hold the bid opening last week. We had three bids that were submitted, and the lowest bid was submitted by Tyler Lane Construction," Mr. Shepherd told the committee. Shepherd said the figure covers a complete renovation of Deerpath and work at 3 Oaks to finish the recent renovation there.

Shepherd cautioned that staff is still vetting the low bidder and "going through all of the different requirements that they were required to answer to," and said staff would bring a recommendation next week when the board will be asked to consider award and approval.

The committee did not take a vote on Feb. 17; staff emphasized that the bids were "fairly close together" and that staff wants to ensure all required documentation is complete before making a formal recommendation.
