Culpeper board authorizes contract with Taft Construction for Mountain Run Elementary, pending post-award checks
Summary
The School Board voted Nov. 11 to authorize the superintendent to enter into a contract with apparent low bidder Taft Construction for ES#7 (Mountain Run Elementary) pending completion of post-award administrative requirements noted in the Notice of Intent to Award.
The Culpeper County School Board on Nov. 11 authorized the superintendent to enter into a contract with the apparent low bidder, Taft Construction, for the construction of ES#7 (Mountain Run Elementary), contingent on successful completion of all post-award administrative steps specified in the Notice of Intent to Award.
Christina Burnett moved the motion; Patricia Baker seconded. The motion carried with unanimous votes recorded for all members present.
Superintendent Tony Brads later told the board staff recommended postponing previously anticipated groundbreaking plans because questions raised during the general-contractor submissions required extending the bid process to ensure adequate time for site access and administrative review. He said further information on the groundbreaking will be provided when available.
The board record identifies Taft Construction as the apparent low bidder and ties the decision to standard post-award administrative checks; the record does not list contract value, final award date, or detailed milestone dates.
Next steps include completion of post-award administrative requirements and subsequent contract execution; staff will report additional schedule information as it becomes available.
