Summary
Trustees approved several bids for asbestos abatement, flooring, window repairs, site improvements and playground replacement; administration reported an $8,800 emergency sewer repair estimate for Krug School and said the district will proceed.
The Aurora East USD 131 Board on March 16 approved a package of building-and-grounds contracts and acknowledged an emergency repair at Krug School after a sewer backup forced a one-day closure.
Buildings and grounds staff summarized bids and recommended awards, which the board approved by roll call: asbestos abatement for East Aurora High School/Beaupre to Kinsale Contracting Group for $101,900; Oak Park and Krug asbestos abatement to Colfax Corporation for $84,250; elementary flooring replacement for Allen, Dietrich and Krug to Pinnacle Flooring Company for $157,500; preschool flooring to Tiles and Styles LLC (dba Taza Construction) for $113,861; administrative center window repairs to Auto Bomb Company for $147,200 (51 windows this year); and a site-improvements award to Schroeder Asphalt Services (transcript listed $200,129,000; administration and the board should verify the intended figure before publication).
Board members also approved purchase of replacement playground equipment for Benete STEAM Academy from Manufacturer Company Inc. for $26,512.20.
Separately, Andy Allen described emergency sewer problems at Krug School, including a buried manhole and a crushed clean-out in a six-inch pipe. Allen said parts of the line are on district property; he presented an estimate from Stokes Construction of $8,800 for immediate repairs (raise the manhole to grade and repair the damaged section) and asked the board to proceed to restore service so the school can remain open.
