At its March 23, 2026 working meeting in Greensburg, the Hempfield Area School District board agenda included a recommended motion from the Buildings & Grounds/Transportation committee to award base and alternate construction bids for additions and renovations to Hempfield Area Senior High School with a grand total bid amount of $118,805,610 to be paid from the GOB 2022 Fund.
Vince DeAugustine, chair of the district’s Buildings & Grounds/Transportation committee, is listed on the agenda as the sponsor of the recommended action to award the bids to the lowest responsible bidders. The agenda also includes a separate recommended motion to reject all bids received and opened by the district on March 10, 2026, for demolition and debris removal of the wind‑damaged portion of the district’s bus garage and the district’s old food service building and to re‑advertise the full demolition project for a second solicitation.
The agenda language identifies funding for the construction awards as the GOB 2022 Fund; it does not list contract awardees, contract execution dates, or vote results for these agenda items in the provided transcript. Earlier in the meeting, Jerry Radebaugh, board president, announced the board had met in executive session from 6:00 to 6:55 PM to discuss contracts and personnel matters.
The motions appear as action items on the working meeting agenda. The transcript provided does not record a board vote or final approval for the construction awards or the demolition‑bid rejection; the items are presented as recommended actions on the agenda and would proceed through the district’s procurement and contracting process if approved in a subsequent vote or meeting.
