Clovis Unified School District’s Governing Board on April 8 approved a series of contracts, construction expenditures and bid awards affecting district facilities and services.
The board authorized a service agreement with the California Teaching Fellows Foundation to provide professional development for the district’s Career Technical Education pathway and approved construction costs and the related lease-leaseback payment schedule for increment seven of the Terry P. Bradley Educational Center. The board also awarded several procurement bids, including Bid No. 3060 (kitchen HVAC replacement at various sites), Bid No. 3062 (rebid district fleet vehicle replacement), Bid No. 3063 (painting at various sites), Bid No. 3066 (fencing at various sites) and Bid No. 3067 (rebid radio communication equipment). Each of these action items was recorded as passed with the full board voting in favor where votes were recorded.
Why it matters: The approvals clear the way for scheduled capital and maintenance work across the District and secure vendor services for transportation, facilities and communications that the district relies on to operate schools and programs.
Board procedure and votes: The motions for the listed bids and contracts were moved and seconded as shown in the meeting record (for example, several motions were moved by Board Member Steven Fogg and seconded by Board Member Clinton Olivier) and recorded as passed with unanimous affirmative tallies where specified. Earlier in the meeting the agenda itself was adopted 6–0, with Board Member Yolanda Moore noted as not present for that particular vote.
What was authorized and next steps: The district was authorized to execute the CTFF service agreement for the 2025–26 school year and to execute schedule-of-sublease payments tied to increment seven of the Terry P. Bradley Educational Center lease-leaseback agreement. Contractors and vendors identified in the bid tabulations may now proceed under contract terms to deliver the specified work; some bid recommendations will be brought back for final contract execution as noted in board materials.
Clarifying details: The board ratified purchase orders, contracts and checks numbered 560707742 through 560708902 and approved change orders as submitted. The meeting minutes list the specific Bid Numbers awarded as 3060, 3062, 3063, 3066 and 3067; additional bid recommendations (Bid Nos. 3068, 3069, 3071, 3074 and 3075) were presented as items to be brought for action at a future meeting.
What the board did not decide tonight: Several informational items—such as proposed amended board policies, textbook adoptions for 2026–27, calendar approvals and certain lease or architect appointments—were presented for review and are scheduled for future action; they were not adopted at this meeting.
The meeting record shows the board approved the listed contract and construction items on motions recorded in the minutes; officials did not provide extended debate in the public minutes. The board adjourned at 8:53 p.m.
