Summary
The Mehlville R-IX Board approved multiple Prop S capital projects on April 23: a perimeter fencing contract for $109,250, Oakville High restroom renovations (Brady Construction), and interior door replacements across schools (DH Pace) with a $442,000 authorization, all by unanimous vote.
During its April 23 meeting the Mehlville R-IX School District Board of Education reviewed updates on Prop S-funded facilities projects and approved multiple recommended contractor bids.
Facilities director Mike Gegg summarized completed work and work in progress, noting structural steel and concrete flatwork are finished at a project site and that phase 2 of another project (Mosaic) is expected to begin soon. Gegg outlined schedules for air barrier work, brickwork, roofing and interior demolition tied to school calendars.
The board approved three discrete recommendations:
- A perimeter fencing contract with Easter Fence for $109,250 to be paid from the facilities capital budget; the motion carried 7-0.
- Oakville High School restroom renovations: the board approved the recommendation to award the Brady Construction bid; the project is to be funded through the Prop S capital budget and, if approved, construction will begin May 26 with completion targeted for August 2026.
- Interior door replacement across both high schools and four middle schools: Gegg described a scope of roughly 441 doors. The board approved the DH Pace recommendation and an associated funding authorization for $442,000 as presented.
Each bid was approved by unanimous voice vote. Board members noted the projects are scheduled to proceed this summer and that permits and contractor scheduling are in process.
