Summary

After the original low bidder withdrew, the board approved a recommendation to award a reskinning and repair contract for the district maintenance shed to Cleary (recommended amount discussed as $630,572); board members asked for lead‑time and contingency language for unknown conditions.

Administration reported the original low bidder withdrew and recommended Cleary (contractor) after a detailed site walkthrough. The proposed work includes reskinning the existing maintenance shed, removing deteriorated metal, making necessary structural repairs and adding an open‑air bay to increase covered storage.

Board members asked about lead time and how the contractor would handle unknown conditions that might appear when demolition begins. Administrator (speaker 12) said Cleary re‑walked the building and added items to their proposal to capture additional repairs; staff agreed to secure clarification on start dates and contract language for unforeseen issues before awarding the work.

A motion to accept the recommendation and approve the Cleary bid passed by voice vote (recorded in the meeting as "motion is adopted" and earlier remarks recorded the amount discussed as $630,572). The board noted this is one of the remaining buildings in need of an update and asked staff to add follow‑up details to the project task list.
