Midway ISD moves forward on $83.5 million bond projects; board authorizes contract negotiations
Summary
Superintendent Chris Allen said the district is advancing projects funded by an $83.5 million bond and that the board authorized him to begin negotiating contracts for new roofs, floors and electrical marquees; schematic designs for a high-school addition were shared.
Superintendent Chris Allen said Midway ISD is advancing work funded by an $83.5 million bond approved by the community, and the board has authorized him to begin negotiating contracts to address deferred maintenance across the district. "Y'all, we asked our community to support an 83.5 million-dollar bond program so that we could do with deferred maintenance and make improvements across our district," Allen said.
Allen said the board was shown schematic designs for an addition to the high school at a recent meeting and that those plans are intended to support multiple programs. He said the board also authorized the superintendent to begin negotiating contracts for new roofs, new floors and electrical marquees as part of the first wave of work. Allen said, "The work is taking place and we're about to start seeing some improvements across our campus."
District officials did not provide a construction schedule or contractor names in the brief; Allen directed residents to the district website for timing and project-level updates. The superintendent advised community members to monitor midwayisd.org for additional information about when projects are scheduled for each campus and what to expect during construction.
The board action described was an authorization to begin negotiations; the transcript did not specify a motion text, who moved or seconded the authorization, or any vote tallies.
