Board approves restroom project, hears bid award and authorizes architects for major high‑school projects
Summary
Trustees approved a $400,000 restroom and changing area at Grant Bay High, recommended awarding a construction contract to Burco Constructors for $2,512,000, and authorized staff to solicit architects for Roseville and West Park modernization projects; the board also reviewed a K12 Strong Workforce grant application to expand a mechatronics pathway.
The Roseville Joint Union High School District Board approved several facilities actions, including a $400,000 special restroom and changing‑area improvement at Grant Bay High School, a low‑bid construction award, and authorizations to solicit architectural design services for major campus projects.
District staff said the Grant Bay restroom and changing‑area project addresses an urgent student need and would not materially alter the district’s larger facilities plan because of its modest $400,000 cost. "Being a $400,000 project we also have some students that are in need of these services at R by high school ... we felt it made sense to address this issue," a district staff member said.
Separately, staff recommended awarding a construction contract for a high‑school athletic project to Burco Constructors, the low bidder at $2,512,000. Trustees discussed construction costs and approved the award, with one trustee noting surprise at the cost but supporting the project to meet site needs.
Trustees authorized staff to solicit architectural proposals for modernization work at Roseville High School (including replacement of a deteriorating pool) and to begin design work for West Park High School to address capacity and theater needs. Staff said the Roseville project is high priority and that the Division of the State Architect review and phased construction timeline will influence scheduling.
On grants and CTE, the board considered a K12 Strong Workforce program grant application to expand a mechatronics pathway. Staff said the award would provide roughly 30 months of funding to support the pathway; if the program proves viable, the district would consider absorbing a funded staff position into its general budget when grant funds end.
Staff will return with design procurement documents, timelines for DSA review and phasing plans for construction. Trustees asked staff to closely weigh financing mixes, especially use of developer fees and state matching funds, before committing to major construction expenditures.
