Summary

The committee recommended approval of several consent items: facility-use waivers for youth sports camps, declaration of surplus Grand Caillou property, awarding a three-year waste collection contract to Republic Services and accepting a low bid for Village East Elementary HVAC replacement.

The committee advanced multiple consent and procurement items on April 21.

Facility use: The committee recommended waiving policy 5E1.6 to allow the Houma Jets Track Club free weekday use of the Ellender Memorial High School track for the 2026 season (May 1–Aug 31) provided the organization reimburse custodial costs, hold necessary insurance, have nonprofit status and obtain principal approval. A similar waiver was recommended for The Set Project to use Terrebonne High School stadium for a one-day football camp on June 20, 2026; Craig Billy Jr. described the camp as free and capped at 84 participants for grades 8–12.

Surplus property: The committee recommended declaring the former Grand Caillou Elementary (6741 Grand Caillou Road, Dulac) surplus and authorized appraisal and sale procedures; Miss Allen said Anchor Four Square Church currently leases the campus and may seek to renew or purchase after appraisal.

Procurement: The committee recommended awarding a three-year garbage collection services contract to BFI Waste Services LLC d/b/a Republic Services (July 1, 2026–June 30, 2029) after an RFP process; staff said the anticipated three-year spend is approximately $654,696 (down from about $851,775 over the prior comparable period) although overflow charges could increase costs. The committee also recommended accepting the low bid for HVAC replacement at Village East Elementary from Dove Group LLC ($2,068,000) with alternates and a total project budget established at $2,858,076 from building funds.

All items were moved and seconded at committee and recorded without objection; recommendations will go to the full board for final action.
