Board considers contractor amendment for Clyde Boyd Middle School renovation; revised GMP figure recorded in transcript
Summary
On April 6, 2026 the Sand Springs Public Schools board heard an explanation of and moved to approve an amendment to LD Karns Contractors' guaranteed maximum price for the Clyde Boyd Middle School renovation; the transcript records a revised 'grand maximum price' figure whose numeric formatting in the record is unclear.
The Sand Springs Public Schools board on April 6 considered a contractor amendment tied to the Clyde Boyd Middle School renovation and moved to approve changes to the project's guaranteed maximum price (GMP).
Josh, a project representative invited to the meeting, told the board the district will proceed with demolition and renovation work this summer and that adjusting utilities and removing a connected building section has required detailed planning. "We're going to be able to do the renovation and demolition this summer," Josh said when explaining the logistics and the changes to the fire-panel scope.
Board members discussed a motion to approve an amendment to LD Karns Contractors' GMP that removes specified fire-panel work (the transcript references Summit Fire and Security in the list of exclusions and line-item adjustments) and adds other scope items. A motion to approve the LD Karns contractor grand maximum price amendment for the Clyde Boyd Middle School project was made and seconded; the board called for a vote and then proceeded to the next agenda item after the vote was recorded in the meeting minutes.
The transcript records a revised "grand maximum price" figure in the motion text as transcribed (appearing as "26,93713.99" in the record). The numeric formatting in the transcript is unclear; the district's official contract documents or minutes should be consulted for the authoritative dollar figure.
The board's action was recorded in the meeting minutes and the discussion indicated the sixth-grade center will share a singular fire alarm system with the gymnasium and auditorium after the change. The district indicated the renovation and demolition work may not be completed before school starts but that building readiness for students is expected at the beginning of the school term.
Next steps: The district recorded the amendment in the minutes and the board moved on to the next agenda item; the meeting transcript does not include a separate, detailed procedural recap of procurement steps or contractor submittals beyond the motion and the vote.
