Board briefed on summer GMPs; Elliott Point Elementary roof cited at about $1.5 million
Summary
The board's owner's representative and program manager briefed members on multiple Guaranteed Maximum Price package items slated for summer work, including cafeteria renovations, restroom projects, security upgrades and a roughly $1.5 million roof replacement at Elliott Point Elementary; presenters said GMPs were previously briefed and will come forward for vote.
The Okaloosa County School Board received a briefing on multiple Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) items and task-order scope modifications tied to the district’s summer construction program.
Board representative Mr. Hindley summarized that the items now coming for board consideration had been briefed at a previous meeting and are intended to fund the summer work schedule. Program manager Mr. Keith reviewed specific task orders including a STEM Academy cafeteria renovation, Meigs Middle School ramp and restroom renovations, district-wide restroom scope and minor renovation task orders, phase‑two security upgrades (including Salto electronic locking), and an Elliott Point Elementary roof replacement project the board noted at about $1.5 million.
Presenters emphasized the work is part of planned summer maintenance and upgrades; several items will be packaged as GMPs and brought back to the board for formal approval. One board member commented on the high cost of roofing projects and the nearly $1.5 million figure for the Elliott Point work was singled out as an example of material summer expenses.
Next steps: staff said GMPs would be returned for formal action at a future meeting; no final vote on GMPs was recorded at this session.
