Sequoia Union board approves design and construction amendments for multiple high‑school projects
Summary
The Sequoia Union board unanimously approved amendments and contracts for capital projects at Carlmont, Sequoia and Woodside high schools, moving several bond-funded projects to action items and approving amendments for design, potholing and commissioning work.
Sequoia Union High School District trustees unanimously approved several contract amendments and project agreements on capital improvements at Monday’s meeting.
The board approved an amendment with Verde Design Incorporated to add design and construction-administration scope for the Highland multi‑use field at Carlmont High School; the motion passed unanimously after a trustee asked why certain bond-funded items were moved from the consent agenda to the action calendar. Trustees also approved Amendment No. 2 for Sequoia High School potholing with RK Associates, DBA Escon Builders, and a contract with P2S (listed in the record as PS2/P2S) for commissioning services related to the new E‑wing classroom buildings at Woodside High School. There was no public comment on these items.
The projects were discussed as part of the district’s capital facilities work tied to bond-funded improvements. A trustee asked staff to clarify the selection process for items moved to action from consent; staff indicated the district is moving capital facilities and bond projects to the action calendar going forward for fuller board review. The board then called for motions and approved each item by voice or roll call with unanimous support.
Board procedure: the consent agenda was waived and the action items were considered individually so trustees could ask clarifying questions about scope and costs. The record does not include additional budget details or contract dollar amounts for the items presented.
What happens next: district staff will proceed with the amended design and construction-administration work for the Carlmont high project, the Sequoia potholing work and the commissioning engagement for Woodside High’s E‑wing per the approved contracts; no further board action was recorded at the meeting on these items.
