Board approves Tuhali middle school site purchase authorization and $24.5M contract amendment for SHS Phase Two
Summary
At its June 9 special meeting the Sumner Bonney Lake School District board approved Resolution 23-25-26 authorizing a superintendent-executed purchase-and-sale agreement for a Tuhali middle school site, and Resolution 24-25-26 authorizing Contract Amendment No.1 with Skanska USA Building with a partial MAC not to exceed $24,515,377 plus Washington sales tax.
The Sumner Bonney Lake School District Board of Directors voted on two action items during its June 9, 2026 special meeting.
Resolution 23-25-26 (land purchase in Tuhali): The administration recommended that the board authorize the superintendent to execute a real estate purchase-and-sale agreement to acquire real property within the district for a middle school site located in Tuhali, described in the meeting as an employment-based master-planned community. A motion was made and seconded; the board approved the recommendation by voice vote.
Resolution 24-25-26 (SHS Phase Two modernization): The district presented the results of MAC package bid openings and recommended the board accept the results and authorize the superintendent or designee to execute Contract Amendment No.1 to the agreement with Skanska USA Building to establish a partial maximum allowable construction cost not to exceed $24,515,377 plus applicable Washington state sales tax. A motion was made, seconded and approved by voice vote.
Voting and procedure notes: Both motions were approved by voice vote; the transcript records multiple "aye" responses but does not include a roll-call tally or the names of movers and seconders. The meeting minutes should record official mover/second and any roll-call details.
Implementation notes: For Resolution 23 the transcript did not specify the seller, purchase price or closing timeline; the board action authorizes the superintendent to execute the purchase-and-sale agreement. For Resolution 24 the contract amount for the partial MAC was stated; details of the bid packages and schedule were not specified on the record.
What happens next: The transcript shows the motions passed and staff were authorized to proceed per the resolutions. The board adjourned after the presentations and Q&A on parks and recreation.
