Glynn County Schools reports construction progress, surplus equipment sales and a $97,949 BOE renovation credit
Summary
Board received updates on East Bloss capital projects (Glendale Elementary, Goodyear renovation, Sterling roof), a surplus-equipment list to be auctioned, and a BOE renovation change order credit of $97,949.39 that closes out the project and returns funds to local capital outlay.
Mr. Haywood updated the board on multiple capital projects and procurement items. He said the Glendale Elementary replacement is progressing on schedule (wing one complete, other wings moving through framing and finishes), Goodyear renovation demolition and spray-foam insulation work are underway, and Sterling roof replacement work mobilized on May 26 with major noisy activity scheduled before teachers return to avoid disrupting classes.
Finance staff reported East BL5 collections of $3,523,836 for the latest cycle — a second-highest collection and about $310,477 more than the same period a year earlier — and noted East BL5 year-to-date receipts exceed $42.22 million. Mr. Haywood asked the board to approve a surplus list including older maintenance trucks, an inoperable forklift and machine-shop equipment from a program the district no longer offers; staff said items will be listed on GovDeals for auction or disposal per policy.
On the BOE renovation, Mr. Haywood asked the board to approve a change order crediting $97,949.39 back to local capital outlay from the owner's contingency; he said the change order closes out the contractor contract and only minor in-house finishing work remains.
Next steps: staff requested board approval of the surplus list and the change-order closeout; the transcript does not record vote outcomes for those items in the excerpt.
