Summary

At a July 2 special meeting, the Tri-Center Board of Education approved splitting campus concrete work between Tony Construction ($49,560) and Lupe’s Concrete ($36,000) after an initial motion to award a single contractor failed for lack of a second. Vote: 5-0.

The Tri-Center Comm School District Board of Education on July 2 approved splitting two concrete contracts for campus work, awarding $49,560 to Tony Construction for Senior Hill and door entrances and $36,000 to Lupe’s Concrete for the elementary front. The action passed unanimously, 5-0, during a special meeting conducted by conference call.

The board first considered a motion by board member Katie Ausdemore to approve a single bid from Tony Construction; that motion received no second and therefore did not advance. Ausdemore then moved, with a second from Mike Olsen, to divide the work between the two bidders as described. The split-award motion carried 5-0.

Board members present for the vote were Board President Sara Arnold, Katie Ausdemore, Mike Olsen, Jeremy VanArsdol and Amanda Scherer. District officials on the call included Superintendent Angie Huseman, Principal Chad Harder, Pro Tem Maintenance Director Brent Daringer and Board Secretary/Business Manager Jennifer Harder.

The meeting record does not include additional details about project timelines, payment terms, or contract contingencies discussed; those specifics were not specified in the meeting minutes. The board adjourned at 7:51 a.m.
