Carman-Ainsworth board approves $124,200 plan to demolish Stalker Elementary
Summary
The Carman-Ainsworth Board of Education unanimously approved a $92,500 low base bid from Falcon Demolition and a $31,700 parking-lot alternate — a $124,200 total — to demolish Stalker Elementary; administrators said eight proposals were received and restroom renovation bids will be reviewed further.
The Carman-Ainsworth Board of Education voted unanimously July 8 to approve the low base bid from Falcon Demolition of Clio, Michigan, to demolish Stalker Elementary School and accepted an alternate to remove the school’s parking lot, bringing the total to $124,200.
Assistant Superintendent of Business and Operations Russell Parks told the board earlier that the district received eight proposals for the Stalker demolition and that the recommendation to accept Falcon’s low bid would be presented to the board. The approved contract lists a $92,500 base bid and a $31,700 alternate for the parking-lot demolition.
Parks also reported that this afternoon’s bid openings for two restroom renovations — one at the high school and one at the middle school — produced higher-than-anticipated bids and are under review, leaving the district to evaluate next steps for those projects.
The vote to approve the demolition bid was made by Lisa Koegel, supported by La Cracha Handy, and passed by roll-call with all members voting in the affirmative.
The board did not specify a demolition start date in the minutes; funding is recorded as part of bond projects discussed in staff reports but a detailed budget line and timing for the demolition were not specified in the meeting record.
