Onslow board approves contracts for Jacksonville High switchgear and Dixon High gym HVAC
Summary
The board awarded two capital contracts: Lancaster Electric Company for switchgear replacement at Jacksonville High School ($89,979) and Odyssey Mechanical LLC for Dixon High School annex gym HVAC replacement ($849,750), both contingent on payment and performance bonds.
The Onslow County Board of Education authorized two capital project contracts after staff presentations explained procurement and need. Dr. Gardner presented the Jacksonville High School switchgear replacement and said that replacement parts are increasingly difficult to find; Lancaster Electric Company was identified as the lowest responsive, responsible bidder with a total bid of $89,979. The board approved awarding the contract contingent on Lancaster obtaining required payment and performance bonds.
Dr. Gardner then described the Dixon High School annex gym HVAC replacement: both units had ceased functioning and could not be repaired. After a readvertised request for proposals and a May 21, 2026 bid opening, Odyssey Mechanical LLC was identified as the lowest responsive, responsible bidder at $849,750. The board approved the contract award, also contingent upon Odyssey Mechanical obtaining payment and performance bonds.
The transcript records staff explanations of the bidding process (advertisement and readvertisement dates) and the voice approvals, but does not include named roll‑call tallies for the votes.
