St. Landry Parish School Board approves HVAC, audit and supply contracts
Summary
The St. Landry Parish School Board on July 2 approved several procurement items: Star Services for HVAC work, an audit services contract (vendor name transcribed as 'CO slave'), and Lowe’s bids for noninstructional supplies and services. Board members said evaluations supported the recommendations.
The St. Landry Parish School Board voted July 2 to approve three procurement actions, awarding an HVAC contract to Star Services, approving an audit-services provider as transcribed in the record, and accepting Lowe’s bids for noninstructional copier paper, fuel, pest control and garbage collection.
Superintendent Matis told the board the selection committee followed the RFP evaluation process and recommended Star Services as the district’s HVAC provider. Mr. Carol presented the audit proposals and said the evaluation favored the transcribed vendor; "Colin had the better proposal for us and CO slave won," he said during the discussion. The board approved each item by voice vote.
Board members asked clarifying questions about the evaluation involvement and whether staff were confident in the recommendation. Mr. Carol confirmed he participated in the evaluation and endorsed the selection. No detailed dollar amounts for the audit contract were recorded in the transcript; the Lowe’s award covered a list of routine operational supplies and services.
The approvals finalize purchases that district officials said are needed for operations and facilities work ahead of the new school year. The board did not record roll-call vote tallies in the public transcript excerpt; items were approved by voice vote.
