Fort LeBoeuf board authorizes bidding for Waterford Elementary renovation in 6–1 vote
Summary
The Fort LeBoeuf School District board voted 6–1 to authorize administration to bid the Waterford Elementary Renovation Project, including essential infrastructure work and educational-enhancement add alternates; Marvin Cross cast the lone no vote.
The Fort LeBoeuf School District Board of Directors voted 6–1 on May 21 to authorize administration to solicit bids for the Waterford Elementary Renovation Project, including required infrastructure improvements and recommended educational enhancements as add alternates. The motion was made by Heath Strasser and seconded by James Dwyer; Marvin Cross registered the single ‘‘no’’ vote on the roll call while all other members present voted yes.
The authorization directs district administration to prepare and release bid documents for the renovation and to include specified add alternates for enhancements recommended by the Capital Projects Committee. The board did not approve contract awards at the meeting; the motion approved only the bidding step and scope parameters that bidders will price.
Board members who voted yes on the motion included Heath Strasser, Scott Taylor, James Dwyer, Ted Szall, Renee Turi and Bruce Hordusky. The district’s minutes record Marvin Cross as the dissenting vote; Mr. Cross did not elaborate in the minutes on his reasons for voting no.
Next steps, as described in the minutes, are for the administration to proceed with the bid process. A future board meeting will include any recommendation for award and final contract approvals once bids are opened and reviewed.
