Sublette USD 374 board votes to seek bids to replace auditorium doors, stucco some window areas
Summary
The Sublette USD No. 374 Board voted Oct. 14 to seek bids to replace auditorium doors and apply stucco to some windowed areas rather than replacing all windows; asbestos abatement was quoted separately. The motion passed unanimously, and staff will solicit bids.
The Sublette Unified School District No. 374 Board of Education voted Oct. 14 to solicit bids to replace auditorium doors and to stucco some areas that currently contain windows, with asbestos removal quoted as a separate cost.
Sonya Pena, Middle/High School Principal, told the board the existing windows "look nice" but "are often broken," and the board compared quotes that weighed full window replacement against using stucco in some areas. Board member Lee Mason moved to seek bids; President Cornelius Froese seconded the motion, which carried 5-0.
Board discussion noted that the windows' condition and separate asbestos-removal estimates affect the timing and cost. The minutes record that messages were left for Voth Construction but that no return call was received while the board compared available quotes. The board did not approve a vendor at the meeting; the action authorized staff to solicit competitive bids and return with recommendations.
The motion record available in the minutes identifies Mason as the mover and Froese as the seconder; the motion passed unanimously. The board did not set a specific budget figure or timeline for construction in the minutes.
Next steps: district staff will gather competitive bids for the work and present recommendations at a future board meeting. Asbestos removal will be handled as a separate line item in any procurement process, according to the minutes.
