Board raises Bond Measure F single-contract spending limit to $100,000 to speed summer work
Summary
The Kenwood School District board approved increasing the 12-month spending limit for Bond Measure F from $5,000 to $100,000 and delegated authority to the superintendent to enter agreements and approve change orders to expedite summer construction through June 30, 2026; the board will ratify contracts at its next meeting.
The Kenwood School District Board of Trustees voted June 5 to raise the 12‑month spending limit tied to Bond Measure F from $5,000 to $100,000 and to authorize the superintendent to enter into agreements or approve change orders to expedite summer work through June 30, 2026. The motion was moved by James Larson and seconded by Teresa Jepson and was approved as recorded in the minutes.
Under the approved authorization, the board directed that the superintendent may approve contracts or change orders to keep construction moving during the summer and that the board will ratify any such contracts or change orders at its next available meeting. The increase is explicitly limited to the period ending June 30, 2026. The action was taken amid staff reports that construction on the district’s new Art/STEAM and sixth-grade buildings began June 4.
The decision is recorded in the meeting minutes under the board’s action items and is tied to several simultaneous construction approvals and change orders approved the same day. The minutes note the specific procedural requirement that the board will ratify any contracts at the next board meeting; no vote tally beyond the recorded motion and second is given in the minutes.
