Triton Consultants presented a modernization plan for Rockford Elementary that focuses on electrical-system upgrades, HVAC compliance and a construction schedule aimed at completion before the 2026–27 school year.
Consultant Joseph Martinez described review of electrical materials including main switchgear, switches and conductors; he said trenching and underground boring are planned for winter break and that drone technology will be used to locate existing electrical lines. Martinez noted that material orders are under way and that a state-certified electrician is part of the project team to ensure compliance and quality assurance. "The overall goal is to complete the project by the start of the 2026-27 school year," Martinez said.
Martinez also acknowledged the age of the school and said the team is planning for potential unknowns and preparing documentation to meet funding and audit requirements. The board heard the presentation and recorded the update in the minutes; no formal vote on contracting was recorded in the meeting notes.
