La Grange D105 to pay $69,926 to Modern Media Tech to fix access-control wiring and add security points
Summary
The board approved a $69,926.15 contract with Modern Media Tech LLC to correct wiring irregularities from 2023 and add access controls for additional doors, aligning with a prior West40 security audit; work is planned during non-instructional periods.
District staff told the board that a 2023 installation left wiring irregularities that caused inconsistent key-fob access at several buildings. Mr. Steven Smidl presented two quotes from Modern Media Tech LLC — one to add additional access controls to previously incomplete security points and another to rewire the buildings to eliminate the irregularities. Mr. Smidl described the work as aligned with recommendations from the West40 security audit.
The board approved the purchase and installation of access controls and rewiring with Modern Media Tech LLC for $69,926.15 (motion by Megan Goggin, seconded by Dr. Robert Sherman). The motion passed on a unanimous roll call. The minutes note the work will be scheduled when students and staff are not in the buildings to minimize disruption.
