Board awards freezer contract, approves Ag grant and EV/carts grant awards
Summary
Trustees approved the LaNotte Refrigeration contract for a Hillside Elementary walk-in freezer, accepted an Agricultural CTE Incentive Grant, and approved San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District grant components for two EV cars and electric cart fleet expansion.
The Chawanakee Unified School District Board approved several grants and contracts at its Aug. 12 meeting.
Principal Rhonda Corippo sought and received approval for the 2025-2026 Agricultural Career Technical Education Incentive Grant. Director of Maintenance, Operations and Transportation (MOT) Nick Von Flue presented a contract award to LaNotte Refrigeration INC for the Hillside Elementary walk-in freezer project; the board approved the contract unanimously.
Von Flue also presented two San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Public Benefits grant components: one for purchase of two EV cars to assist site-wide logistics and update the aging fleet, and another to expand the district's electric carts fleet; both grant components were approved unanimously. Trustees approved the awards and authorized staff to proceed with purchase and contract execution.
The minutes do not record detailed dollar amounts for the LaNotte contract or the EV/carts procurement, though the CAEP MOU earlier in the meeting specified an adult education allocation of not more than $141,238.
