Board approves architectural contract amid questions about scope and cost (6–1)
Summary
Board reviewed SAP contract amendments and approved a contract with Satin Architecture; the package included an hourly $225,000 line for a district activities master plan and an architectural fee of 7.5% for phase work on the Robert Beckett Foster Center.
Board members reviewed amendments to the SAP contracting package, including an Amendment 1 representing the master‑planning work (presenters said the hourly plus expenses line cited equals $225,000 in work for district activities planning) and Amendment 2 covering architectural services for the Robert Beckett Foster Center at 7.5% of construction cost. Trustees asked for clarification about scope and why amounts increased since the study session; staff said the work represented finalizing deliverables and settling compensation for services already performed.
After questions and brief discussion, a board member moved to approve the contract with Satin Architecture as presented. The motion carried in a recorded voice vote, reported in the minutes as 6–1. The board did not approve additional bid awards in this meeting; administration said all bids would return to the board for approval before construction begins.
