Board reviews Meadowbrook renovation low‑bid package totaling up to $11.94 million
Summary
Finance staff told the board Meadowbrook bidding spanned 18 categories and 63 bids; replacing exterior windows was recommended and the district reported a total cost not to exceed $11,943,231, absorbed within bond balances.
Finance presenter Dr. Michelle told the board Meadowbrook construction bidding attracted 63 bids across 18 categories and recommended accepting the low bid even with an added scope to replace exterior windows. She said the work increased cost but when factored in the low bidder still represented the recommended option and reported a total not to exceed $11,943,231. "Total cost not to exceed $11,943,231," Dr. Michelle said during the finance report.
Dr. Michelle noted Meadowbrook is an older building and while the total is a little over the projected amount, the district expects to absorb the cost from the bond balance and cited a recent track record of coming in under budget on comparable projects. The board discussion in the excerpt did not record a formal vote; the item was presented as an action item in the finance section and recommended for approval.
