The Taft Independent School District Board of Trustees voted unanimously Sept. 23 to approve the Taft High School Package Guaranteed Maximum Price Number 2 (GMP #2), the district record shows.
The board approved GMP #2 in a motion that the minutes record as "Approval of the Taft High School Package Guaranteed Maximum Price - Number 2 (GMP 2), proposed by SpawGlass and authorizing the Superintendent to proceed." GMP #2 was listed at $48,623,618.00 and the owner's contingency at $1,405,915.00. The motion was made by Paul Luis Trevif1o and seconded by Greg Benedict; the minutes record the vote as 7'0yea, 0'nay.
Kendra Hickman and Mayra Pif1on of AGCM provided the board with a broader bond update immediately before the vote; Justin Caskey of SpawGlass reported on earthwork progress for the new campus. The board's approval authorizes the district to move forward with the GMP as proposed by SpawGlass and to use the established contingency as described in meeting materials.
District documents attached to the minutes identify SpawGlass as the construction manager and list the GMP and contingency amounts; the board record shows no dissenting votes. Next procedural steps in the minutes indicate the superintendent has authorization to proceed under the terms approved by the trustees.
