Board ratifies hazmat monitoring amendment and sets cap for material‑testing contract
Summary
Trustees ratified the superintendent's approval of a HazMatDoc contract amendment for kitchen improvements and approved Amendment #1 with Nino and Moore for material testing, adding a not‑to‑exceed cap equal to the contractor's estimate as discussed at the meeting.
The board ratified a superintendent‑level approval and amendment with HazMatDoc to provide hazardous‑materials abatement monitoring and clearance for the kitchen improvement project; trustees said monitoring and post‑work clearance reports will be provided before spaces return to use.
Trustees also discussed a separate amendment with Nino and Moore for material testing and inspection services. A trustee asked why the contract language did not include a not‑to‑exceed amount and moved to approve the amendment with a cap equal to the contractor's cost estimate. The trustee articulated the change as "a not to exceed amount, equal to the estimated amount, which is 7,000, $750 rather than what's currently drafted," and the board approved the amendment by voice vote with that cap in place. Trustees asked staff to include routine not‑to‑exceed language or ratification steps for future technical contracts.
