Board approves $571,899.80 replacement of Novi High School chiller
Summary
The Novi Board approved purchase and installation of a new high‑school chiller totaling $571,899.80, funded from 2019 bond and sinking funds, after administrators reported the 21‑year‑old unit had exceeded its useful life and one circuit had failed.
The Novi Community School District Board of Education voted to purchase and install a new high‑school chiller at a total cost of $571,899.80, funded from the 2019 bond and sinking funds.
Administration told the board the existing chiller “is 21 years old and has exceeded its 20‑year useful life expectancy,” and that one circuit had already failed while the other was running intermittently. The board approved a motion by Mr. Mena to buy the unit and proceed with installation after a short discussion and a refiled motion; the vote was recorded as unanimous.
The board packet included a cost breakdown: consortium pricing $490,480.00; tax $29,428.80; a recommended 10% contingency of $51,991.00. Administration said ordering by Dec. 16 would allow delivery and installation the week of March 24. No alternatives or vendor protests were recorded in the minutes.
