Board signs off on $5.5M+ in pay apps, furniture and demolition invoices tied to new high school projects
Summary
Sinton ISD approved multiple contracts and invoices during the Sept. 16 consent agenda, including pay applications to Bartlett Cocke totaling more than $3.9 million across packages, furniture costs of $888,808.68 for the new high school, and demolition and fencing invoices for the old high school site and stadium.
The board approved a long list of contracts and invoices exceeding $50,000 as part of the consent agenda on Sept. 16, supporting the district's bond-funded construction work and facility outfitting. Key approvals included Bartlett Cocke pay applications (Pay App #28 at $1,633,443.29 and Pay App #29 at $2,271,926.88), A. Bargas & Associates furniture for the new high school at $888,808.68, and Camacho Demolition Pay App #3 at $236,034.20 for old high school abatement and demolition.
Other approved invoices included architect fees to Corgan Associates in the $75,000 range for June and July, program manager fees to Gallagher Construction ($50,417.00 per month), Rio Roofing pay app $190,256.50 for Sinton Elementary, and a property insurance renewal to McGriff Insurance Services for $631,480.46 covering the New High School policy period. The district also approved purchases for instructional materials totaling six-figure amounts (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt $198,865.30 for K–8 science; SAVVAS $111,010.25 for high school science).
Why it matters: the approvals authorize contractors and vendors to invoice the district and keep construction and procurement schedules on track for the new high school, multipurpose building and other projects. Most items were approved as routine consent agenda business; the board did not separate any of these invoices for individual discussion.
