Morton 201 seeks architects and construction managers for planned CTE center
Summary
District staff presented Green Sheets asking the board to authorize RFQs for an architect and a construction manager for a proposed CTE Center adjacent to the Freshman Center and Alternative School, citing hands-on career pathways and specialized facility needs.
District administrators asked the board to permit Requests for Qualifications to find an architect and a construction manager for a proposed Career and Technical Education (CTE) Center to be built on district-owned property adjacent to the Morton Freshman Center and the Morton Alternative School. The Green Sheets describe the intent to provide "hands-on learning environments" where students can earn industry certifications while in high school and request firms with specialized CTE experience.
Chief Financial Officer Christopher Blomquist and Superintendent Dr. Timothy Truesdale presented the memos and recommended the board approve issuing RFQs for both architectural services and a construction manager to support planning and delivery of the CTE facility. The Green Sheets cite Board Policy 4:150 (Facility Management and Building Programs) as the governing policy for the procurement step; administration recommended the board proceed with RFQs at this meeting.
