Board selects CMAR construction delivery method for future capital projects
Summary
The Tom Bean ISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously to use the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) delivery method for recommended future capital projects, approving the motion 6–0 after a presentation on delivery options.
The Tom Bean Independent School District Board of Trustees voted on March 17, 2025 to use the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) method for upcoming capital projects recommended by the long-range facility committee. Trustee Beth Hale moved the motion, and Trustee James Hamilton seconded; the motion carried 6 in favor, 0 opposed.
Dr. Tyson Bennett presented various construction delivery methods to the board before the vote, describing options available to public schools and the implications of a one-step CMAR process for future facility work. The board’s motion specified CMAR as the chosen method for projects recommended by the long-range facilities committee; the board did not specify particular projects or a timeline in the recorded discussion.
Next steps noted in the meeting record: staff and the facilities committee will apply the CMAR approach when advancing capital projects and will return to the board with project-level planning, procurement steps and any required approvals.
