Summary

The board authorized the superintendent to award base-contract amendments for Rancho Elementary roof repairs and the San Marin High mini-gym repair to EF Brett (EF Brett & Company) upon Division of State Architect sign-off; staff reported bids are under budget and DSA review is in progress.

Trustees approved delegations of authority allowing the superintendent or designee to award two campus repair projects to EF Brett (or EF Brett & Company) once the Division of the State Architect (DSA) completes its review.

District project staff said both projects were found to be best-value awards and that DSA reviews are at advanced stages (approximately 85% for fire/life safety and access control; structural reviews pending senior reviewer comments). They noted the bids are currently under budget and the district is reserving contingency funds for potential DSA-required ADA items.

The board voted unanimously (7 votes, 1 student advisory vote) to grant the delegated authority so projects may proceed quickly once DSA approval is received. Staff said DSA timelines may delay approvals by 6-8 weeks and they will request expedited review when possible.
