The Blanco ISD Board approved a Guaranteed Maximum Price amendment with Joeris for the CTE steel package not to exceed $1,141,514, including authorization for a 20% advance payment and delegation to the superintendent to finalize details.
The Blanco Independent School District Board of Trustees approved a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) Amendment to the Construction Manager At Risk agreement with Joeris for the CTE steel package on June 24, 2026. The motion, made by Aaron Lux and seconded by Robert Allison, set the GMP “in the amount not to exceed $1,141,514” and authorized an advance payment of 20% as part of the amendment.
Board discussion included representatives and staff — Dr. Tanya Tate, Chief Financial Officer Tracie Moos, Eric Baumgartner (LPA) and Matthew Haddox (Joeris General Contractors) — reviewing that the Bond 2025 program had been split into two projects and that the second project would focus on multiple high-school–site items including a new agricultural barn, renovations to the existing Ag building, a CTE addition and Band Hall updates. The motion delegates authority to the superintendent to negotiate, finalize and execute the amended CMAR agreement, with legal counsel to approve the form of the amendment. The motion carried 6–0.
The minutes record the board vote as six in favor, zero against, and zero abstained. The board also discussed bids, vendors and terms related to the metal (steel) portion of the work prior to the vote; specifics about the two finalist vendors other than Joeris are not specified in the minutes.
