Port Neches‑Groves ISD adopts prevailing wage rates for district construction projects
Summary
The PNGISD Board adopted prevailing wage rates required under Texas Government Code Chapter 2258 for use on district public works and construction projects tied to the 2025 bond; the board relied on a PBK Architects survey and voted 7-0.
At its Dec. 9, 2025 special meeting the Port Neches‑Groves ISD Board of Trustees adopted prevailing wage rates for district public works and construction projects, citing Texas Government Code Chapter 2258 and a PBK Architects survey attached as Exhibit A.
The resolution notes that Chapter 2258 requires school districts to adopt prevailing wage rates and that PBK Architects conducted a local survey of rates. The minutes include an attached wage table (Texas Gulf Coast area, June 2, 2025) listing classifications and hourly rates, for example Electrician $29.86, Plumber $27.98 and Sheet Metal Worker $29.96. The resolution passed unanimously (7-0) after a motion by Trustee Brandon Cropper and a second by Trustee Brenda Duhon.
The adopted resolution directs the district to use the Exhibit A prevailing rates on PNGISD facilities projects and references statutory requirements for contractor payment and penalties under Chapter 2258. The minutes do not record any exceptions or withholdings; the board recorded the resolution as effective immediately.
