Board ratifies demolition contract for Ford Park Adult School despite one abstention
Summary
The Board ratified a contract with Danny Ryan Precision Contracting, Inc. for demolition of portable classrooms at Ford Park Adult School; the motion passed with one abstention (Board Member Marisol Uribe). The staff report listed multiple bidders and included a stated owner contingency.
The Board of Education ratified a professional services agreement with Danny Ryan Precision Contracting, Inc. for demolition of portable classrooms at Ford Park Adult School (Project #251016) on Feb. 4, 2026.
President Liliana Magana moved the action, seconded by Vice President Jennifer Gutierrez; the recorded roll call was Magana Aye, Gutierrez Aye, Elizabeth Cabrera Aye, Marisol Madrigal Uribe Abstain, and Carlos Cerdan Aye, and President Magana declared the motion carried. The staff summary of bids notes multiple bids were received and lists Danny Ryan among other bidders.
The motion text in the agenda packet states: "That the Board of Education ratifies the agreement with Danny Ryan Precision Contracting, Inc. for the portable classroom demolition at Ford Park Adult School/Project #251016 for the period of January 20, 2026, through June 30, 2026, or upon 100% completion of the project." The packet lists "the proposed amount for this project is $384,000.00, Montebello Unified School District is adding $25,000.00 owner's contingency, the total not to exceed amount for this project is $384,000.00." The document contains an internal inconsistency between the listed owner's contingency and the stated "total not to exceed" figure; the Board record in open session did not amend those numbers.
Board Member Uribe had previously indicated questions about the agreement and had withdrawn the item for separate discussion before the vote.
