Board approves $110,764.96 contract to upgrade high-school access control
Summary
Trustees approved a $110,764.96 phased upgrade to card‑reader access control at Mountain House High School as part of a multi‑phase security modernization; staff said phased replacement avoids the higher cost of a full system swap at once.
The board approved a $110,764.96 contract with Edgeworth Security to install upgraded card‑reader access control as phase 2 of a multi‑phase effort at Mountain House High School. Staff said the initial rollout proved the concept and that phased purchases allow the district to replace failing or monopolized systems without the expense of a single large replacement.
During discussion staff described longevity issues with earlier card‑reader hardware and said the new model provides broader vendor support and better long‑term maintenance. The motion to approve the contract passed with 5 ayes and no nos. "This model is better than replacing them all at 1 time, which, was very, very expensive," a staff member said during the staff report.
