Board awards $188,219 contract for Leavenworth High track repairs
Summary
USD 453 approved a DCS services proposal to restore Leavenworth High School’s track: base $177,577 plus alternate $10,642 to recaulk expansion joints; motion passed 7-0.
The USD 453 Board of Education approved a contract Aug. 10 for restoration and repairs of the Leavenworth High School track.
A representative outlined the scope and cost: "The base amount for the scope of the work is a $177,577," and the board considered Alternate 1 — removing and recaulking the concrete expansion joint around the perimeter — for $10,642, supporting a total recommended amount of $188,219. Board member Mister Darling moved to approve the recommended bid and alternate; Miss Murphy seconded and the motion passed 7-0.
Why it matters: the project addresses facility maintenance and safety needs for athletic programs. The board noted the track scope is separate from turf/artificial‑field work and emphasized the need to keep capital projects aligned with the building needs assessment.
Next steps: staff will proceed with contracting and implementation under the approved amount.
