La Vega ISD board unanimously approves bids for press box, concessions and stadium updates

The La Vega Independent School District Board of Trustees voted unanimously to approve bids for a new press box, a concession stand and other stadium updates at a special called meeting Oct. 17, 2025. According to the minutes, "Motioned by Mr. Randy Devorsky and seconded by Rev. Larry Carpenter, the board unanimously voted in favor of the motion: Rev. Larry Carpenter, Randy Devorsky, Henry C. Jennings, Myron Ridge, and Brenda Rocha."

Board President Myron Ridge established a quorum and called the meeting to order at 12:00 p.m. The minutes list school personnel present, including Chief Kerry Blakemore, Betty Bentura, Todd Gooden, Jamie Shaver and Dr. Sharon M. Shields, and note that Ed Mazanec and an employee identified as Aaron attended from Mazanec Constructions. The motion to approve the bids was made by Mr. Randy Devorsky and seconded by Rev. Larry Carpenter; the recorded vote lists five members voting yes (Carpenter, Devorsky, Jennings, Ridge and Rocha) and the motion carried.

The meeting record does not specify contract amounts, contractors awarded to each discrete package, project timelines, or funding sources in the minutes text. The signature block at the end of the minutes shows a board approval date of 11/18/25 and the adjournment line lists the meeting as adjourning at 12:06 p.m. on October 21, 2025; those date entries appear inconsistent with the Oct. 17 meeting header and are noted in the minutes as written. The minutes also record there were no public comments at the meeting. The district did not include additional contract details or dollar figures in the published minutes.
