Slaton ISD board selects CMAR for new elementary school construction
Summary
CFO Art Martin recommended and the board approved the Construction Manager At-risk (CMAR) procurement method for the new Slaton ISD elementary school, with the board noting a preference to keep construction local when possible.
Slaton ISD's administration recommended the Construction Manager At-risk (CMAR) procurement method for the district's new elementary school and the board approved the recommendation unanimously on June 23. Chief Financial Officer Art Martin reviewed both Competitive Sealed Proposal (CSP) and CMAR methods and told the board that "the CMAR method of construction provides the best opportunity for constructing a high quality building at a fair price." The board accepted administration's recommendation to approve CMAR (motion carried 6-0).
Board member Kara Newcomb said her preference in the process is to stay "local" as the construction process proceeds. The board's approval authorizes administration to proceed using CMAR as the procurement method; additional decisions about selection criteria and bidders were not specified in the minutes and will follow later in the procurement process.
