Summary
Trustees approved a $998,750 contract with Echo Company to replace the rooftop heating and cooling unit at Jones Van Every School (JVES), with a 5% maximum change-order authorization; the vote was 7-0.
The Douglas County School District Board of Trustees voted to award a contract to Echo Company to replace the rooftop heating and cooling unit at JVES for a total contract amount amended to $998,750, with a 5% maximum change-order authorization. The motion, made by Trustee Susan Jansen and seconded by Trustee Markus Zinke, passed unanimously, 7-0.
Phil Demus, Director of Facilities, and Scott McCullough, Douglas Project Manager, presented the bid and explained that the original invitation included multiple campuses; the Board discussed removing CCMES from the package to limit scope. Superintendent Frankie Alvarado recommended proceeding with JVES only; trustees discussed feasibility and timelines for adding other sites and noted that adding a site could delay projects by six to nine months. The Board recorded the motion to proceed with JVES through Echo Company and to allow a 5% contingency for change orders.
