Board considers amended change order for baseball concessions, including ADA sidewalks and bleacher pads

The board reviewed an amended change order for the baseball concessions project that removes an in-ground grease interceptor after conversations with the sanitary district. Presenter said the variance paperwork has been started and that the board should consider only two items for approval tonight: ADA sidewalk extensions and JV-field sidewalks and bleacher pads.

Presenter described the ADA sidewalk extension along the third-base line at a cost of $40,328 and a JV-field package of sidewalks, two bleacher pads and a dumpster pad that together were quoted at $117,187. Funding would come from the construction contingency on the project and a $50,000 FY '27 school maintenance grant. Presenter stated the project contingency currently stands at $160,000; with the $50,000 grant applied, staff estimated the net request against contingency at approximately $107,515 (transcript discussion later noted roughly $101,000 as a working estimate). A board member raised concerns about contractor Valley's staging on turf and asked staff to address reseeding and respectful staging.

A motion and second to consider the change order were recorded; the transcript captures motion and second (Jake moved, Jamie seconded) and extensive discussion of scope and funding, but the provided record does not include a formal, named final vote on the amended change order.
