North Judson-San Pierre School Board members awarded several contracts for the corporation’s Lease Project when they met Tuesday evening.
Superintendent Dr. Annette Zupin explained that when bids were opened in January, they discovered that they came in under budget. This will allow the corporation to move forward with some of their alternate bids which included upgrades to the baseball and softball fields, stairwell renovations, roofing and lighting work.
Zupin added that they will also be able to have signage installed on route 10 to inform motorists they’re on the NJSP campus. She said it will be an electronic sign where they will be able to put various school information and community announcements.
NJSP Maintenance Director Wilbur Collins presented a list of contractors for the various work that will be done with this Lease Project.
Town & Country Paving submitted the lowest bid for the tennis courts in the amount of $296,996. Collins added they’re teaming up with Leslie Coatings Inc, an Indianapolis-based company that is recognized as one of the biggest tennis court builders in the area.
Korellis Roofing, Inc submitted a base bid of $568,633 and Wilbur also included their alternate bid of $142,870 for a total roof replacement bid of $711,503.
For general construction, Millwood Roofing and Construction submitted a base bid of $718,000 and Wilbur mentioned their alternate bid for stairway panels which was $15,000. Their total bid for general construction came in at $733,000.
D.A. Dodd, LLC submitted a bid of $203,920 for plumbing. Collins added that D.A. Dodd has worked with the school in the past. Continental Electric Company, Inc submitted a bid of $139,400 for the electrical contract.
H&G Services submitted a bid of $1,464,000 for mechanical work. Collins said that work will include the air handlers, the temperature controls and the dehumidification system for the pool. H&G Services also submitted a bid of $102,650 for the technology contract.
The lighting contract was divided up because there are several spots on the schools’ campus that will be getting new lighting. The company EMCOR Hyre Electric submitted a base bid of $467,000, an alternate bid of $51,000 for house lights, another alternate bid of $25,850 for tennis court lights and a third alternate bid of $24,000 for atrium lights for a total lighting bid of $567,850.
The contractors recommended by Collins received unanimous board approval. Fanning Howey Construction Administrator Edward Sawa added that the next step is to issue the notice to proceed and get the contracts to the companies.
He mentioned that sometime over the next few weeks, they will need to hold a pre-construction meeting with the contractors to lay out schedules and discuss responsibilities.
