April 29, 2021 at 7:00 AM - Special Board Meeting April 29, 2021

Rationale:  It is 7:00 AM and I now call to order the Crete Public Schools Board of Education April 28, 2021 Special Meeting. The purpose of this meeting is to approve two bids for items needed for construction occurring at 930 Main Ave. Notice of this meeting has been properly advertised and posted.

We want those in attendance to know that copies of the Open Meetings Act are available at the entrance to the Board Room.  If anyone in attendance is interested in addressing our Board, you are welcome to do so.  We simply request that you complete the appropriate form and turn it into us now so that you may be recognized during the Public Forum part of our meeting.  These forms are also located by the entry doors of this room.

Ms. Banos will you please call the roll.

Rationale:  The mission of Crete Public Schools, a diverse community of engaged individuals committed to the success of all, is to ensure learners have the character, knowledge, and skills to be respectful and productive members of a global society.  Crete Public Schools will cultivate a culture where all are challenged, empowered, and supported to reach their maximum potential.

Rationale: 

1. Each individual addressing the Board will be allowed 5 minutes. The Board of Education has the prerogative to limit speaking to 3 minutes when there are three or more patrons to allow all speakers an opportunity to address the Board in a timely manner.
2. We will not engage in dialogue with patrons presenting to the Board.
3. The Board president and superintendent will identify staff to follow-up on the information requested from patrons.
4. The Board president may share a statement on behalf of the Board when addressing a major issue in the district.

Rationale:  Due to an existing condition, the Ironhide contract will change as follows:

Remove all remaining (approx. 13,000 sf) paving, over-excavate to a depth of three feet, import new suitable fill material, replace paving with new 7" paving and approx. 150 lf of curb and gutter. See highlighted areas on the attached. Includes credit back for allowance to remove and replace 300 sy paving.

Pricing does not include potential dehumidification or temporary conditioning of interior required to install finish materials due to sequencing impacts on installation of mechanical enclosure.

Rationale:  This proposal is for the Office Furnishings for the Crete Public Schools Welcome Center. An itemized list has been provided.
