Hays plans to seek proposals for Rockwell Administration Center
What happened
Hays plans to issue a request for proposals to sell the Rockwell Administration Center, advancing the previously announced closure toward a potential sale. Proposals are due Nov. 11, with the board expected to review them Nov. 16.
Why it matters to families
The proposals must describe the buyer’s intended use and redevelopment timeline, and the district would seek to lease the warehouse and shop back for one year, with a possible six-month-to-one-year extension, to allow time for a transition.
The evidence
At the Oct. 19 meeting, district administrators said the RFP would be released the next day and set a Nov. 11 proposal deadline and Nov. 16 board review. They described the warehouse/shop leaseback terms. The discussion indicates a planned administrative next step; the transcript does not show a separate board vote approving the RFP.
