District news
Hopkins project added a $1.56 million road job and $283,189 in furniture
What happened
The committee revised the campus Loop Road work to $1,564,149, including a $130,000 allowance for unforeseen conditions, and authorized $283,188.61 for additional Hopkins furniture from project savings and contingency.
Why it matters to families
The votes direct nearly $1.85 million of project capacity to the campus roadway and classroom furnishings while leaving less contingency for later construction issues.
The evidence
The April 30 approved minutes describe the bids, bridge and drainage uncertainty, available contingency, and two 4-0 votes for the road and furniture transfers.
