Board to consider $36.1 million Hazel Grove Elementary construction contract

What happened
The board is scheduled to consider a $36,118,700 construction-manager contract for the Hazel Grove Elementary School project. The bid is about $2.17 million under the project’s $38,290,153 construction budget, with construction planned to start next month and finish in May 2028.
Why it matters to families
This is a major, multiyear school construction project funded through the 2025 bond program; the contract would commit a substantial portion of the project budget and set its construction schedule.
The evidence
Regular Board Meeting agenda, item 8.02: identifies Hausmann’s low bid of $36,118,700, project construction budget of $38,290,153, and projected construction start next month and completion in May 2028. It is listed as an item for board decision, not an approved outcome.
