Board approves $10.9 million athletic-complex project budget

What happened
The Board approved twelve construction bid packages and a revised BG-1 with a total project cost of $10.9 million for the RCHS-ROCK Athletic Performance Complex. The presenter reported a $9,138,189.49 construction total, but the twelve captioned amounts add to $9,188,189.49.
Why it matters to families
The approvals move the baseball, softball, tennis and shared performance-facility project from design and bidding toward construction.
The evidence
The October 15 official meeting recording documents both approvals and says work was expected to begin June 1, 2027. No recommendation letter was collected to resolve the $50,000 difference between the spoken total and the captioned itemization; the recording also does not support a precise completion date.
