The LCPS Board approves Rich Harrison to provide limited notice to proceed for Phase 2 of the TK Renovation Project for Lighthouse scheduled for summer 2026 per the attached letter drafted by YMC legal on LCPS' behalf. 

 

Fiscal Impact: None directly. Please note that the limited notice explicitly requires seeking additional non-limited notice to proceed before work or billing for any materials or work can commence. The already approved contract with Bjork for Phase 1 and Phase 2 listed Phase 2 as an add-alt to the contract and the Board will have the opportunity once funding sources have been obtained to greenlight Phase 2 and commit the funds as laid out in the contract.
