  B. Fencing Vote Debbie Deem 5 m
   

As part of our safety requirements, all areas where children play during the day should be fenced. 

To accomplish this, we propose 

  1. adding a fence between the Elementary and Junior High with automated gates;
  2. automating the gates on the south side of the Junior High;
  3. automating the gates on the north side of the Elementary.

We requested bids from the following companies:

  • Ace Fab and Welding
  • Rocky Mountain Fencing 
  • All Fence Supply

We only received a bid from AFW. We have used them before, and we have been happy with their work. 

 

Recommend Board approval of the AFW quote for fencing, items #2, #3, #4. Total: $50,896

The FY27 budget was created considering this expense. 

  
  C. Additional 95% Phonics curricular materials Vote Stephanie Wright 5 m
  D. Soccer Field Repair Vote Debbie Deem 5 m
   

The Soccer Field has been unusable for games, because it is not level. 

It is proposed that we level the soccer field and re-seed it. 

The plan is to do the work this fall, and close off the field until Spring to allow the seed to take root. 

 

Earthworks with Hydroseed: $24,850
