The Osseo Area Schools regular school board meeting on October 20, 2026, approved the consent agenda 6–0, including bid awards for renovations at Garden City and Park Brook; the transcript did not provide award amounts or vendors. The board separately approved a one-year renewal of the Ewald legislative lobbying contract at $28,148.99, payable January 1, 2027, replacing a proposed two-year renewal that included a $28,852.72 payment in 2028. Board members cited the contract’s 18-year renewal history and discussed evaluating the firm’s effectiveness, considering other vendors, and potentially establishing an RFP process for future renewals. The amendment passed 6–0, and the finance team is to report on next steps.
