RBUSD Board Meeting 10/20/2026

The Redondo Beach Unified School District Board meeting on October 20, 2026 included several procurement and facilities actions. The board considered an on-site inspection contract with Sandy Pringle and Associates for the Seahawk Bowl concourse improvement project, and approved a 2027 construction-management services agreement extension with Balfour Beatty. It also approved a facilities-use agreement allowing Hospitality Training Academy to use South Bay Adult School’s kitchen from November 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, for hospitality workforce training, and an MOU with Pepperdine University to host counseling interns. The board also approved withdrawing from the Schools Excess Liability Fund and placing its coverage with the district’s other liability coverage through ASIP. No contract amounts were stated. Recorded votes on the later action items passed 5-0; the transcript does not clearly capture the vote on the inspection contract.

The board discussed, but did not decide, whether to place a measure on the March 2027 ballot to extend board-member term limits from two terms to three. The estimated cost was $40,000–$50,000 if added to the city ballot, compared with as much as $300,000 for a separate election. The superintendent was asked to gather input from community and district stakeholders and return with a resolution for further discussion. The board also adopted revisions to technology-use and meeting-conduct policies. Measure S-funded facility improvements, including campus upgrades, were discussed generally, without a new project award in that discussion.
