The Los Banos Unified School District Board meeting on November 12, 2026, included several facilities and procurement actions. The board approved a contract with Cobble Flores Winners (CFW) for facilities implementation planning; the presenter said fees would be tied to projects the district later selects, and no total contract amount was stated. Trustees also approved a legal services agreement with Griffith and Thornberg LLP and authorized a $62,000 purchase of an F-250 utility truck from Santos Ford. For the Los Banos High School modernization, the board approved time-and-materials work not to exceed $30,000 for gym roof flashing and repairs and $5,000 to replace a cracked roof drain, plus a $42,936 change order to DD Construction for seven corroded walkway pipe columns. The board also approved an agreement for Henry Miller Elementary to participate in a community engagement initiative, with grant funding of up to $70,000 for each of two school years, contingent on completing required activities.

Facilities staff reported that bids for the Lofton Stadium Phase 3 lighting and sound project are scheduled to open November 19, with an award expected to come before the board in December. A Grassland shade structure purchase and a request to bid its site work are also planned for December. Trustees approved a resolution authorizing an application to the Career Technical Education Facilities Program for Los Banos High School, but no grant award was made at this meeting. A facilities consultant presented preliminary analysis estimating $107 million in potential state aid and discussed sequencing, procurement methods, and planning to leverage local funds; the board approved the implementation-services contract. The superintendent also noted community support for Measure C and the upcoming bond oversight committee application process.
