Governing Board Meeting 8/6/2026

The Phoenix Elementary School District #1 Governing Board held a meeting on August 6, 2026, where several procurement and contracting matters were discussed. Key agenda items included the approval of the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) Phase Two contract with Chase Building Team for the Edison Elementary School renovation project, following a prior GMP Phase One approval. The board also approved fee addendums for architectural services related to the Edison and Garfield Elementary renovation projects, reflecting scope changes while remaining within the overall approved budgets. Additionally, the board authorized the solicitation of a multi-term contract for on-site delivery of intensive behavioral classroom services, allowing the district to issue an RFP for these services. The meeting included a first reading of a policy update to increase the threshold for written price quotations from $10,000 to $15,000 in alignment with state standards, which would streamline smaller purchases. The board also received an informational presentation on the district-run Intensive Therapeutic Intervention (ITI) program supporting students with behavioral challenges. Motions related to procurement were voted on and passed, including the GMP approval and contract solicitation. The meeting reflected ongoing capital improvement efforts and procurement activities to support educational facilities and specialized student services.
