High School Expansion- FF & E Bids

Jerry Stephens and Jill Herink presented the bids for FF & E for the High School expansion project. Jerry Stephens went through each of the eight bid packages with the council. All bid package purchases will be by purchase order. There will be more bid packages forthcoming to include; software, science equipment, library, copiers, kitchen and the shops. Discussion on BIPS and School Specialties quotes for furniture. Discussion on sending out the bid process for other suppliers or to get even lower prices from those that have bid already. Larry Lasley and Lucas Smith both referred to the Property and Procurement Policy. Lucas Smith stated that copies of the policy have been provided to Jerry Stephens. Wayne Pushetonequa requested a room by room list equipment needed for the Tribal Council to look over.
Motion made by Frank Black Cloud to approve the following FF & E high school bid packages; #2AV Equipment, #3 Server and Network, #4 Computers, and #7 B&G/Cust/ Trans/Maint. Which includes the walk off mats, for a total of $575,895.18. Second by Keith Davenport. Vote:5 yes, 0 no. Motion carried.

It’s a shame. The students that attend the high school should be getting the equivalent of a private school education. Unfortunately, they are getting just the opposite. A poor standard of education in a fancy new building.
