June
The project is currently proceeding through the bidding phase. Following review of the original bid process and consultation with District legal counsel, the District determined that additional clarification regarding project phasing and sequencing should be incorporated into the bid documents to provide clearer direction to bidders. As a result, a request to cancel the bids was submitted to the Board of Trustees for consideration on May 26.
The revised bid documents were issued to the pre-qualified bidders on May 29. An optional site walk took place on June 2. Bids from the three prequalified firms are expected to be received on June 16. Following the review and final determination, the construction management team will present a Board Agenda Item to the Board of Trustees at the July meeting, to recommend the selected prequalified general contractor. The project is anticipated to issue a Notice to Proceed with construction to the firm in mid-August 2026.
