City staff and advisors briefed the Commission on using Reinvestment Housing Incentive District (RHID) financing for new housing, with developers K2M Investments (Peace Estates) and Hood Construction (Nottingham Addition) expressing interest. K2M prefers a pay-as-you-go RHID to fund a permanent road on Kruse Way and future Phase 2 work, while Hood is eyeing a debt-backed model paired with a special assessment district once plats are approved. The City is now seeking feedback from Rice County and USD 376 before drafting RHID resolutions and redevelopment plans, setting up future work for public infrastructure design, construction, and financial/legal advisory services.
Pre-RFP
$3,000,000Jul 20, 2026USD 309 received budget figures from Buckley Roofing to replace nearly all district roofs, excluding areas reroofed with TPO in 2024. The plan covers 307,934 sq ft, with 226,573 sq ft as recover and 81,361 sq ft requiring full tear-off, for a total estimated cost of about $5.38 million. The district goal is to replace all remaining roofs within a 5‑year window, implying about 61,600 sq ft per year and future construction bids or financing decisions. Vendors in roofing, construction management, and capital planning can help shape phasing, specs, and funding strategy before formal solicitations.
Pre-RFP
$5,381,748Jul 20, 2026The Commission approved an ordinance authorizing the electric Generator Project and a Series 2026 GO bond issuance up to $3,000,000 to finance a new 3 MW Caterpillar generator from Foley Power Solutions and its installation. The City already has a Generation Recovery Rider on electric bills to cover 15-year debt service, with the bond sale scheduled for October 5, 2026 and closing October 29, ahead of expected generator delivery in early 2027. With major equipment selected, the remaining work includes installation, protection, relays, and integration at the power plant, along with long-term maintenance and support.
Contract Award
$3,000,000Jul 20, 2026Buckley Roofing proposed an ongoing maintenance and inspection program for South Hutchinson Elementary, Reno Valley Middle, Nickerson High, Nickerson Elementary, and the district office. The concept includes leak repairs on a time-and-material basis, initial inspections with a not-to-exceed $5,000 per building, and an annual maintenance budget of $30,000. This shows the district is formalizing a preventive roof maintenance program, creating room for vendors offering inspections, asset management, and repair services to compete or complement the plan.
Pre-RFP
$55,000Jul 20, 2026Sterling is approving a master services agreement with Caselle to replace its legacy gWorks SimpleCity ERP, which is nearing end of life. The deal covers cloud-hosted financials, HR, payroll, utility billing, court, cemetery, document management, and payment processing, with one-time implementation estimated at $64,540 and annual platform fees of $21,630 starting in 2027. Caselle is now the selected core system, creating follow-on needs for data conversion quality, integrations (e.g., meter reading), training, change management, and possible additional modules later.
Contract Award
$86,170Jul 20, 2026USD 405 approved a $90,804 contract with Zenor for a lighting project at Lyons High School. The scope is not detailed but likely involves replacement or upgrade of existing lighting in school facilities. This confirms Zenor as the incumbent for current electrical/lighting work and indicates active facilities investment, which may lead to future phases or related energy-efficiency projects.
Contract Award
$90,804Jul 7, 2026USD 405 approved purchasing a separate $1 million cyber liability insurance policy for FY27 from Risk Placement Services through Conrade Insurance, with a premium of $13,391.08. This is in addition to EMC’s limited $25,000 cyber coverage under the district’s property and casualty policy. The decision underscores the district’s recognition of cyber risk and opens the door to discussions on cybersecurity controls, incident response planning, and technology upgrades that may be needed to meet insurer requirements.
Contract Award
$13,391Jul 13, 2026Lyons High School’s boys varsity basketball uniforms are on the replacement rotation this season, and after working with vendors the district selected a package from BSN totaling $10,938.48. This confirms BSN as the supplier for this cycle. While the purchase is decided, it signals the district’s uniform replacement schedule and potential future apparel, equipment, and branding needs in other sports.
Contract Award
$10,938Jul 13, 2026The board approved adding the Apptegy Engagement Suite to its list of district-approved communication tools for 2026-27, with an annual fee of $5,752. Apptegy will supplement the existing USD 405 website, Facebook pages, Infinite Campus, Google Classroom, and email for two-way communication. This indicates an investment in centralized digital engagement and may create near-term needs around configuration, content strategy, staff training, and integration with SIS and athletics systems.
