Pre-RFPInfrastructure & MaintenanceDetected Jun 17, 2026

The June 17, 2026 board agenda lists Building and Grounds items including a floor scrubber, gym floor, and the Rochelle Vault (septic) under Old Business. This indicates the district is actively discussing facility and equipment needs related to cleaning equipment, athletic flooring maintenance or refinishing, and septic system work, but no specific vendor, scope, or award is documented in this agenda. For vendors, this suggests upcoming or ongoing needs for custodial equipment, flooring services, and wastewater/septic maintenance or repair.A practical next step would be to engage facilities leadership to understand whether they are planning to purchase a new floor scrubber, schedule gym floor refinishing or replacement, and scope septic system upgrades or service contracts for the Rochelle Vault site.

Items are listed under Old Business, implying prior discussion and that decisions or procurements may be forthcoming but are not described here.
