The board needs to request an emergency release of FY25 sales tax funding to order boilers for Brevard Middle School, Pisgah Forest Elementary School, and Rosman Middle/High School. Both boards had approved these projects for Phase 1 funding from the bond sale this fall; however, it has been learned that the lead time to receive the materials could take up to 16 weeks or longer. This could delay completion of the work past the arrival of cold weather and possibly result in unheated classrooms this fall. Proposals from MSS Solutions for the three projects are attached.

A motion would be in order to approve a request for the emergency release of FY25 sales tax funding to begin boiler replacement projects for Brevard Middle School (total estimate $296,539); Pisgah Forest Elementary School (total estimate $190,000); and Rosman Middle/High School (total estimate $90,525). A down payment is all the board would be requesting at this time.
