B. Fencing Vote Debbie Deem 5 m
As part of our safety requirements, all areas where children play during the day should be fenced.
To accomplish this, we propose
adding a fence between the Elementary and Junior High with automated gates;
automating the gates on the south side of the Junior High;
automating the gates on the north side of the Elementary.
We requested bids from the following companies:
Ace Fab and Welding
Rocky Mountain Fencing
All Fence Supply
We only received a bid from AFW. We have used them before, and we have been happy with their work.
Recommend Board approval of the AFW quote for fencing, items #2, #3, #4. Total: $50,896
The FY27 budget was created considering this expense.

D. Soccer Field Repair Vote Debbie Deem 5 m
The Soccer Field has been unusable for games, because it is not level.
It is proposed that we level the soccer field and re-seed it.
The plan is to do the work this fall, and close off the field until Spring to allow the seed to take root.
Earthworks with Hydroseed: $24,850
