School project tour

Van Wert City Board of Education members toured the new grades 1-5 elementary school building now under construction following a special board meeting Thursday evening. Shown are (from the left) Project Manager Larry Geren, VWCS Treasurer Mike Ruen and VWCS Maintenance Supervisor Randy Stemen. During the special meeting, the board awarded several bids for the Jefferson Elementary renovation project, but decided to rebid the plumbing portion of the project because bids were too high. Bids awarded include the general trades package to Alexander & Bebout, $1,578,450; fire protection, Shambaugh & Son, $73,865; HVAC, Vaughn Industries, $934,600; and electrical/technology cabling, Koester Electric, $730,000.
