Bryan ISD school board members spend money from the 2020 bond issue to replace doorknobs with door levers at four elementary schools.
BISD’s construction services director Bobby Griffin told board members during their October 6th meeting that they received three bids after approaching 180 potential vendors.
The $156,000 dollar purchase of door levers was to comply with the American With Disabilities Act.
Griffin said the cost was more than $14,000 dollars under the projected budget.
That item took most of the six minutes that the BISD board met in public before spending 90 minutes in executive session discussing undisclosed legal, personnel, and student matters. No action was taken following the executive session.
