At a special meeting Monday afternoon, Carroll School Board rejected all bids for HVAC renovations at the junior-senior high school.

The six bids for the project, commonly referred to as the piping/air conditioning project, were first considered at the last regular board meeting on April 7. After a discussion, consideration of the bids was postponed, and a meeting for that purpose was set for April 13.

Superintendent John Sayers told the Comet Tuesday morning that the bids came in over budget for the estimated $1.97 million project, and that's why they were rejected.

He said the project is being re-advertised with one modification - removal of the room addition for the chiller.

The legal notice, advertising for bidders, is in this week's Comet.

Bids will be opened at 10 a.m. April 29 at the Administration Building.
