Lance Aaron (center, in blue) of Gallagher Construction Services opens sealed bids for a public reading on Thursday afternoon at Athens ISD’s District Support Center. Gallagher is the construction manager agent for the projects on tap at Athens ISD funded by the $59.9 million bond package passed in November 2015. The bids are for trade packages comprising the grand total of projects to be completed (minus Bruce Field, which is already under way) in roughly the next year and a half at AISD, including classrooms, cafeteria and gymnasium at Athens High School, library at Central Athens Elementary, and activity centers at Bel Air and South Athens elementaries. Bids will be evaluated by Gallagher Construction, which will then confer with Athens ISD leadership. Bids will be awarded by AISD trustees at the Dec. 15 board meeting. (Toni Garrard Clay/AISD)
