EMMAUS, Pa. \u2013 The East Penn School Board approved the administration’s June bill list Monday, including nearly $1 million in payments for ongoing facilities improvements across the district.<\/p>\n
Among the approved payments were two June invoices totaling about $750,000 to Harrisburg-based McClure Company for HVAC replacement work at Jefferson Elementary School, according to board documents.<\/p>\n
The work is part of a broader district effort to modernize school facilities. In 2023, the board approved a more than $4.4 million performance-based energy savings agreement with McClure Company to improve building efficiency and reduce long-term operating costs.<\/p>\n
Then, work began at Macungie Elementary School, where upgrades included HVAC systems, LED lighting, ceilings, classroom technology, public address and clock systems, security improvements, whiteboards, gymnasium renovations and partition wall improvements.<\/p>\n
The board also approved more than $150,000 in June invoices to Johnson Controls Building Solutions LLC for additional district building projects.<\/p>\n
The payments were included in the administration’s monthly bill list approved unanimously by the board.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EMMAUS, Pa. \u2013 The East Penn School Board approved the administration’s June bill list Monday, including nearly $1…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":134174,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[119,121,120,104075,104070,104074,104071,104072,104076,104078,104073,104077,104079],"class_list":["post-242741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-allentown","tag-allentown","tag-allentown-headlines","tag-allentown-news","tag-building-efficiency","tag-east-penn-school-board","tag-energy-savings-agreement","tag-facilities-improvements","tag-hvac-replacement","tag-johnson-controls-building-solutions","tag-led-lighting","tag-mcclure-company","tag-school-modernization","tag-security-improvements"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/242741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=242741"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/242741\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/134174"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=242741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=242741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=242741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
