Description
The Township of Union Board of Education approved a series of professional‑services contracts for the 2026‑2027 school year, awarding 26 vendors to provide a wide range of services including mental‑health counseling, special‑education evaluations, legal counsel, architectural and engineering design, insurance brokerage, food service, and event entertainment. Each award is capped at a “not‑to‑exceed” dollar amount or rate, reflecting a firm‑fixed‑price structure. The district exercised its authority under N.J.S.A. 18A:18A‑5a(1) to award these contracts without competitive bidding, and all resolutions are available for public inspection.
• 26 vendors received individual contracts covering health, legal, design, insurance, food, and event services.
• Total maximum spend across all line items is approximately $2.0 million.
• Awards are for the 2026‑2027 fiscal year; no explicit end dates or renewal provisions are stated.
