The Putnam Valley Central School District has released two separate trade contracts — one for electrical construction, one for rooftop photovoltaic construction — tied to geothermal upgrades, a new nurse suite at the elementary school, and alterations at the high school.
The electrical and solar PV work covers Putnam Valley Elementary School on Oscawana Lake Road and Putnam Valley High School on Peekskill Hollow Road, both in Putnam County. The posting does not list a solicitation number.
Bids open at 11 a.m. on October 27 at the district office. A pre-bid site meeting is set for October 13 at 10:30 a.m. at the elementary school. Bidders need a 5% bid bond or certified check, and the winning contractors must post performance and payment bonds. No estimated value is listed.
Every contractor and subcontractor on the job must take part in a state-approved apprenticeship program, and prevailing wage applies to the work.
Splitting the geothermal and solar scope into two separate trade contracts means electrical and PV installers can bid their piece directly rather than chasing a general contractor, so specialty subs should treat this as two distinct opportunities rather than one bundled job.
Contractors should attend the October 13 pre-bid meeting at the elementary school and have bonding in place ahead of the October 27, 11 a.m. bid opening.
On the record: Geothermal Upgrades + Nurse Suite (Elementary School) and Alterations at Putnam Valley High School — Electrical and Rooftop Photovoltaic Contracts, issued by Putnam Valley Central School District. Bids are due October 27, 2026 (Bids open 11 a.m. at the district office. Pre-bid site meeting Oct. 13 at 10:30 a.m. at the elementary school.).
