6. Approve the Government issued Davis Bacon Wage Scale as issued for Shackleford County. Description: (this wage scale can be modified if the board chooses to do so, the one I will have provided is the "Texas State by county" recommended wage scale, they supposedly frequently survey companies and owners in the general area and designate these wages as the "normal" prevailing wage... some areas do not agree that this is the way to do things, regardless, one has to be approved.  If you want to modify it you have to do surveys and determine what is the "average" for the trade in the county, and have it certified.  All in all, it is a major endeavor and pain... so most all schools just go by Davis Bacon. This is a TEA mandated issue)
