Treasurer's report: A staff member reported that, as of Feb. 28, 2025, the district had about $172,200,000 in cash on hand and that operating revenues and expenditures were pacing similarly to the prior year. Short‑term interest rates were reported to have ticked slightly down.

Disposal and donations: Administration presented an April disposal report listing obsolete IT equipment, library and guided‑reading books, obsolete furniture and a Dundee Crown front sign replacement. The donations report listed two monetary donations: one from an anonymous community member to Dundee Crown High School (amount not publicly disclosed) and a donation from the First Congregational Church of Dundee \"in the amount of $16.00 $1\" in the agenda; administration recommended approving the donations as presented. The presenter said the community donor preferred not to have the amount publicly announced.

Contract and project recommendations:
- ATI athletic training contract: Administration recommended exercising a two‑year extension with ATI Physical Therapy Sports Medicine for athletic training services. The proposed two‑year contract amount cited was $530,000 to be paid from the Educational Fund 10.
- Jacobs High School RTU (rooftop units) replacement: Staff recommended proceeding with a design and engineering task order for Alara Engineering for the proactive replacement of three rooftop units at Jacobs High School field house/gym area. Staff gave a total project estimate of $1,900,000 and requested approval of a design fee of $171,000 (approximately 9% of the estimated project cost) for the schematic/design phase; work was slated for summer 2026.
- Door hardware standardization: Staff described a districtwide effort to standardize classroom and facility door hardware for uniformity and safety; a public bid is out and the recommendation is to bring a contract back for approval on April 22. Board members requested limiting master keys and issuing keys specific to needed spaces.
- Technology renewals: Staff presented renewals for multiple technology services, including Ivanti (patch/PC management) at $66,769.36, cybersecurity monitoring (Albert) at $90,000, PowerSchool LMS/Schoology at about $165,435, the PowerSchool Student Information System renewal identified at $449,636.94 (with portions allocated across technology and school improvement budgets), Remind at $61,585.06 and Kronos renewal/upgrade at $55,442. Staff indicated these renewals are standard and recommended proceeding; presenters said no major vendor issues had been reported.

Change orders and construction updates: Staff reported two small change orders totaling $17,927 for Dundee Crown and Jacobs auditorium work (concrete removal, drywall patching, sound panels, handrail/fall protection and flooring corrections) to be funded from the capital improvement fund; no additional approvals were required at the committee level. Construction work and pre‑work for intercom wiring were reported on schedule for the upcoming summer projects.

Committee members asked clarifying questions on classroom counts, key control for door hardware, vendor performance and timing for RTU replacement; presenters provided clarifications and said follow‑up items would return to the Board as contracts or task orders for formal approval. No formal committee votes were recorded on these items during the April 8 meeting.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","April 8, 2025 - Board of Education - Board of Operations Committee Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","The Board Operations Committee on April 8 reviewed routine operations items including the district disposal report, treasury status, donations and several contract and maintenance recommendations including an athletic training extension, Jacobs High RTU replacement design, door hardware procurement and multiple technology renewals.","taxTitle","CUSD 300, School Boards, Illinois","taxId",13066,"location","Illinois","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6074402,"CUSD 300 Master Facilities Plan update advances; Parkview schematic design recommended at $1,000,510",0,1698450,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2984771-ed3430e36f0fdced563c64dc60a2c9af&start=1698&end=1698","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2984771-ed3430e36f0fdced563c64dc60a2c9af/thumbnail_1698450.jpg","/articles/6074402/Illinois/CUSD-300-Master-Facilities-Plan-update-advances-Parkview-schematic-design-recommended-at-1000510","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6074402-966f69f14d713d0dc372d8738937d779/orig.mp4?Expires=1771187890&Signature=iH9NV5laAEIF~lZISuwP-feX6vA3~QC-aQj8M1oSlzcG7-vMBh5sqpCh3U~ZHRuDsni7z3HSwfHoRs7Nh94M2ArvkbFeqq56jlC2OD94xU8k-6m5aKaAXNB--bcnvjia4pq8GU11Zh9CCAotm3I1P2FG0xrb8RswSUwlNF58A5K8JroJ74sivxxkvRlbWId3FayhLJCWUC3j--rE7NzftIn4IQt20E84R5K3d8og6h64ssEi-b6raXgc-JNi~Fd1UA3VAWfw6TbHMlGgwo6jpefNeA58QqRyRnn35vVJg-uy36A8Q0ZyIMnnksiJy9Njub6dOSzya5Q6zL3ohPIKlg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Leggett Architects presented an update on CUSD 300's Master Facilities Plan at the April 8 Board Operations Committee meeting and administration recommended approval of the schematic design phase for Parkview Elementary, with Dewberry Architects proposed to perform schematic design at a fee of $1,000,510 funded from Capital Improvement Fund 60.

Robin Randall of Leggett Architects said the master plan is driven by learning needs and community input. Randall said the engagement effort included nearly 8,000 students and more than 1,500 staff responses and emphasized priorities such as larger classrooms, easier navigation, more collaborative spaces and expanded college‑and‑career opportunities.

The Parkview schematic design scope presented includes civil, landscape, structural, architectural, electrical, mechanical, fire protection, plumbing and technology design to support an approximately 16,200 square foot addition on the south side that will connect north and south corridors, plus a roughly 300 square foot storage addition at the gym and interior upgrades including fire protection and HVAC.

Administration recommended the Dewberry schematic design task order for Parkview at a fee of $1,000,510. The staff member presenting the construction items said the fee will be paid from Capital Improvement Fund 60.

Board members asked about the timing and funding across 2025–2027. One trustee asked whether work on Parkview would begin this year; staff confirmed that parts of the Parkview work are in the 2025 line items and that $6,000,000 of the $18,000,000 figure for 2025 relates to that work. Trustees also discussed a multi‑year playground replacement schedule. A board member questioned why several playgrounds were listed with identical budget line numbers (336) and was told the district used a consistent baseline design so students across schools receive similar experiences; staff said playground size and site work are evaluated at each location and vendor New Toys designs the equipment to fit site needs.

Randall described next steps as continuing the phased approach (good/better/best) and aligning projects with the district's strategic goals, including the priority of developing the whole child. Committee members voiced general support for moving the Parkview schematic design forward; no formal committee vote was recorded at the April 8 meeting.","Leggett Architects summarized the district's Master Facilities Plan and administration recommended approval of the Parkview Elementary schematic design phase with Dewberry at a fee of $1,000,510.

A facilities staff member summarized the plan: the roadway will include curbs and a sidewalk on the district side to provide a walking connection from the school to the park district property, and the township will provide guardrail at the apex near the track and a speed table near the same location. The staff member said the speed table is wider than a standard speed bump — about 8 feet wide — and that the township also plans a 2‑ to 3‑foot natural berm on district property to support guardrail installation.

Board members pressed for those commitments to be explicitly included in the IGA. One board member said, \"I'd like it specifically stated, I think, would make me more comfortable with that,\" and another asked whether the addendum could be available by email before voting.

Cost and scope details were discussed: a district estimate for a fence along the property line was cited as about $28,000 (roughly 300 linear feet at about $95 per linear foot), and guardrail runs were described as either a single continuous 40‑foot section or two 20‑foot sections. The staff member said the township will put agreed‑upon elements in writing and that the IGAs are prepared by lawyers for both parties.

Committee members agreed to delay the committee's vote on the IGA and moved the item to the April 22 board meeting to allow the written commitments to be incorporated and circulated. A board member said the preference was to \"get it all in writing now\" and the group concurred that final language should be included before formal approval.

No formal IGA vote occurred at the April 8 committee meeting; members requested the updated IGA language and legal review prior to the next vote.","Committee members discussed an intergovernmental agreement for Recreation Drive (road between Dundee Middle School and the park district).

A staff member said the project is intended to expand the commons and kitchen, modernize kitchen facilities, repurpose the existing cafeteria into classroom and Career and Technical Education (CTE) space and move current CTE programs to newly designed areas. \"There will be six classrooms out of there along with a hallway which will help with congestion,\" the staff member said when asked about classroom counts.

The recommendation follows a master facilities process and community input, the staff member said, and administration proposed funding the architectural and engineering services from Capital Improvement Fund 60.

Public commenter Mike Tennis, who identified himself as from Sleepy Hollow, questioned the project scope and cost. \"The request assumes a $49,000,000 cost for 79,000 square feet of changes or $618 per square foot,\" Tennis said, and he asked whether investing in a portion of the 60‑year‑old building would meaningfully extend its life. He also asked how the project would affect student capacity (he cited a current capacity of about 2,500 students), how recent roof work would be impacted by cutting into two sides of the building, and whether relocating the CTE Education Center to a more central district location had been considered as a lower‑cost, less disruptive alternative.

The staff member responded that the cafeteria will be repurposed into six classrooms and that the current CTE spaces will be reconfigured and relocated within the building so those specialized programs can be designed \"the way they need to be.\" The presenter said the work is not intended to reduce district access to existing programs across the three high schools.

Administration gave the design fee cap as $4,000,000, noting the final design fee will be calculated as a percentage of the final project cost once the scope is finalized. The presentation referenced an overall project budget of $48,850,000 and described the work as an outcome of long‑term planning to address immediate and future facility needs.

Committee members asked for specifics about classroom counts and the plan for CTE; the staff member provided the six‑classroom figure and said CTE would be relocated within the facility. No formal committee vote was recorded at the meeting; administration's recommendation was noted and will be considered by the Board of Education at a later, formal meeting.

The discussion included concerns from the public about construction disruption, future enrollment uncertainty and administrative staffing levels, which were raised during public participation and entered into the committee record.","The Board Operations Committee on April 8 reviewed plans to expand and renovate Dundee Crown High School.
