Auxiliary gym reopens; board reviews roof, sewer and capital planning work
Summary
The buildings and grounds committee reported completion of the auxiliary gym reopening, new athletic banners and annual fire inspections; members are assessing options and grant funding for a planned high school roof project and completed sewer work at the intermediate school.
The Ocean City Board of Education’s buildings and grounds committee reported progress on multiple facility projects and flagged capital planning work for board attention.
Committee chair Mister Allegretto said the auxiliary gym is back in operation and new athletic banners have been installed in the main gym. The committee completed annual fire inspections in January and February and noted completion of a sewer-line project at the intermediate school over spring break.
Allegretto said the district is investigating options for a high school roof project and is reviewing potential grant funding; the committee expects to report a recommendation to the full board after further review. He added the district is preparing a 2026 capital budget and collecting input from principals and staff for upcoming needs.
The committee also noted work to replace aging copper phone lines at the high school and said the district is reviewing shared facility use and parking arrangements as part of broader facilities planning.
No final capital decisions were made during the meeting; the committee’s next steps include refined cost estimates and a capital-budget proposal for board consideration.
