Camdenton R‑III outlines multiple facilities upgrades, schedules fire‑alarm replacement
Summary
District staff described recent and planned facilities work including classroom floor replacement after water damage, HVAC demolition and replacement on the middle‑school lower floor, playground surfacing, pavement and site work, and a phased replacement of the middle‑school fire‑alarm system expected to be completed by Friday.
Facilities staff reviewed several completed and planned projects across the Camdenton R‑III district, including repairs after a hot‑water piping leak that required replacement of one classroom floor.
The presentation described demolition and removal work tied to the lower‑floor middle‑school HVAC system and noted that contractors had removed old piping to prepare for replacement. Staff displayed photos of playground soft‑play surfacing, renovated floors where carpet was removed and polished concrete installed, and concrete apron work to eliminate gravel areas that caused maintenance problems.
Facilities staff said Bob Shore Stadium received enamel coating on siding and new stadium speakers were installed. Staff reported they had lost the middle‑school fire‑alarm system and are replacing components across the building; they said fire watch will be in place whenever the building is occupied until replacement is complete. The presenter set an aggressive target to finish the alarm work by Friday and said initial vendor estimates had projected 30 days on site.
Staff also discussed parking‑lot and asphalt maintenance plans and said some planned paving was postponed to avoid redoing work after nearby public works activity. A master‑planning process was reported to be underway; building principals have begun participating in planning sessions and further contractor bidding is expected.
Board members asked clarifying questions but did not take formal action during the facility update. Staff said they will continue to report progress and schedule impacts to the board as projects proceed.
