Summary

Director of facilities reported that concrete was poured on the second floor of Galena Park High School Phase 3A and that Cimarron Elementary crews are remediating rain‑impacted soils with select fill; trustees heard status reports and warranty closeout plans for the 2016 bond.

Ed Martin, the district’s director for facilities, planning and construction, briefed the board Feb. 9 on progress for the 2016 and 2024 bond programs. Martin said Galena Park High School Phase 3A had its second‑floor concrete slab poured the morning of the meeting and that major decking and structure are in place, with masonry expected to follow in the coming weeks.

Martin also described site work at Cimarron Elementary after recent rain: crews drained standing water, removed unsuitable soils and will install select fill to reduce future foundation expansion and related issues. For the 2016 bond the presenter indicated only one remaining project (Phase 2) is in closeout pending resolution of warranty items and should be closed in the next couple of months.

Trustees asked brief clarifying questions and thanked staff for addressing walkway and sidewalk issues reported by parents. The update was informational; no capital budget changes or votes were taken at the meeting.
