District reports steady progress on field house, athletic storage and pre‑K addition
Summary
District staff told the board the athletic storage building is complete but awaiting final state inspection paperwork, field house steel erection is ongoing, and the pre‑K addition has HVAC and interior painting underway; timeline aims for parts of the project to be usable for spring sports.
District project leads updated the Amanda‑Clearcreek Local School District Board of Education on multiple construction projects and timelines.
A presenter summarized the pre‑K addition: HVAC ductwork and domestic water lines are complete, interior painting is underway and ceiling grids have started in classrooms. “Windows will be going in,” the presenter said, and work connecting the cafeteria and teacher dining room through a new hallway is scheduled during the holiday break.
Staff said the athletic storage building itself is finished but final state inspection paperwork has delayed turnover of keys. The contractor missed an administrative filing after an inspection, so the district is awaiting corrected documentation before receiving official occupancy. The field house remains under steel erection with plumbing and electrical rough‑ins progressing; staff said demolition of the old field house will follow turnover of the new storage and facility access.
Facilities staff discussed temporary accommodations needed to host the mid‑state track meet and spring baseball/softball, including use of boosters’ concession areas and temporary restroom/concession solutions. The board was told the concession/restroom building is on track for completion and potential use this spring, and that some spaces (batting cage) will be unheated initially but can be heated after completion.
Why it matters: these capital projects affect facility availability for athletics, spectator amenities and long‑term building capacity. The timeline and inspection paperwork will determine when the district can occupy and use the new spaces.
What’s next: staff will notify the board when keys and official occupancy certifications are received and will coordinate logistics for spring events if some facilities come online in time.
