Summary
The district's director of capital projects presented the annual asset preservation program (APP) building condition assessment required by OSPI, explaining scoring criteria, six‑year review cycles and that the report focuses on building systems; staff said APP‑eligible buildings scored about 77%.
Michelle, the district’s director of capital projects, presented the annual building condition assessment required by the state Asset Preservation Program (APP). She explained the district participates in the APP to remain eligible for state School Construction Assistance Program funds and that the APP uses a certified consultant and OSPI scoring criteria to evaluate building systems on a six‑year cycle.
Michelle said the APP report focuses on buildings and building systems rather than interior fixtures or furniture and that scores are entered into IQOS, the state database that calculates condition percentages based on specific scoring rules. When board members asked about the district’s overall percentage, staff said the APP‑eligible buildings were scored at approximately 77% in the materials presented; Michelle emphasized custodial and maintenance teams’ role in preserving facilities.
Board members praised facilities staff and noted that the APP is an important ongoing tool for capital planning. Michelle said the APP report is one input into broader facility and capital planning work, which the district will fold into discussions about bond priorities.
