Properties committee reviews maintenance updates, R&R items and forwards two policy revisions to the board
Summary
Managers reported pool patching, ongoing Beardsley painting, R&R replacements (including two 100-gallon water heaters estimated at $14,000), library equipment and furniture replacements, and the committee agreed to send FAO1 and FAO6 policy revisions to the board for approval.
The Properties Committee heard a series of operational and capital reports, reviewed R&R items, and agreed to forward two policy revisions to the board.
Hershel Workman, capital improvements projects manager, opened the committee reports by saying the Beardsley pool deck refinishing was finished Feb. 25 and that staff have not received complaints about slipperiness. He also showed a proposed backlit sign for the library clock tower and listed remaining 2025–26 CIP projects, including interior painting and shower upgrades at the Palm Ridge pool.
Maintenance manager Russ Boston said staff recovered 18 work items on the Silvercrest project and were down to two remaining; he described an emergency one-day closure at the RH Johnson pool to repair a 2-by-2-foot section of the beach-entry prior to spring break and said exterior painting at Beardsley is about 60–65% complete.
Committee members asked about R&R items and spare-part planning. Staff confirmed two 100-gallon water heaters that support aquatics facilities are budgeted for replacement work and that the $14,000 allocation covers those paired replacements when needed. On equipment, committee members discussed replacing the library color copier/printer; staff characterized it as an all-in-one color copier likely to cost multiple thousands of dollars (members said such units often exceed $5,000).
On policy, legal review produced two minor edits: FAO1 was returned without change and FAO6 was adjusted to refine rental-eligibility language to align with the controlling statute (legal advised unpluralizing a clause that required too many people to rent under the statute). The committee reached consensus to send FAO1 and FAO6 to the board without further amendment.
Other business included brief committee member comments praising staff work and an audience announcement about an ARC fundraising raffle. The meeting adjourned at 9:52 a.m.
