Oak Grove outlines multi-year facilities plan, identifies $4M in unused bond funds for campus needs
Summary
Administrators gave a construction update and a five-year facilities plan covering CMU walls, gym and PAC additions, asphalt and roofing priorities, and HVAC and turf lifecycle planning; staff identified roughly $4 million in remaining bond funds restricted to capital projects and proposed using phased approaches to asphalt and roofing work.
District facilities staff updated the board on construction progress and long-term maintenance priorities, and proposed a staged five-year plan for asphalt, roofing, HVAC and playground/turf replacements funded primarily from bond proceeds.
Construction highlights: the main gym deck and roofing are partially complete, CMU exterior walls are about 95% installed, and the final concrete pour for the addition is expected in the coming weeks. Staff said temporary parking and access disruptions will continue through the remainder of the project.
Facilities staff recommended a phased approach to asphalt repairs (Phase 1 deep patching district-wide, Phase 2 mill and overlays for priority lots, Phase 3 sealcoat and striping) and outlined budget examples: district-wide patching estimated at ~$100,000, a year-one high-school mill/overlay example at $357,000, and other annual scenarios. For roofing, the district shared a 2023 inspection report and highlighted sections rated C/D that may require replacement or warranty claims; one primary TPO roof section was estimated near $600,000 to replace.
Administrators emphasized that bond funds cannot be used for operating expenses or salaries and recommended budgeting a recurring annual capital allocation (example: $300,000/year) to avoid repeated emergency repairs. The board asked staff to incorporate this planning into a multi-year capital forecast and prioritize projects tied to safety and long-term lifecycle costs.
