Gilbert school committee schedules roof work and 900-panel solar installation
Summary
The W. L. Gilbert School Corporation Building & Grounds Committee approved previous meeting minutes and heard that a roof replacement will begin within weeks, a 900-panel solar system is planned with projected use by January 2025, and front doors will be replaced over winter break.
The W. L. Gilbert School Corporation Building & Grounds Committee met Nov. 20 and approved the minutes of its Oct. 16 regular meeting. Holly Cassaday called the meeting to order at 5:28 p.m.
Mike Pellitier, Head of Building and Grounds, updated the committee on planned facility work. He said the roof replacement is scheduled to start within the next two weeks and that the school plans to install 900 solar panels; the committee was told the solar installation is projected to be supplying power by January 2025. Pellitier also reported that the school's front doors are scheduled to be replaced over the upcoming winter break.
The committee handled the routine procedural business quickly: Jonathan Morhardt moved to approve the Oct. 16 minutes; Holly Cassaday seconded and the motion was unanimously approved.
