Board reviews gym floor designs, recommends $52,000 west-gym audio upgrade and approves donations
Summary
Trustees reviewed west gym floor design options and deferred a final floor selection; staff recommended a $52,000 Sweetwater Integration quote to replace the west gym sound system (funded from CAE bond money) and trustees approved a set of donations, two PD requests and an additional employment report by 4-0 votes.
Trustees reviewed multiple west-gym floor design options and discussed logo placement and color choices; the board deferred a final selection and asked staff to gather additional samples for a narrowed choice next month.
Facilities staff presented three bids to replace the gym's more-than-25-year-old sound system and recommended the lowest responsible quote from Sweetwater Integration at $52,000. Staff said the funds would come from CAE bond money and that installation would take place over the summer (not before graduation). The transcript records the recommendation and planning timeline; a final procurement vote was not recorded in the provided segments.
Separately, the board approved five donations (including gifts from the Burlington Row Fund, Central Wilmington Education Fund/Wilmington Foundation, Phil Franks/American Legion Post 169, and Brad Schuman), two additional professional development requests and an additional employment report; each motion passed 4-0 on voice votes.
Staff said the sound-system replacement is intended for athletics, graduation and assemblies and that the system will have distributed speakers for better audio coverage compared with the current center-mounted, aging setup.
