Wiseburn board approves Del Air summer upgrades, turf and field work
Summary
Trustees voted unanimously to approve grouped facilities items that fund TK playground upgrades, field replacement and related Del Air projects; staff noted some netting and lighting changes will be handled as separate change orders.
The Wiseburn Unified School District Board of Trustees approved a package of facilities projects for Del Air Elementary on May 28, authorizing summer work that includes a TK playground upgrade, field replacement and ancillary site improvements.
Assistant superintendent/facilities staff highlighted several projects that will take place over the summer. "This is a lot of work that's gonna be done at Del Air this summer," a facilities presenter told trustees, noting specific items such as the TK playground upgrade and field replacement. Trustees discussed scope questions about field netting and lines; staff said those items may be processed as a separate change order. A Musco lighting pole was identified as an item that could interfere with shifting field layouts and will be addressed in follow‑up work.
The grouped motion to approve items 12.1–12.6 passed by unanimous voice vote, 3-0. Staff said the work must meet summer timelines to be ready for fall site use.
Why it matters: The projects aim to update aging playground and athletic infrastructure and provide additional practice and game space. Some speakers during the public comment period earlier in the meeting contrasted capital spending priorities with programmatic funding decisions discussed by residents.
Next steps: Staff will proceed with contracting and change‑order processing where needed and return to the board if separate procurement thresholds or significant scope changes require additional approvals.
