Summary

Facilities staff reported progress and remaining work on referendum and ESIP projects — boiler replacement scoped for the Early Learning Center, freeze-stat and mechanical fixes at high schools, window delivery for Westover, and further well monitoring/testing at a Walnut Street site; warranty closeouts and final payments with contractors were also discussed.

The buildings and grounds committee reported progress on ESIP (energy savings) and referendum-funded projects and described newly scoped work funded from remaining project balances.

The facilities director said staff have identified a small list of remaining items with Colliers and contractors. New projects proceeding include a boiler replacement scoped for the Early Learning Center, installation of freeze stats at High School East and High School South, and replacement of front‑office mechanical units at High School East to reduce water consumption. The director noted the district performed some mechanical work in‑house and expects to realize water‑use savings from the changes.

Project-specific status updates included Site 181 closeout work, Site 174 (Intermediate South) enclosure and discovery of conditions that must be rectified, Site 196 window deliveries for Westover scheduled for the beginning of the following week, and continuing well testing at 01:23 Walnut Street after LRSP recommendations. The director said contractors are preparing final payment requisitions that may include credit change orders; the district expects some returned funds to use on smaller referendum‑related projects.

Facilities staff also addressed recent operational incidents: a failed underground conduit affecting field lighting (likely age‑related wiring issues) and several broken windows that are covered with safety film while specialty glass is scheduled.
