Board adopts long-term facility maintenance plan; outside audit planned as boilers loom as large expense
Summary
Trustees approved the district's long-term facility maintenance (LTFM) plan and a 2028 expenditure plan, learned LTFM revenues depend on enrollment and building age, and heard that potential boiler replacement could be a multimillion-dollar project prompting a planned outside facilities audit.
The board approved the district's long-term facility maintenance (LTFM) revenues and the 2028 expenditure plan after a staff presentation by Mr. Haas (S5).
Haas explained the program is for maintaining existing facilities, not for new construction, and that "revenues generated [are] based off of the number of students... and then also the age of the facilities." He said annual revenue shifts could be roughly "$25 to $30,000" depending on building ages, and that declining enrollment would reduce funds. Trustees asked about projected 2028 deficits; staff explained planned mechanical projects—particularly a potential boiler replacement at high school described in the discussion as a possible $5,000,000 project—drive the apparent downturn in that year.
Miss Giese (S3) and facilities staff said they will commission an outside full-facilities audit (no cost for the initial audit) to validate priorities and costs before committing to large capital work. The board approved the plan and will receive the audit results before major project decisions.
