Summary

Staff reported plans to add floor outlets, relabel circuits for concession equipment and investigate gym lighting replacements; the board asked staff to prioritize safety and simple fixes before the school year.

Facilities staff described several near-term maintenance items: installing floor outlets in shared lobby spaces between classrooms, labeling kitchen/concession circuits so staff know which outlets are linked, and diagnosing gym lighting that flickers during volleyball and basketball events. The district will reschedule previously postponed electrical work and is sourcing parts or replacement fixtures for the gym lights.

"Maybe we should label them so people know what we're gonna plug into," a board member said after a walk-through revealed multiple shared circuits in the concession area. Staff reported they had originally dropped lines into other classrooms earlier in the year and will now prioritize outlet installs and a test run with existing equipment to confirm capacity. The board asked staff to return with cost estimates if significant replacements are required.
