Summary

Board reviewed a preliminary capital outlay plan showing roughly $220,000 in reserves proposed for spending, an estimated $100,000 for several small roof replacements this summer, a vehicle budget near $200,000 for next year, and playground work that could add $20,000–$40,000. Construction interior punch‑list inspection was set for June 5; outside work timeline remains open.

Administrators presented a preliminary capital outlay budget and a construction update to the board. The preliminary budget showed proposed reserve spending near $220,000 and noted the district left certain items (bathroom remodel tied to the addition) on the list pending completion. The administrator said, "we're about $220,000 spending in the reserves" and flagged that roof replacements for three smaller buildings could total about $100,000 this summer.

Vehicle purchases were discussed as an expected next‑fiscal expense: administrators said vehicles would ‘‘stay close to about $200,000’’ next year. Playground upgrades were described as variable, potentially adding $20,000–$40,000 depending on scope. On construction progress, interior work is nearing completion but tile and locker deliveries have been delayed by tariffs; the board set an interior punch‑list inspection for June 5 to allow inspections and moving in, while noting boulevard and sidewalk work had no firm outside completion date.

Board members asked for more detailed line items before final approval; the preliminary plan will be refined as quotes and timing for playground, vehicles and roof work are confirmed.
