Summary

Director of MOT Francisco Carmona told the board the maintenance team is painting the cafeteria kitchen and a playground shed, preparing for an LED marquee installation in late August/early September, and clearing a kindergarten classroom for carpet replacement; fencing and asphalt work are on hold pending relocation of two C-trains in late July.

Francisco Carmona, director of maintenance, operations and transportation (MOT), presented the board with a summary of summer projects. Carmona said MOT crews painted the cafeteria kitchen and a shed near the playground, removed the marquee in preparation for an LED screen installation anticipated in late August or early September, and cleared a classroom to allow replacement of kindergarten carpet.

Carmona told the board that two C-trains on campus will be relocated in late July and described the relocation as a sequencing constraint: fencing around the shop and cafeteria and planned asphalt work are on hold until the trains are moved. He said the series of projects created a “domino effect” that required adjusting the schedule and coordinating with contractors and an architect for the maintenance-building expansion.

The minutes record the work items and the projected marquee timetable but do not specify contractor names, cost estimates or exact dates for the asphalt and fencing projects.
