The board approved a contract with Mobile Modular to install fire sprinklers in eight modular classrooms at Mountain House High School to meet requirements for extended temporary use. Staff explained the sprinklers will be installed inside the portables so the sprinkler systems will move with the units if they are relocated.
Trustees asked whether moving the units resets temporary approval timelines and how the work would be funded. Staff said funding would come from developer fees (Fund 25) and explained, "we get, $39.36 cents on the square foot" from commercial development collections; staff also noted moving a unit would cost about $65,000. Trustee Samik Modi moved to approve the contract; Trustee Venita Daniel seconded, and the motion carried unanimously.
The sprinkler installation is the compliance step the board identified as necessary to extend the temporary approvals for the modular classrooms.
