Summary

After staff reported increased summer activity at vacant properties, Board Member Griffin asked for a dashboard listing counts, inspection frequency, vandalism incidents, arrests, active/completed projects and change-order tracking; staff agreed to provide available information and consider dashboard design work.

Facilities staff told the committee they are seeing an increase in activity at vacant properties over the summer and that biweekly security-and-facilities inspections are being conducted on a rolling schedule to avoid predictability.

Board Member Griffin asked for a dashboard showing the number of vacant properties, inspection frequency, vandalism or security incidents, arrests if any, and a monthly tally of completed projects so the board can track schedule and budget performance. She also asked for visibility into change orders and other items that affect budgets and timelines.

Superintendent Dr. Fatima Fulmore said the district can commit to providing more frequent internal reporting with the information that is readily available and will add a dashboard design request to the development queue, noting that full dashboard development requires staffing and design capacity.

Facilities staff said they will supply the requested operational data on a more frequent basis while the district considers longer-term dashboard work.
