Maintenance report flags recurring bathroom damage, staffing limits and costly field drainage needs
Summary
Maintenance supervisor Mark briefed the board about recurring bathroom-stall damage, limited custodial hours, and drainage problems on the baseball field. Contractors recommended phased fixes; early estimates for major field work were discussed in the $50,000'$70,000 range.
Maintenance supervisor Mark (who was introduced during the superintendent's report) gave a verbal report on routine maintenance demands and field readiness for spring sports. He described recurring damage to bathroom stall hardware and said replacing parts or doors typically can be done in a short timeframe, but repeated monthly repairs may justify a more durable replacement.
On field work, outside turf and drainage specialists inspected the stadium and recommended a phased approach. Mark relayed contractor feedback that an initial French-drain solution and related field repairs could run on the order of $50,000 to $70,000 to make the baseball/softball fields more playable; board members asked for itemized, phased cost estimates to consider over multiple years.
Board members also discussed custodial staffing (daily coverage of roughly 10'12 hours total is currently provided) and asked administration to return with options to increase custodial time or use community volunteers/partners where appropriate. The board asked the maintenance team to provide comparative cost estimates for monthly repair spending versus one-time replacement projects.
