Board weighs athletic-field moves, auditorium HVAC and community access to outdoor facilities
Summary
Members flagged repairs to the auditorium HVAC, safety problems with current athletic surfaces and a plan to relocate tennis and softball fields as part of a 50-year facilities plan; accessibility and community use were also raised.
The building and facilities discussion centered on several near-term and long-range priorities. A presenter said the auditorium HVAC work "needs to be done" and described the building committee reporting back on phased priorities. Members also said an existing athletic surface is unsafe: "It has to get down this year because kids can't play on it. It's not safe."
Board members discussed whether relocated outdoor facilities should be configured for community access, including adding pickleball lines and keeping courts open to the public, and raised the need for geotechnical checks before moving fields to avoid repeating past subsurface problems. No specific construction contracts or timelines were approved during the session.
