Summary
Facilities Manager Joe Motta told the board HVAC and ADA upgrades are major capital priorities, reported a $60,000 quote for adding air conditioning to the high-school gym, and said the district was awarded a TAP Grant for a long-range facility plan and is pursuing Renew America grant work at Canyonville.
Facilities Manager Joe Motta told the board on April 1 that HVAC and Americans with Disabilities Act upgrades will be a major portion of the district’s capital budget. He said units were replaced over spring break in the art room, wood shop, metal shop and weight room, and that staff and students had reported feeling unsafe in a restroom, prompting a prioritized ADA-accessible restroom upgrade starting with senior restrooms.
Mr. Motta presented an updated quote to add air conditioning to the high school gym, saying, "The cost of the air conditioning came in at $60,000." He also reported the district was awarded a TAP Grant for a long-range facility plan and is pursuing a Renew America grant to fund HVAC and window upgrades at the Canyonville campus. Staff said HVAC and ADA work will be phased according to budget and grant award timing.
