Board approves new gym floor contract, expects 3–4 week installation
Summary
Trustees authorized a contract for a resilient welded-seam gym floor with a 20-year lifespan and a 15-year warranty; presenters said the schedule should allow reopening for summer programming.
Trustees approved a contract to replace the district's gymnasium floor after staff described the product and timeline.
Facilities staff presented the proposed floor as a welded‑seam surface rated for multiple sports and for chair traffic, with a 20‑year life and a 15‑year warranty. The board discussed aesthetic options, including changing the outer skirt color from blue to purple to reflect CT school colors and adding a Cheetah logo. The presenter said the project budget was under budget and that installation would take approximately three to four weeks, with the aim of reopening the gym for summer programming.
A motion to approve the contract was made and seconded; the board approved it by voice vote. Trustees and staff noted the schedule should allow the gym to be ready for summer activities and that lining and decal work might extend into additional days. Staff committed to coordinating with summer-program partners on access and timing.
