Superintendent Smith told the subcommittee the district is freezing new capital projects until finance finalizes quarterly reports; ballistic window film for three schools is proposed at $71,725 and could be moved into the current fiscal year depending on budget updates.

Superintendent Smith advised the Facilities Subcommittee that the district is currently under a freeze for new capital projects while the Finance Department finalizes quarterly reports and projections. Staff identified ballistic window film for BES, KES and HKIMS with an estimated cost of $71,725; the film is slated for the FY27 capital plan but the district may consider adding it to the current fiscal year if operating-budget updates permit.

Members discussed timing and funding options and deferred a final decision until Finance completes its projections. The note on the freeze signals that several planned capital items will await formal budget action before procurement can proceed.
