Board hears facilities priorities; old Canyonville site called a 'huge liability' with $520,000 demolition estimate
Summary
Superintendent Bare presented capital project priorities including CBMS and the industrial arts space at the high school; the district described the old Canyonville property as a liability with a demolition estimate of $520,000 and board members asked for firmer cost estimates and design plans.
At the April 2 meeting Superintendent Bare presented the district's facilities project plan and asked the board to consider priorities including repair to the high school's south wall and HVAC upgrades. He identified CBMS as the top priority and the industrial arts space at South Umpqua High School as the second priority.
The district described the old Canyonville property as a "huge liability," citing roof leaks, vandalism and safety concerns, and provided a demolition estimate of $520,000. Board members asked staff for more detailed plans and cost breakdowns: Randy Richardson pressed for details on industrial fans for the SUHS gym and reinforcement of fencing at the freeway side and footpath, while Jeff Johnson requested firmer numbers and consideration of ductless options for the CMS library.
Superintendent Bare asked staff to draft a plan that prioritizes the larger projects and returns with more specific cost estimates at a future meeting.
