Summary

An inspection found moisture under the Rubber Gym flooring causing odors; the district received a quote under $50,000 to install a moisture-preventing film that should delay resealing for about 15 years, so the project will not be put out for public bid, officials said.

Facilities staff reported repeated complaints of a gas-like smell in the Rubber Gym; an inspection identified moisture trapped beneath the flooring as the source. Jason Udstuen said the district received a quote under $50,000 and that the contractor will apply a protective film to prevent further moisture buildup, a treatment officials said will obviate resealing for roughly 15 years.

John, a representative from DLA Construction who attended the Facilities Committee meeting, praised the district's operations and maintenance staff and said priority repairs would be completed before staff return. The board did not take a formal vote during the Committee meeting; staff described the procurement as below the district's threshold for public bidding.
