Trustees hear facilities update; district says ag building painting will be paid from bond funds, not developer fees
Summary
Superintendent reported bids for painting and dry-rot repair of campus agricultural buildings and clarified those costs would be covered by bond funds rather than developer fees; trustees raised union and DSA considerations for volunteer labor and future remodels.
District staff told trustees that painting and dry-rot repairs for agricultural buildings on the middle and high school campus had been missed in recent painting work and that the district has already received at least one bid.
Superintendent Jeff Crane explained, "It would come from the bond," when asked whether developer fees would cover the work, and warned that using volunteer labor can raise union issues and may affect future DSA approvals for larger remodels. Trustees discussed timing and the desire not to begin projects that could leave the district with incomplete or unusable facilities.
The board asked staff to return with proposals for painting and any needed dry-rot repairs and to be mindful of bond accounting and DSA implications before committing to volunteer labor or project starts.
