TCCC boiler replacement underway; staff say budget will absorb cost
Summary
Staff reported that both original boilers at the TCCC building failed and a contractor is installing a single, higher-efficiency boiler; staff said the work can be absorbed within the operations budget and should not materially affect the budget.
Kaye Burnson updated the board on a boiler replacement at the TCCC building, saying the facility lost both original boilers and staff found a contractor to install a single, larger, higher-efficiency unit. "We lost 1 of them. We had some redundancy, but we ended up losing the other 1 also," Burnson said, describing the failure and the district’s response. She said the replacement should be handled within the operational budget and not create major budgetary strain.
Burnson said the new boiler is slightly larger and has a higher efficiency rating; staff will monitor performance after installation. The transcript records that staff expect the unit to handle the building’s needs, though Burnson said she was not completely certain and would follow up if further issues arise.
