Huntington ISD flags cafeteria HVAC, kitchen and gym floor as priority projects
Summary
At the budget workshop, staff presented a short list of priority projects (cafeteria HVAC replacement, elementary kitchen floor, high school gym floor) and cost estimates; trustees discussed safety, timing and whether to defer work.
During the budget workshop, Clifton (speaker 4) presented a short project list included in budget options and explained estimated costs and rationale for prioritizing work. Projects listed as most urgent were: replacing six cafeteria wall-pack HVAC units (total estimate roughly $50,000–$85,000 depending on pricing), replacing the elementary kitchen tile with epoxy flooring, and resurfacing the high school gym floor (noted as roughly 11 years since the last work for that floor).
Clifton said some projects could be deferred and that any removal from the project list would be an option for trustees; the board discussed safety, recurring maintenance, and the visibility of gym and community use when considering timing. Trustees asked for more detail on roofing, roofing assessments and a company-conducted facilities audit referenced in the presentation; staff said some assessments had been done and additional vendor reports were forthcoming.
