Board Item Description
SUBJECT:Measure D Project Status
PERSON(S) RESPONSIBLE: Robin Blakley, Asst. Supt. for Business Services
RECOMMENDATION:
The Administration recommends that the Board review the Status of the various Measure D projects and request additional information as needed.
BACKGROUND:
In June 2008, the Board approved the Scopes of Work for each of the schools for work to be conducted under the Measure D project (pages 3 - 4). Within this process a budget was also assigned to each Scope of Work. Subsequent to that time the Administration, architects and site committees have been working on the design of each of the projects prior to being brought back to the Board for review and approval. Following that, the approved plans will be submitted to the Division of the State Architect for approval prior to going to bid. After the bid, the proposed contract awards will again be brought back to the Board for review and approval. As the Board is aware, some projects have proceeded through that process already, including the window replacement, High School Stadium reconstruction, Middle School Music Room and Auditorium remodeling etc. Some other projects have been able to proceed because they did not require Division of State Architect approval, such as, pool repairs, digital music room implementation, art room remodel etc.
INFORMATION:
The attached pages (5 - 11) identify the various projects as identified within the adopted Scope of Work and their current status. Following those pages is a status report showing the financial status of project expenditures to date (pages 12 15). Finally, attached is a summary of estimated time lines for the major projects (page 16). Architects Rick Fedelem of HBFL and Ken Yamauchi of HY Architects will be present at the meeting to assist the Board in understanding the status of the various projects. Also present will be Cameron Edwards who is acting as an assistant in project coordination and as the State Certified Inspector on projects that require such inspection. The following is a brief summary of the status of the various projects:
