[00:00:01]
THIS IS 3:02 AND THIS IS A REGULARLY CALLED MEETING THE FACILITIES COMMITTEE OF THE GARLAND ISD BOARD OF TRUSTEES.AROUND THE ROOM [INAUDIBLE] THERE IS AN AGENDA.
THERE IS AN AGENDA TOO, BUT A QUORUM IS PRESENT.
THIS MEETING IS BEING HELD IN ACCORDANCE OF GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT'S EXECUTIVE ORDER OF SEPTEMBER 17, 2020, AN ORDER BY ORDER OF THE DEPARTMENT OF TEXAS HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES.
THESE MODIFICATIONS ARE NECESSARY TO PROMOTE THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF THE GARLAND ISD COMMUNITY AND TO COMPLY WITH GOVERNMENT ORDERS, AS WELL AS GUIDANCE FROM HEALTH AUTHORITIES.
ITEM THREE ON OUR AGENDA IS PUBLIC FORUM.
MS. HOGAN, DO WE HAVE ANY CARDS?
[IV. Superintendent's Message]
SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE, DR. LOPEZ.WELL, GOOD EVENING, EVERYBODY.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US TODAY AT THE FACILITIES COMMITTEE MEETING.
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS ABOUT JUST HOW WE'RE MAINTAINING THE MASK MANDATE AND HOW WE'RE GOING TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS ON HOW WE WANT TO HANDLE OUR FORUMS FOR BOARD MEETINGS FROM HERE ON OUT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, DR. LOPEZ.
[V.A. Information Items]
MOVE ON TO ITEM FIVE AGENDA ITEMS, INFORMATION ITEMS, A1 RECEIVE INFORMATION REGARDING TEXAS SSC OUTSTANDING INDIVIDUAL SERVICE AWARD BESTOWED TO PAT LAMB, DR. SHELLEY GARRETT.GOOD EVENING, CHAIRMAN JOHNSON.
DR. LOPEZ, ESTEEMED BOARD MEMBERS.
I WILL HAND THIS OUT AT CONCLUSION, BUT I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU IT'S QUITE AN HONOR.
THE TEXAS SCHOOL SAFETY CENTER GIVES OUT AN OUTSTANDING INDIVIDUAL SERVICE AWARD AND THEY HAVE BESTOWED THIS TO OUR VERY OWN PAT LAMB.
IT'S GIVEN TO AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS MADE A SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTION TO SCHOOL SAFETY AND SECURITY THROUGH THEIR PERSONAL INITIATIVES, COMMITMENT, STRONG ADVOCACY EFFORTS AND LEADERSHIP.
AND AT THE REGULAR BOARD MEETING, I WOULD LIKE TO BRING PAT TO SAY A FEW WORDS AND HIS ENTIRE TEAM.
I CHECKED THEIR WEBSITE YESTERDAY, TEXAS SAFE SCHOOLS, AND THEY DID NOT HAVE IT UP YET, BUT JUST A MOMENT AGO THEY DID.
SO I'M GOING TO PASS THIS OUT, IF THAT'S OK.
IS THAT ALL RIGHT? OK, THANK YOU.
GREAT JOB, WE LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU AT THE BOARD MEETING.
ALL RIGHT, MOVING ON TO INFORMATION ITEM A2 RECEIVE PRESENTATION ON BOND UPDATE MR. JAVIER FERNANDEZ.
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, DR. LOPEZ, THIS IS THE MARCH BOARD UPDATE BOND PROGRAM EXCUSE ME, THE MARCH 2014 BOND PROGRAM UPDATE.
OK, SO 91 PROJECTS WERE APPROVED IN THE BOND PROGRAM.
WE HAVE A TOTAL OF FIVE PROJECTS THAT ARE EITHER IN CONSTRUCTION OR IN CLOSE OUT.
BEFORE WE GET STARTED, I NEED A CLARIFICATION ON THIS SLIDE.
OK, ARE THOSE NUMBERS CORRECT? DID I MESSED UP? SO FIVE THAT HAVEN'T BEEN CLOSED OUT, RIGHT? HOW MANY WERE NOT CLOSED OUT WHEN YOU FIRST GOT ON BOARD? THE NUMBER OF PROJECTS THAT WERE CLOSED WAS 20.
WHEN YOU FIRST GOT ON BOARD? YES, SIR.
AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN ON BOARD? A LITTLE OVER.
I'VE STARTED THE I TOOK OVER THE BOND PROGRAM IN JULY OF 2019.
SO IN ABOUT TWO YEARS TIME, A LITTLE UNDER TWO YEARS TIME, YOU CLOSED OUT A LOT OF PROJECTS.
I JUST WANT TO LET EVERYBODY KNOW HOW DILIGENT YOU'VE BEEN WORKING AND BRINGING THIS TO A CLOSE.
SO MANY THINGS WERE LEFT OPEN.
AND AND WHEN JAVIER CAME ON BOARD, HE SAID, GIVE ME A LITTLE TIME AND WE'RE GOING TO CLOSE THESE OUT.
AND SO WE'RE COMING TO THE END.
AND I JUST WANTED TO PUBLICLY THANK YOU.
THREW YOU OFF A LITTLE BIT, DIDN'T I? YES, SIR, YOU DID.
[LAUGHTER] THIS PULLS FROM A DIFFERENT CALCULATION.
SO I WAS LOOKING AT MY FORMULA.
I WAS LIKE THIS IS A FORMULA, SO SHOULDN'T.
I WAS LIKE, WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY FORMULA? I'M SORRY.
OK, BUT YES, I WAS ACTUALLY TRYING TO DO THE MATH IN MY HEAD.
NO, IT HAS BEEN A PLEASURE WORKING FOR GARLAND ISD.
I HAVE ENJOYED MY TIME HERE AND IT HAS BEEN A CHALLENGE, BUT I HAVE ENJOYED WORKING
[00:05:04]
AND TRYING TO GET THIS PROGRAM TO THE FINISH LINE.AS FAR AS DISCIPLINE SUMMARIES GO, AGAIN, THIS IS THE LIST OF DISCIPLINES THAT ARE INVOLVED WITH A PROJECT SO MANY TIMES WHEN WE HAVE A CONSTRUCTION PROJECT, WE TALK ABOUT THE ARCHITECT AND THE GENERAL CONTRACTOR.
BUT THERE ARE VARIOUS NUMBER OF OTHER CONSULTANTS THAT ARE INVOLVED WITH THE COMPLETION OF A PROJECT.
AND SO WE SHARE THIS WITH THE BOARD SO THAT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND AND SEE HOW MANY ACTUAL DISCIPLINES ARE INVOLVED WITH THE WORK THAT IT TAKES TO GET A PROJECT DONE WITHIN GARLAND.
SO THE GOAL IS THAT AT THE END OF MARCH, WE WILL HAVE FIVE PROJECTS THAT WILL STILL BE OPEN FROM AN ARCHITECT AND CONTRACTOR STANDPOINT, AND WE'LL HAVE FIVE PROJECTS THAT ARE STILL IN THE TEST AND BALANCE PIECE.
AS I SPOKE BEFORE THE TEST AND BALANCE PIECE IS THE HVAC PIECE, AND THAT IS ONE OF THE LAST ITEMS THAT GETS TESTED AND ADJUSTED BEFORE THE PROJECT IS CLOSED.
AND SO THOSE TYPICALLY FALL IN LINE WITH THE ARCHITECTS AND THE CONTRACTOR.
ON PHASE THREE, O'BANION, IT'S STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION, AND I WILL ADDRESS THE O'BANION CONSTRUCTION IN A FOLLOW UP ITEM THAT I HAVE WITHIN THIS MEETING TO DISCUSS SOME OF THE THINGS THAT ARE STILL OPEN AT O'BANION.
IN CLOSE OUT IS THE JACKSON MIDDLE SCHOOL, NORTH GARLAND AND SOUTH GARLAND.
I WILL AM GLAD TO SAY THAT EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE SCHOOLS WE ARE IN AND WE HAVE DEMOBILIZED ON EVERY ONE OF THESE CAMPUSES, THE LAST ONE TO DEMOBILIZE WAS COYLE MIDDLE SCHOOL, AND IT WAS DEMOBILIZED LAST WEEK.
SO WE'RE STILL WORKING ON SOME PUNCH LIST OF THOSE.
BUT CONTRACTORS, TRAILERS AND EVERYTHING HAVE MOVED ON.
THIS IS THE INSTRUMENT STORAGE THAT WE HAVE AT SOUTH GARLAND THEY ARE UTILIZING THE SPACE NOW.
SO THAT WAS ONE OF THE LAST CAMPUSES WHEN WE MET LAST MONTH THE BUILDING WAS READY, BUT WE HAD NOT OCCUPIED THE SPACE.
AND SO STUDENTS ARE STARTING TO OCCUPY THE SPACE AT SOUTH GARLAND NOW.
SO ALL OF THEIR MATERIALS AND THINGS ARE BEING STORED AT THE CAMPUS.
AND PHASE FOUR IS COYLE MIDDLE SCHOOL.
AGAIN, IT'S STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
I HAVE AN ITEM TO DISCUSS LATER ON IN THIS MEETING TO DISCUSS THE ITEMS THAT ARE STILL OPEN AT COYLE MIDDLE SCHOOL IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THAT PROJECT.
ONE OF THE LAST ITEMS THAT WERE REMAINING COYLE WAS THE SITE WORK THAT WAS PART OF THE PROJECT AND THAT WAS ENSURING CONFORMANCE WITH ADA ACCESS TO THE FRONT ENTRY.
AND SO THOSE ITEMS ARE COMPLETE NOW AT THE CAMPUS.
AGAIN, THIS IS A SITE WORK ON THE SIDE OF ON THE SIDE OF COYLE AND SOME OF THE NEWS DOORS AND FRAMES THAT WE ADDED AT COYLE AND WITH THAT, IN ADDITION TO THAT, THERE IS A REPORT ON OUR EXPENDITURES.
THIS IS A REPORT FROM ORACLE THAT GIVES YOU THE DATA AS WE SEE IT FROM THE FINANCE DEPARTMENT.
DO WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING THE REPORT? ANY BOARD QUESTIONS? OK, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. FERNANDEZ.
MOVING ON TO A DISCUSSION, ITEM B1 DISCUSS EXECUTIVE ORDER NUMBER GA-34 RELATING
[V.B. Action Items (Non Consent)]
TO THE OPENING OF TEXAS IN RESPONSE TO THE COVID-19 DISASTER AND GARLAND ISD OPERATIONS, DR. RUSSELL AND DR. RINGO.MR. JOHNSON, BOARD OF TRUSTEES, DR. LOPEZ, GOOD EVENING.
AS WE SAW AND HEARD LAST WEEK, THE GOVERNOR HAS LIFTED THE ORDER ON CAPACITY AND MASK STARTING TOMORROW.
AND WITH THAT, TEXAS EDUCATION AGENCY'S GUIDANCE IS FOR SCHOOL TO CONTINUE WEARING MASK AND PLEXIGLASS.
SO AS A DISTRICT, WE ARE FOLLOWING THE SAME GUIDELINES IN PLACE.
BUT THE PURPOSE OF THIS AGENDA ITEM IS A DISCUSSION WITH THE BOARD FOR HOW YOU WISH TO PROCEED WITH BOARD MEETINGS WITH THE CHANGE IN ORDER ON CAPACITY AND MASK AFTER TODAY'S OR AFTER TOMORROW'S DATE AND FOR UPCOMING BOARD MEETINGS.
IN REGARDS TO SCHOOLS AS YOU PONDER THAT IN THAT DISCUSSION, AGAIN, THERE WILL NOT BE ANY CHANGES.
OUR GOAL IS THAT OUR SCHOOLS REFLECT THE SAFE ENVIRONMENT THEY HAVE BEEN AND CONTINUE
[00:10:04]
TO BE WITH OUR CLEANING PROCEDURES AND MASKS INSIDE THOSE FACILITIES.YES, WHY WOULD WE CHANGE ANYTHING IF THE REST OF THE DISTRICT IS GOING TO REMAIN UNDER THE GUIDELINES THAT WE'RE USING THUS FAR? SO WHY WOULD WE CHANGE ANYTHING HERE? MS. GRIFFIN, I CAN SPEAK TO THAT.
IT'S WHETHER OR NOT LEGALLY WE ARE ABLE TO.
THERE IS AN ORDER THAT GOVERNOR ABBOTT HAD ISSUED BACK IN SEPTEMBER 17, 2020 THAT I HAVE HERE.
AND ORIGINALLY THEY HAD SAID BACK IN SEPTEMBER 17TH THERE WAS NO OCCUPANCY LIMIT FOR THE FOLLOWING, AND IT OUTLINED LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL OPERATIONS, INCLUDING COUNTY AND MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENTAL OPERATIONS RELATING TO LICENSING, YADA, YADA, YADA, AND ALSO ANY PUBLIC OR PRIVATE SCHOOLS AND ANY OTHER PUBLIC OR PRIVATE INSTITUTION OF HIGHER EDUCATION.
SO WE HAD THAT BACK IN SEPTEMBER.
AND NOW WE HAVE THE MOST RECENT GUIDANCE THAT GOVERNOR ABBOTT IS ALLOWING 100 PERCENT OCCUPANCY.
AND, YOU KNOW, ALSO THE T.A GUIDANCE IS JUST FOR SCHOOL SCHOOLS, BUT NOT NECESSARILY ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDINGS.
SO I'M CHECKING WITH OTHER DISTRICTS TO SEE WHAT THEY'RE DOING AS WELL.
BUT WE HAVE THE ORDERS THAT I JUST MENTIONED BEFORE YOU.
ARE YOU SAYING WE HAVE NO CHOICE? SO WHY ARE WE DISCUSSING IT IF WE HAVE NO CHOICE? I'M NOT SAYING THAT WE HAVE NO CHOICE.
I'M JUST TRYING TO GLEAN LEGALLY WHAT WE CAN DO.
IN MY OPINION, I LOOKED INTO THIS ISSUE, ANTICIPATION OF THIS MEETING SOMEWHAT.
AND BASED ON THE SEPTEMBER 17TH, 2020 ORDERS, ONE OF THE ONES, I BELIEVE, THAT WAS RESCINDED BY THIS CURRENT EXECUTIVE ORDER.
SO WE CAN'T RELY ON ANYTHING THAT'S CONTAINED IN THAT.
SO WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER, IT DOESN'T PROVIDE US WITH ANY GUIDANCE ON WHAT WE DO WITH RESPECT TO BOARD MEETINGS.
IT DOES SAY YOU CAN REFER TO THE TEA WITH RESPECT TO THE OPERATION OF THE SCHOOL, BUT THE GENERAL PUBLIC DOESN'T HAVE ANY RIGHT TO GO INTO A SCHOOL GENERALLY, IT'S ONLY WHAT WE ARE ABLE TO GRANT.
WE CAN'T KEEP THE GENERAL PUBLIC FROM BOARD MEETINGS UNDER NORMAL REASONS BECAUSE THE TEXAS OPEN MEETINGS ACT.
SO THAT'S THE DICHOTOMY WE HAVE.
I GUESS THE QUESTION I WOULD HAVE FOR LEGAL AND YOU, DR. RINGO, IS IF WE DO HAVE TO ALLOW THE PUBLIC TO THE MEETING, CAN WE LAY OUT THE ROOM AS SUCH THAT WE KEEP THE SEATS AS DISTANT AS POSSIBLE, I.E. WE REDUCE CAPACITY, BUT WE ALLOW FOR SOME MEASURE OF THE PUBLIC TO COME IN SO WE CAN COMPLY WITH THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT.
BUT WE HAVE THE SEATS SPREAD OUT AS CLOSE TO SIX FEET APART AS POSSIBLE.
AND THEN WE ALL GO BACK TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE OF THE WALL OVER THERE.
MR. JOHNSON, WE DID ALLOW MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC TO COME TO THE MEETINGS.
IT WAS JUST IN THE OVERFLOW ROOM IN THE GARLAND ROWLETT ROOM THEY JUST WERE NOT IN THIS PARTICULAR BOARDROOM WHILE THE MEETINGS WERE OCCURRING.
BUT WE DIDN'T JUST SAY THAT FOR MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC.
WE ALSO HAD THAT FOR EMPLOYEES, FOR EXAMPLE, WE DON'T HAVE EMPLOYEES CONGREGATING RIGHT BEFORE THEIR PRESENTATION.
THEY LITERALLY GET A TEXT OR A CALL FROM THEIR RESPECTIVE CHIEF TO SAY, YOU'RE UP AND THEN THEY COME IN.
SO IT WASN'T JUST FOR THE PUBLIC, BUT SO THE PUBLIC DOES THEY ARE ALLOWED TO COME INTO THE BUILDING.
SO YOUR OPINION PRIOR TO SEPTEMBER 17TH, WE COULD HAVE DONE THAT ARRANGEMENT ALSO.
WE COULD HAVE NEVER HAD A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC IN THIS ROOM.
THEY COULD HAVE JUST BEEN IN A REMOTE ROOM, JUST WATCHING ON TV AND THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN FINE.
HE'S SAYING PRIOR TO ANY ORDER, LIKE IF THIS WAS A YEAR AGO OR.
OTHER DISTRICTS, IT ALSO DEPENDS ON YOUR SPACE LIMITATIONS, TOO.
EVERYBODY WAS SHOULDER TO SHOULDER.
WE HAD STUDENTS IN HERE, WE HAD PARENTS IN HERE WE HAD MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC COME IN HERE TO AND WITH THE GUIDANCE THAT WE HAVE RECEIVED FROM DALLAS COUNTY HEALTH AUTHORITY AND ALSO GOVERNOR ABBOTT ORDERS, THIS IS WHAT THE DISTRICT
[00:15:02]
IMPLEMENTED FOR SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.I'M JUST AND I UNDERSTAND I UNDERSTAND WHY WE DID THIS, AND I APPROVE OF WHAT WE DID IN RESPONSE TO IT, AND WE NEED TO COMPLY WITH THOSE ORDERS AND WE NEED TO COMPLY WITH LOCAL HEALTH REGULATIONS.
HOWEVER, WE CAN'T HIDE BEHIND THAT NOW.
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO COME UP WITH A PLAN THAT THAT CORRESPONDS WITH THE ORDER THAT THAT'S IN PLACE.
SO IF YOU'RE SAYING PRIOR TO ALL OF THIS, IT WAS PERFECTLY FINE TO HAVE NO PEOPLE IN THE ROOM EFFECTIVELY, THEN I GUESS WE'RE STILL LEGALLY COMPLIANT.
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT'S THE CASE.
AND, YOU KNOW, IF WE DO NEED TO HAVE BE ABLE TO HAVE PUBLIC IN THIS ROOM, I WANT TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT WE DO IT IN A SAFE AND PRUDENT MANNER TO WHERE THEY'RE SPREAD OUT.
AND THERE'S NOT, LIKE YOU SAID, EVERYONE SHOULDER TO SHOULDER THE WAY IT WAS.
I THINK AT LEAST IN THE SHORT TERM, IF WE ARE GOING TO HAVE PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM, MAYBE WE TRY TO DO ANY TYPE OF AWARDS LIKE GEMS AND STUFF VIRTUALLY.
SO WE DON'T BECAUSE SO MUCH OF THAT ARE PEOPLE COMING IN SUPPORT OF THOSE PARTICULAR INDIVIDUALS.
AND THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE GET SO MANY PEOPLE IN THE ROOM AT ONE TIME.
I THINK IF WE DIDN'T HAVE THAT AND WE DID CONTINUE TO KEEP OUR STAFF ON CALL THROUGH TEXT, I HONESTLY, I DON'T THINK WE'D EVER HAVE MORE THAN FOUR OR FIVE PEOPLE WHO WANTED TO ACTUALLY BE HERE AS A GENERAL RULE.
BUT I THINK EVEN IF WE DO DETERMINE THAT WE NEED TO LET PEOPLE IN THE ROOM, I THINK WE CAN DO IT IN A RELATIVELY SAFE MANNER.
BUT I DID PUT THIS MATTER ON THIS AGENDA BECAUSE I WANTED OPEN DISCUSSION ON WHAT THE BOARD FELT MOST COMFORTABLE WITH.
AND WHAT I WANTED TO DO IS MAKE SURE WE'RE NOT ASSUMING THAT WE'RE JUMPING THE GUN AND WE'RE WORKING WITHIN THE LEGAL GUIDELINES AND WE HAVE THESE OPEN DISCUSSIONS HERE.
AND SO, YOU KNOW, THAT WAY WE CAN WE CAN MOVE APPROPRIATELY AND THE PUBLIC KNOWS WHAT WE'RE THINKING AND WHY WE'RE REACTING TO WHATEVER ORDER IS OUT THERE.
THE ORDER DOES SAY UP TO 100 PERCENT CAPACITY.
THERE'S PLACES THAT WILL NOT OPEN UP 100 PERCENT.
THERE'S PLACES THAT WILL BE ENFORCING THE MASK POLICY.
OK, THERE'S PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING TO BE DOING DIFFERENT THINGS.
WE JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHATEVER IS DONE, BECAUSE WE SAID THIS IS WHAT WE DO FOR OUR CLASSROOMS. AND MS. GRIFFIN BRINGS UP A GOOD POINT.
WELL, WHY WOULD WE CHANGE ANYTHING FOR THE WAY WE RUN BOARD ROOMS. BECAUSE THOSE THINGS CAN BE MODIFIED AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE FOLLOW THE BOARD'S DISCRETION ON THAT.
SO ANY TYPE OF FEEDBACK FROM YOU ALL WOULD BE APPRECIATED AS WE MOVE FORWARD.
I WOULD JUST LIKE TO CHIME IN.
JUST BECAUSE WE CAN DO IT DOES THAT NECESSARILY MEAN LEGALLY THAT WE HAVE TO.
I'M LOOKING INTO THAT, SIR, MR. BEACH.
AND DR. LOPEZ, I APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS, BUT I THINK THE BOARD AS A WHOLE, WE DISCUSSED IT AT ONE TIME THAT WE WERE VERY HAPPY WITH THE SITUATION THAT WE'RE IN RIGHT NOW AND THAT WE'VE GOT IT ROLLING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION TO GO AHEAD.
AND EVEN WITH THE EXECUTIVE ORDER ABOUT THE MASK AND EVERYTHING THAT, YOU KNOW, WE TALKED ABOUT MOVING BACK INTO THE HORSESHOE EVENTUALLY.
BUT I THINK THAT THAT'S JUST LIKE NOT DO A KNEE JERK REACTION TO THE EXECUTIVE ORDER TO ESPECIALLY AS FAR AS ENDING SCHOOL.
AND I THINK THE PUBLIC AND OUR COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT IS RELAYING THAT MESSAGE PRETTY WELL, THAT WE WANT TO STAY AS WE ARE, YOU KNOW, TO LET MORE PEOPLE, IF THEY WANT TO GET THE SHOTS, THEY CAN AND WE'LL HAVE MORE VACCINATIONS OUT THERE.
SO IT'LL BE MORE OF A COMFORT LEVEL THAN WHERE WE ARE TODAY STILL, BECAUSE THERE ARE STILL PEOPLE THAT ARE STILL ON THE EDGE AS FAR AS FEELING ABOUT WHAT COVID IS DOING AND SOME OF THE OTHER STRAINS POSSIBLY.
SO ANYWAY, I THINK THAT WE'RE ON THE RIGHT TRACK AND I THINK THAT WE'RE WE'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING AND WE'RE TRYING TO BE AS OPEN AS WE CAN WITH EVERYBODY, POSSIBLY, YOU KNOW, WHEN WE MEET UP, WHEN THEY MEET UPSTAIRS OR WHEREVER THEY COME FROM IN OUR COMMITTEE MEETINGS.
SO I THINK THAT WE'RE ON THE RIGHT TRACK AND THAT WE OUGHT TO JUST STAY THERE UNTIL WE ARE READY TO MAKE THAT INITIAL MOVE BACK TO THE HORSESHOE.
MR. BEACH, IF I COULD JUST PIGGYBACK ON THAT.
IN THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE THEY HAD A DISASTER DECLARATION THAT THEY HAD ISSUED BACK IN MARCH 13, 2020, AND IN THE ORDER THAT GOVERNOR ABBOTT HAD EXECUTIVE ORDER GA34, THE SECOND PARAGRAPH SAYS, WHEREAS IN EACH SUBSEQUENT MONTH AFFECTED THROUGH TODAY, I HAVE RENEWED THE DISASTER DECLARATION FOR ALL TEXAS COUNTIES.
SO SOME DISTRICTS HAVE INTERPRETED THAT TO MEAN THEY ARE GOOD TO KEEP HAVING VIRTUAL BOARD MEETINGS, LET ALONE HAVING IN PERSON AND HAVING THE PUBLIC.
[00:20:01]
SO I JUST WANTED TO ADD THAT.YOU KNOW, ALSO THAT'S A GOOD POINT.
AND ALSO ON TOP OF THAT, IF WE ALL THINK ABOUT IT, IT'S BEEN ONE YEAR AND THIS ALL STARTED TAKING PLACE THAT WE HAD THE PANDEMIC AND COVID BECAUSE IT WAS A SPRING BREAK AND WE DIDN'T COME BACK FROM SPRING BREAK AND THAT'S WHEN WE WENT VIRTUAL AS A BOARD.
SO, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT.
THERE'S STILL GROUPS THAT ARE STILL MEETING VIRTUALLY INSTEAD OF EVEN DOING WHAT WE'RE DOING LIVE RIGHT HERE TODAY.
SO I THANK YOU FOR THAT COMMENT.
I AGREE WITH MS. GRIFFIN AND MR. BEACH'S COMMENTS ABOUT KEEPING STATUS QUO.
I COME TO BOARD MEETINGS WITH A MASK.
MY OWN HAND SPRAY, MY ZINC BASED COUGH DROPS, I'M COMFORTABLE JUST AS WE ARE, THANK YOU.
AND I DON'T WANT ANYONE TO THINK I'M NOT.
I MEAN, I'M PERFECTLY FINE WITH THE STATUS QUO.
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE COMPLY WITH THE LAW.
AND I DO REMEMBER THE DISASTER DECLARATION EPISODE FROM LAST SPRING AND THAT GOVERNOR ABBOTT TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED SOME PROVISIONS OF THE TEXAS OPEN MEETINGS ACT.
THE QUESTION IS, WHAT EFFECT DOES THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER HAVE ON THAT? AND WE DON'T KNOW THAT YET.
SO THERE IS A CHANCE THAT MAYBE THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE ISSUED SOME KIND OF AN OPINION SAYING THAT TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU'RE DOING VIRTUAL OR SOMETHING AS A RESULT OF SOME PRIOR ORDER, THIS TRUMPS THAT.
BUT WE DO NEED TO FIGURE THAT OUT.
I MEAN, I THINK THIS PLAN WORKS PERFECTLY FINE SO LONG AS WE'RE NOT GOING TO GET SMITE DOWN BY SOME AUTHORITY THAT SAYS WE'RE VIOLATING IT.
AND THERE ARE VERY LIKELY PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY THAT THAT WANT TO COME BACK IN TO THIS ROOM.
SO THEY'RE LIKELY GOING TO BE THE ONES THAT ARE GOING TO GO TO THE STATE COMPLAINING ABOUT IT.
SO WE JUST NEED TO FIGURE THAT OUT.
THAT'S MY ONLY THAT'S MY ONLY POINT.
AND WITH RESPECT, ONE LAST THING WITH RESPECT TO THE SCHOOLS, BECAUSE I KNOW THAT THIS IS MAINLY ABOUT THE BOARD MEETING, BUT I THINK THE AGENDA ITEM ENCOMPASSES EVERYTHING ABOUT THE EXECUTIVE ORDER.
I'VE READ A NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO'VE SENT EMAILS ABOUT ALLOWING OUR KIDS TO GO TO SCHOOL WITHOUT MASKS NOW THAT THE EXECUTIVE ORDER HAS BEEN SIGNED BY THE GOVERNOR.
AND I GENERALLY UNDERSTAND THE DESIRE TO GET BACK TO SOME SENSE OF NORMALCY AMONG THE SCHOOLS.
HOWEVER, THERE'S A TWO THINGS.
ONE, I THINK THERE'S A COMPELLING REASON THE TEA HAS RECOMMENDED WE CONTINUE THAT.
AND I THINK WE NEED TO FOLLOW TEA AND LOCAL HEALTH AUTHORITIES TO THE BEST EXTENT WE CAN.
BUT THERE'S ANOTHER ASPECT TO THIS THAT I THINK WE'RE UNIQUE ABOUT AND WE'RE A CHOICE DISTRICT.
AND WE HAVE LAID OUT ALREADY LAID OUT OUR CHOICES FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER.
WITH RESPECT, IF YOU WANT TO BE VIRTUAL OR YOU WANT TO BE IN PERSON, THOSE CHOICES ARE MADE.
AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE CHOSEN TO PUT THEIR KIDS FACE TO FACE IN OUR DISTRICT MAY HAVE DONE IT BECAUSE OF THE PROTOCOLS AND SAFETY ASPECTS THAT WE HAVE ALREADY HAVE IN PLACE.
AND SO EFFECTIVELY NOW WE HAVE TO GIVE THEM THE BENEFIT OF THE BARGAIN THEY BOUGHT INTO IT THINKING THAT THIS WAS GOING TO BE THE WAY IT WAS AND THEIR KID'S GOING TO COME WITH A CERTAIN SAFETY PROTOCOL.
IT IS A DIFFICULT THING FOR US TO PULL THE RUG OUT FROM THEM NOW THAT WE'VE ALREADY HAD THAT ELECTION PERIOD AND IT'S ALREADY OVER FOR THEM TO COME THROUGH, THEY EXPECT A CERTAIN LEVEL OF THINGS.
I THINK WE NEED TO DELIVER IT.
IT'S ONE MORE QUARTER OF SCHOOL.
MY HOPE IS THAT WE CAN START SCHOOL NEXT YEAR WITH NO RESTRICTIONS AT ALL.
HOPEFULLY THE VACCINATION PROGRAMS WILL BE WIDE ENOUGH AND IN EFFECT.
BUT I THINK FOR THE REST OF THIS YEAR, WE NEED TO STAY THE COURSE BECAUSE THAT'S THE PROMISE WE MADE TO A BUNCH OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE RELIED UPON OUR STATEMENTS TO THAT POINT.
ANY OTHER COMMENTS FROM MEMBER OF THE BOARD.
MR. MILLER? YEAH, JUST TO CHIME IN, MY FEELINGS ON THIS ARE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME WAY.
I THINK WE'RE ALL ANXIOUS AND HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ANXIOUS TO BE AS TRANSPARENT AS WE POSSIBLY CAN WITHIN THIS BODY.
AND I THINK WE ALL ALSO RECOGNIZE THE NEED TO ASSURE SAFETY FOR THOSE OF US IN THE ROOM AND THOSE WHO WOULD VISIT US.
I THINK IT'S VERY GOOD FOR OUR ATTORNEY TO CHECK OUT EXACTLY WHAT THE RAMIFICATIONS OF THE NEW ORDER ARE AND SEE HOW WE CAN OPERATE WITHIN THAT.
THERE ARE PROBABLY WAYS TO ADJUST THIS ROOM TO BE EQUALLY AS SAFE AS WE ARE NOW, AND THEN START ALLOWING SOME PUBLIC INTO THE ROOM AND SPACED CHAIRS.
YOU KNOW, WE'VE GOT THESE BIG PLASTIC THINGS BETWEEN US.
WE COULD DO THAT FROM THE PODIUM.
THERE'S PROBABLY SEVERAL DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THIS WE COULD PUT IN PLACE.
BUT I THINK THOSE ARE ITEMS TO BE DISCUSSED AS SOON AS WE GET THE RULINGS FROM OUR ATTORNEY.
[00:25:01]
AND IN GENERAL, THOUGH, I SAY WE JUST CONTINUE TO BE AS TRANSPARENT AS POSSIBLE WHILE TAKING CARE OF THE SECURITY AND SAFETY CONCERNS THAT WE'VE HAD SINCE LAST MARCH.WE DON'T WANT TO WE DON'T WANT TO OPEN THE GATE TO ANYTHING THAT'S RISKY AFTER BEING SAFE THIS LONG.
AND I THINK WE HAVE THE SAME EXPECTATIONS OF OUR SCHOOLS AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE FOLLOWING THIS TEA GUIDANCE.
I MEAN, BASICALLY, I WOULD PREFER IF WE COULD STAY LIKE THIS UNTIL EVERYBODY CAN BREATHE EASY AND GET OUT AND MOVE FREELY ABOUT THE COUNTRY, I THINK BEING SAFE IS THE WAY TO GO FORWARD.
JUST TO KIND OF ECHO SOME OF THE COMMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE.
BARRING ANY KIND OF LEGAL ISSUES THAT WE RUN INTO WITH MAKING ADJUSTMENTS, I THINK WE'LL ALSO HAVE TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT SENDING MIXED MESSAGES.
WE'RE GOING TO SAY THAT WE'RE GOING TO KEEP OUR EXISTING PROTOCOL FOR OUR SCHOOLS, BUT NOW WE'RE OK WITH CHANGING THINGS UP IN HERE.
WHAT MESSAGE ARE WE ACTUALLY SENDING? I THINK THAT WHAT WE'VE DONE TO THIS POINT HAS BEEN OUT OF THE ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION AND TO MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE ARE SAFE AND THAT THEY CAN REMAIN HEALTHY AND COMFORTABLE WITH THE SITUATION THAT WE HAVE HERE AND BEING FREE TO COME AND PARTICIPATE IN MEETINGS, AS MS. TALKED ABOUT HOW WE HAVE THINGS LAID OUT, I THINK THAT MAKING A DEVIATION FROM WHAT WE'RE CURRENTLY DOING TO ME DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, GIVEN THAT WE HAVEN'T HAD REALLY ANY ISSUES AND THAT WE'RE KEEPING WHAT WE HAVE IN PLACE IN OUR SCHOOLS.
SO I DON'T TAKE FOR GRANTED ANYBODY ELSE'S HEALTH OR SAFETY, YOU KNOW, PERSONALLY HAVEN'T EXPERIENCED COVID MYSELF.
I JUST KNOW THAT, YOU KNOW, THERE'S ELEMENTS OF THAT THAT I WOULD NOT WISH FOR ANYBODY.
AND I CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO TAKE THE RISK OF MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS IF WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY ISSUES TO DATE.
SO WE'RE GOOD WITH KEEPING THE PLANS TO THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR, WHICH WOULD BE THE END OF JUNE.
WE OK WITH THAT BOARD? OK, I WILL PROCEED THE SAME.
I WILL MAKE SURE THAT WE KEEP THE SAME PLACES WHERE WE DO LIVE STREAMING AND WE'LL FOLLOW THE SAME PROTOCOLS.
AS MS. REY MENTIONED, WE STILL WILL HAVE TO REVIEW THE LEGALITY OF MAINTAINING THE SPACE.
SO IF WE ADD THAT CAVEAT TO YOUR STATEMENT, THAT'D BE GREAT, BECAUSE AS MR. JOHNSON MENTIONED, WE DO HAVE MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WHO ARE CHOMPING AT THE BIT TO GET BACK IN THIS ROOM WITH US.
SO SHE WILL HAVE SOME LEGAL RENDERINGS OR AT LEAST A RULING TO PREPARE IN THE EVENT THAT THOSE INDIVIDUALS CONTACT THE STATE FOR AN ATTORNEY GENERAL'S RULING.
AND ONCE WE GET THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S RULING, THEN WE'LL INFORM THE BOARD.
SO WE WILL PLAN ON HAVING THIS SAME SET UP FOR OUR NEXT BOARD MEETING.
SINCE WE'RE BEING CLEAR, CLEAR ON WHAT WE'RE DOING, I WOULD ALSO LIKE IF WE ARE DOING ALL OF THIS, WE NEED TO REVISIT THE PROTOCOLS BECAUSE ALTHOUGH THE PUBLIC WANTS TO GET IN, THEY HAVE NOT BEEN RECEPTIVE TO OUR PROTOCOLS.
SO I BASICALLY THINK AND HOWEVER WE DO THIS, WE NEED TO HAVE STRICTER PROTOCOLS THAN WE HAD BEFORE, AS WE ALL KNOW.
SO I'M NOT FOR MOVING EVEN IN JUNE IF WE HAVE NOT IDENTIFIED WHAT OUR STRICT PROTOCOLS IS GOING TO BE.
AND IS NOT THAT SOME PEOPLE CAN COME IN THE FRONT AND SOME PEOPLE CAN COME IN THE BACK, IT'S KIND OF LIKE, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO? BECAUSE THEY ARE NOW COMING INTO OUR ENVIRONMENT.
WE DON'T KNOW IF THEY'RE VACCINATED.
SO IN TRANSPARENCY, ARE WE JUST GOING TO OPEN OURSELVES UP TO THE PUBLIC THAT HAVE TAKEN NO PRECAUTIONS TO COME TO VISIT WITH US.
JUST KIND OF A FINAL THOUGHT ON THIS.
I MEAN, I THINK TO AN EXTENT, AND I'M NOT BEING CRITICAL, THIS IS A GOOD DISCUSSION.
BUT I GUESS MY WHOLE POINT IS UNTIL WE KNOW WHAT THE LEGAL RAMIFICATIONS ARE, I THINK THIS DISCUSSION IS PREMATURE.
I MEAN, IF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL COMES BACK OR EVEN THE ATTORNEY GENERAL COME BACK SAYING, LISTEN, YOU'VE GOT TO LET PEOPLE IN THE ROOM, THEN WE NEED TO COME UP WITH A PLAN OF HOW WE'RE GOING TO LET PEOPLE IN THE ROOM.
IF THEY SAY, HEY, YOU'RE GOOD FOR NOW, THEN WE'RE GOOD FOR NOW.
I MEAN, BUT I THINK SO MUCH OF IT'S GOING TO BE DICTATED BY WHAT THEY SAY.
I MEAN, SO TO THAT EXTENT, I MEAN, WE CAN PONTIFICATE ON THIS ALL WE WANT TO, BUT IT'S REALLY KIND OF POINTLESS UNTIL WE HEAR A LITTLE BIT MORE FROM THAT.
BECAUSE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF WE SAID TODAY WE'RE GOING BACK TO VIRTUAL.
I MEAN, SO I MEAN, THE GOVERNOR CAN SIGN THESE EXECUTIVE ORDERS, BUT
[00:30:02]
THERE'S ALWAYS A BUNCH OF STUFF THAT HAS TO BE UNSPOOLED.AND UNFORTUNATELY, THAT FALLS ON THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE TO UNSPOOL IT.
THE GOVERNOR'S OFF DOING SOMETHING ELSE NOW.
BUT THEY HAVE TO COME BACK AND GET THAT SQUARED AWAY.
AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO FOLLOW WHATEVER GUIDANCE THEY GIVE UNTIL WE KNOW WE DON'T KNOW WHAT SANDBOX WE'RE PLAYING IN.
ANY OTHER COMMENTS ON THIS ISSUE, GUYS? ALL RIGHT.
[V.C. Action Items]
ALL RIGHT, WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ON TO ACTION ITEMS C 1, WHICH IS CONSIDER APPROVAL OF LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL HIGH SCHOOL, HVAC DUCT WORK REPLACEMENT PROJECT.MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, DR. LOPEZ, WANT TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL AND A SITUATION THAT HAS ARISED AT LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL WITH OUR HVAC DUCT WORK AT THE CAMPUS.
LATE LAST YEAR, WE RECEIVED A CALL THAT ONE OF OUR WALLS, OR I RECEIVED A CALL THAT ONE OF THE WALLS IN THE CLASSROOM WAS BUCKLING AND THAT THE BUILDING WAS GOING TO FALL DOWN.
SO I IMMEDIATELY LEFT THE MEETING THAT I WAS AT AND I HURRIED UP TO LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL, TOOK THE DROP CEILING OUT, LOOKED AND SAW WHAT I WHAT I SAW.
AND WHAT I FOUND WAS, NO, THE BUILDING WAS NOT FALLING DOWN.
THE BUILDING IS STRUCTURALLY SOUND AND WAS DEFINITELY NOT FALLING DOWN.
BUT WHAT HAPPENED WAS WE HAVE THE DUCTWORK, IT'S GOT SOME CHASES WHERE THE DUCTWORK SITS AND WE HAVE HIGH PRESSURE AND LOW PRESSURE DUCT THE HIGH PRESSURE DUCT.
AND ONE OF THESE AIR HANDLERS HAD RUPTURED WITHIN THE CHASE.
THAT BEING THE CASE, THE AIR FLOW FROM THE DUCT WAS PUSHING AGAINST THE WALL AND ACTUALLY CRACKED THE WALL.
SO SOMEONE GOT SCARED AND THOUGHT THE BUILDING WAS FALLING DOWN.
SINCE THEN, WE HAVE INVESTIGATED THE COMPLETE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM AT LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL.
AND WHAT WE HAVE FOUND IS THAT WE HAVE MULTIPLE AIR HANDLERS IN THAT CAMPUS THAT HAVE LOSS OF PRESSURE ON THE SUPPLY SIDE DUCTS.
WE HAVE A TOTAL OF NINE AIR HANDLERS THAT HAVE THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED SOME FORM OF AIR LOSS.
THAT BEING THE CASE, THE UNITS ARE WORKING HARDER TO CONTINUE TO SUPPORT BOTH COOLING AND HEATING WITHIN THE BUILDING.
AND THE BUILDING ITSELF IS NOT BEING CLIMATIZED CORRECTLY BECAUSE A LOT OF OUR AIR IS BEING LOST WITHIN THE CAVITY.
AND SO THIS PROJECT HERE IS A PROJECT TO GO BACK TO LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL AND TO REPLACE ALL OF THE HIGH PRESSURE DUCT BETWEEN THE AIR HANDLERS.
THERE'S NINE OF THEM AND BETWEEN THE AIR HANDLERS AND THE VARIABLE AIR VOLUME UNITS.
THOSE ARE THE UNITS THAT ACTUALLY TAKE THE AIR AND DISTRIBUTE THE AIR INTO SPECIFIC CLASSROOMS. SO THOSE THE DUCT WORK BETWEEN THE THE PAV UNITS AND THE CLASSROOM WOULD NOT BE REPLACED.
IT'S ONLY THE DUCTWORK THAT'S BEING REPLACED BETWEEN THE VAVS AND THE AIR HANDLERS AND ATTACHED TO THIS.
TO THIS ACTION ITEM IS A REPORT THAT WE COMMISSIONED.
WE COMMISSIONED A REPORT FROM EMA, WHICH IS A ENGINEERING AND CONSULTING FIRM THAT THE DISTRICT USES QUITE A BIT.
AND WE ASKED EMA TO GO AND INVESTIGATE LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL TO DETERMINE HOW MANY UNITS WERE ACTUALLY HAVING A PROBLEM.
AND SO I SHARE WITH YOU THAT WE HAVE A WE HAVE A STUDY AND IT'S IN YOUR PACKET THERE.
WE WENT AHEAD AND ATTACHED IT THERE.
SO IF ANYBODY HAD ANY QUESTIONS ON WHAT WE'RE ACTUALLY TALKING ABOUT, IT'S IN THE STUDY.
BUT TO SUMMARIZE, THERE'S NINE AIR HANDLERS THAT NEED THE THE DUCTWORK REPLACED.
AND IN ORDER TO GET THE WORK DONE, IT'S GOING TO BE A TOTAL COST.
WE HAVE WE HAVE WE'VE NOT BID THIS OUT BECAUSE THE PROJECT HASN'T BEEN APPROVED, BUT WE ESTIMATE THE PROJECT IS GOING TO COST US PROJECT COST ABOUT SEVEN HUNDRED NINETY SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS TO REPLACE ALL OF THE DUCTWORK WITHIN
[00:35:01]
THAT BUILDING.THAT NUMBER INCLUDES SOME DESIGN COST, WHICH IS ALSO INCLUDED IN THAT NUMBER.
AND WE'RE LOOKING AT UTILIZING FUND 651 IN ORDER TO GET THIS WORK DONE.
SO TO SUMMARIZE WHERE I'M AT, THERE'S NINE AIR HANDLERS AND THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROJECT, THERE'S ACTUALLY ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FOUR VARIABLE AIR VOLUME UNITS THAT WE HAVE TO REPLACE DUCTWORK TO.
SO THAT'S QUITE A BIT OF DUCT WORK THAT WE HAVE TO REPLACE.
AND AS FAR AS TIMING GOES FOR THIS PROJECT, THE CRITICAL NATURE OF THE PROJECT.
WE ESTIMATE TWO MONTHS OF CONSTRUCTION.
WE NEED TO GET THE PROJECT DONE PRIOR TO STUDENTS COMING BACK.
OUR NEW CALENDAR THAT WE HAVE FOR OUR 2021-2022 SCHOOL YEAR INDICATES STUDENTS ARE COMING BACK ON AUGUST THE 2ND.
SO DOESN'T GIVE US A LOT OF TIME BETWEEN THE ACTUAL DESIGNING OF THE WORK AND THEN PUTTING IT OUT ON THE STREET, GETTING BIDS BACK AND GETTING APPROVAL, CONSTRUCTION APPROVAL FROM THE BOARD AND WE'LL GET THIS DONE.
SO WE ESTIMATE ABOUT TWO MONTHS OF CONSTRUCTION TIME.
JAVIER, WHAT DOES THE AHU STAND FOR AND ALSO CFM AND WHAT ARE THOSE? OK, SO THE AHUS ARE THE AIR HANDLING UNITS, THOSE ARE THE UNITS THAT SIT.
WE HAVE ABOVE THE ON TOP OF THE ROOF OF LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL.
WE HAVE THEY'RE HOUSES, WE CALL THEM PENTHOUSES.
SOME PEOPLE CALL THEM DOG HOUSES.
SO YOU SEE THE TERM IS INTERCHANGEABLE.
BUT A DOGHOUSE OR A PENTHOUSE, THAT'S WHERE THE UNITS ACTUALLY RESIDE.
AND SO WE HAVE FOUR OF THOSE AND THE AIR HANDLERS SIT WITHIN THAT AREA.
CFMS IS YOUR HELP ME OUT HERE, GARY.
IT S CUBIC FEET PER MINUTE IS ACTUALLY THE CFM.
THAT'S HOW YOU MEASURE AIRFLOW.
SO EACH REGISTER IS DESIGNED FOR EITHER 100, 200, 300 CFMS. THAT'S YOUR CUBIC FEET PER MINUTE OF AIRFLOW THAT YOU'RE GETTING THROUGHOUT THAT DIFFUSER.
YEAH RECITE FOR ME AGAIN, I'M ASSUMING THESE ARE THE ORIGINAL DUCTS THAT WERE WITH THE SCHOOL WHEN IT WAS BUILT, IS THAT CORRECT? OR ARE THESE THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH THIS NEW SYSTEM? YES, SIR.
SO THE DUCT WORK THAT IS THERE THAT'S ORIGINAL TO THE BUILDING.
THE BUILDING WAS BUILT IN 1976.
THIS IS A HIGH PRESSURE DUCT THAT WAS NOT REPLACED AS PART OF THE BOND PROGRAM.
THE BOND PROGRAM REPLACED THE AIR HANDLERS AND REPLACED THE VARIABLE AIR VOLUME UNITS.
SO WHAT WOULD LEAD TO THEM FAILING AT THIS POINT AFTER ALL THIS TIME? IS IT JUST THE AGE OF THE DUCT OR THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE? WAS THE UNIT THAT WE REPLACED IT WITH PUTTING OUT MORE VOLUME OR CFMS OR MORE PRESSURE THAN THE DESIGN OF THE PREVIOUS UNIT? THAT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION, SIR.
THE CULPRIT, WHAT WOULD BE THE CULPRIT THAT'S CAUSED THIS TO HAPPEN.
ONE OF THE CULPRITS THAT I LOOK AT IS THE AGE OF THE DUCT WORK THAT EXISTS WITHIN THIS FACILITY.
THIS IS AGAIN, THE FACILITY WAS BUILT IN 1976.
AND LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE WITHIN A FACILITY, EVERYTHING HAS A LIFE EXPECTANCY.
AND SO THAT DUCTWORK HAS REACHED ITS END OF LIFE.
AND SO IT DOES TEND TO START TO CRACK, START TO CREATE SEAMS WHEN YOU GET SEAMS IN THERE YOU START TO LOSE AIR.
SO IT'S NOT REALLY RELATED TO ANY UPGRADES WE DID WITH THE HVA SYSTEM HVAC SYSTEM RECENTLY.
WE CANNOT POINT TO ANYTHING THAT WAS DONE WITHIN THE BOND PROGRAM THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THIS CONDITION.
EVERYTHING THAT WE SEE FROM LOOKING AT THE DUCTWORK, IT LOOKS AS THE DUCT WORK ITSELF HAD REACHED THE END OF LIFE AND AND WAS NOT REPLACED.
AND SO BUT IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED NOW.
DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER SCHOOLS APPROXIMATELY REACHING THIS AGE THAT WE NEED TO CHECK? JUST I MEAN, IT WOULD SEEM TO ME THAT THE HVAC SYSTEM, WHEN IT WAS LEAKING, WAS EXTREMELY INEFFICIENT, LEADING TO HIGHER COST AND LOTS OF THINGS.
SO I JUST WONDER IF THERE'S ANY OTHER TROUBLESHOOTING WE NEED TO DO WITH OTHER CAMPUSES? THIS HAS BEEN TICKLER THAT'S BEEN PUT ON MY RADAR FOR ALL THE OTHER CAMPUSES THAT WE HAVE, SIR, NOT ONLY HIGH SCHOOLS BUT MIDDLE SCHOOLS AND ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.
WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE DONE WITHIN THE BOND PROGRAM IS WE HAD A SEVERAL SCHOOLS THAT WERE ON A CHILLER SYSTEM THAT WOULD HAVE AIR HANDLERS DURING THE BOND WE REMOVED, ESPECIALLY IN THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.
WE REMOVED A LOT OF THE CHILLERS THAT WOULD HAVE HAD AIR HANDLERS AND THIS TYPE
[00:40:05]
OF DUCTWORK WORK.ALL OF THAT WAS TAKEN OUT AS PART OF THE BOND.
AND WE WENT BACK WITH RTUS, WHICH IS ROOFTOP UNITS AND SO MUCH MORE EFFICIENT UNITS.
SO A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF WORK WAS DONE DURING THE BOND PROGRAM TO REMEDIATE THIS TYPE OF ISSUE FROM THE UNIT ALL THE WAY TO THE DIFFUSER IN THE WALL.
AND, YOU KNOW, I GET THE CONCERN OVER THE LEAKING.
BUT TO ME, WE'VE DONE A LOT OF WORK ON, I KNOW THIS BOARD HAS IN THE LAST THREE YEARS, DONE A LOT OF WORK TO INCREASE OUR EFFICIENCY WITH OUR OPERATIONS, ESPECIALLY WITH THERMOSTATS AND ALL THE DIFFERENT CONTROLS THAT WE PUT IN THE SYSTEMS, THE REPLACEMENTS, THE NEW ONES.
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE NOT LOSING THE EFFICIENCY BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE THE PROPER DUCTING SYSTEM TO KIND OF COMPLETE THE DEAL.
IF THEY'RE IF WE HAVE OTHER CAMPUSES THAT WE NEED TO EXAMINE, I WOULD HOPE WE DO THAT BEFORE IT'S FOR IT'S A PROBLEM.
THAT IS PART OF THAT IS PART OF OUR ACTION ITEMS TO MOVE FORWARD.
ONE OF THE QUESTIONS ON THE REMARKS THAT I SEE ON PAGE 48 AND 49, WHY IS THE TRAVERSE CFM SUCH A VARIANCE ON EACH ONE OF THESE PARTICULAR AREAS, DO YOU UNDERSTAND? YES, SIR.
I DO UNDERSTAND WHAT I DO UNDERSTAND YOUR QUESTION.
AND WHAT I LIKE TO DO IS IF THE BOARD'S OK WITH THIS, I'D LIKE TO ASK THE REPRESENTATIVE FROM EMA ENGINEERING FIRM.
IF YOU COME UP TO THE PODIUM AND ANSWER YOUR SPECIFIC QUESTION, SIR.
I'M GARY BRISTOW WITH EMA AND I APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH THE DISTRICT WE HAVE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS.
WOULD YOU MIND REPEATING THE QUESTION? YES, I'M LOOKING AT, LET'S SAY FOR AN EXAMPLE.
HHU-C3 THE COIL IS TWELVE THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED AND FOUR.
AND THEN YOU GO TO AHU-C5 SEE AND IT'S SIX THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED SIXTY EIGHT.
QUITE A BIT OF VARIANCE AS FAR AS.
IT HAS TO DO WITH THE AREA THAT SERVED.
THEY SERVE CLASSROOM, ONE OF THE AIR HANDLERS SERVE THE ADMINISTRATION AREA.
SO IT'S GOT 20 CLASSROOMS ON IT.
IT'S GOING TO BE LARGER THAN ONE THAT HAS 15 CLASSROOMS ON IT.
IT'S JUST A VARIANCE OF HOW BIG THE AREA OF WHICH AIR HANDLER SERVES.
ANYTHING ELSE FRO JAVIER BOARD? I GUESS THIS ITEM WILL BE PLACED AS AN ACTION ITEM ON THE NEXT BOARD AGENDA.
AND MOVING ON TO THE NEXT ACTION ITEM 2, CONSIDER APPROVAL OF JOB ORDER CONTRACTOR FOR HVAC EQUIPMENT AND FINE ARTS ACOUSTICAL SOUND PANELS FOR O'BANION MIDDLE SCHOOL, FINE ARTS ADDITION AND RENOVATIONS FOR THE 2014 BOND PROGRAM.
SO THIS ACTION ITEM IS TO TALK ABOUT THIS IS ONE OF THE FINAL ITEMS THAT WE NEED TO DO TO TO FINISH UP O'BANION MIDDLE SCHOOL.
SO A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND AT O'BANION.
WE HAVE WE HIRED PHILIPS MAY AS A CONTRACTOR AND ALLIANCE ARCHITECTS AS THE ARCHITECT FOR THAT PROJECT.
THE WORK THERE IS BASICALLY NINETY FIVE, EXCUSE ME, ABOUT NINETY EIGHT PERCENT DONE.
THE ONLY THING WE'RE HAVING TO DO IS WRAPPING UP A COUPLE OF PUNCH LIST ITEMS, TWO THINGS THAT WERE NOT ACTUALLY CALLED OUT FOR IN THE DRAWINGS FOR THAT PROJECT AND WANTED TO BRING THIS TO THE BOARD TO ACTUALLY APPROVE TO GET DONE.
USED TO BE THE FORMER CHOIR ROOM.
PART OF THE DRAWINGS WERE TO CONVERT THAT CHOIR ROOM INTO CLASSROOMS. WE DID THAT AND WE MOVED.
SO THE CHOIR ACTUALLY MOVED TO THE OLD TO THE OLD BAND HALL AND BAND MOVED INTO A NEW BAND HALL.
SO IT WAS KIND OF A DOMINO EFFECT THERE.
THE FOUR CLASSROOMS THAT ARE THERE ARE CURRENTLY SERVED BY A AIR CONDITIONER THAT WAS DESIGNED FOR A OPEN SPACE CHOIR HALL.
THE DRAWINGS DID NOT INDICATE CHANGING THAT SPACE.
SO WHAT THAT MEANS IS THAT THE UNIT THAT'S THERE DOES NOT PROPERLY SERVE THE CLASSROOMS THAT WHERE THE STUDENTS ARE IN NOW.
SO THIS IS ABOUT ONE HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS TO HAVE A JOB ORDER CONTRACTOR COME IN AND RUN NEW RTUS, THREE RTUS, ALONG WITH DUCTWORK TO SERVICE
[00:45:05]
THIS AREA OF THE BUILDING.THE OTHER ITEM IS ACOUSTICAL PANELS FOR THE BAND HALL AND THE CHOIR ROOMS. THOSE ALSO WERE NOT PART OF THE CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS WHEN THEY WERE ISSUED.
BOTH OF THESE ITEMS WERE, FROM A DRAWING PERSPECTIVE, WERE MISSED IN THE INITIAL DRAWINGS THAT WENT OUT.
WHEN I FOUND THIS INFORMATION OUT, I HAD A MEETING WITH THE ARCHITECT AND I WANTED TO HAVE A DISCUSSION AS TO WHAT DID WE DO, HOW DID WE MISS IT? THE ARCHITECT SAID, YOU KNOW, IT WAS A MISS ON THEIR PART.
SO WHAT THEY HAVE DONE IS THE ARCHITECT HAS COME BACK AND THEY HAVE ACTUALLY DESIGNED BOTH THE EQUIPMENT AND HAVE ACTUALLY DESIGNED THE ACOUSTICAL PANELS FOR THAT SPACE WITH NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE TO THE DISTRICT.
THEY DID THE ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS FOR THAT.
AND WE HAVE SUBMITTED THOSE OVER TO A JOB ORDER CONTRACTOR TO HAVE HIM PERFORM THE WORK.
AND SO WHAT WE'RE ASKING FOR IS THE APPROVAL TO TO MOVE THIS PROJECT FORWARD, TO MOVE THIS PIECE OF THE PROJECT FORWARD WITH A JOB ORDER CONTRACTOR.
ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FOR THIS? SEEING NONE, WE'LL MOVE ON TO THE NEXT ITEM, WHICH IS AN INCREASE IN A CONTRACT CONTRACT 500-4.4-19 CONSIDER APPROVAL OF INCREASE IN THE PROJECT OWNER CONTINGENCY AMOUNT FOR COYLE MIDDLE SCHOOL, FINE ARTS ADDITION AND RENOVATIONS 2014 BOND PROGRAM.
OR DID I SKIPPED ONE? I SKIPPED ONE.
OK, WELL WE'LL GET TO THAT ONE IN A MINUTE, BUT LET'S INSTEAD GO IN ORDER OF THE AGENDA, IF I CAN READ PROPERLY AND THAT'LL BE ITEM THREE, WHICH IS RENEWAL OF CONTRACT 204-16 CONSIDER AN EXTENSION OF TEST AND BALANCE SERVICES.
FACILITIES CHAIR JOHNSON, FACILITIES COMMITTEE, BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND DR. LOPEZ, GOOD TO BE HERE THIS AFTERNOON, AS JAVIER FERNANDEZ SPOKE ABOUT EARLIER IN TWO OF HIS PREVIOUS PRESENTATIONS OUR TESTS AND BALANCE CONTRACT IS UP FOR RENEWAL.
WE'RE ASKING THE BOARD TO CONSIDER A ONE YEAR WITH ONE ADDITIONAL OPTION.
AND THIS IS TO BASICALLY CLOSE OUT THE 2014 BOND PROGRAM AND ALSO TO ADDRESS ANY OUTSTANDING HVAC TESTS AND BALANCING LIKE THE LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL PROJECT THAT WE JUST SPOKE ABOUT, THE ORIGINAL THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT THAT WENT OUT, WHICH WAS FOR ONE POINT THREE DOLLARS MILLION.
THE CONTRACT HAS EXPIRED AND WE ARE GOING TO REDUCE THAT AMOUNT, NOT TO EXCEED AND NOT TO EXCEED FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND FOR THIS YEAR.
WE'RE JUST ASKING FOR APPROVAL FOR THESE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES.
ANY QUESTIONS? POINT OF CLARIFICATION, JUST REAL QUICK, ON THE AGENDA ITEM, I HAD TROUBLE FIGURING OUT WHAT WE WERE TESTING AND BALANCING.
MAY BE GOOD TO INCLUDE THAT IN THE AGENDA ITEMS, ESPECIALLY FOR THE PUBLIC TO SEE EXACTLY WHAT IT IS.
BUT WOULD YOU MIND STATING AGAIN WHAT IT IS THAT WE'RE TESTING AND BALANCING? YES.
WHAT WE'RE TESTING IS THE HVAC SYSTEMS, AS WE JUST REFERENCED THE THE LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL, SOON AS THE NEW DUCT WORK IS IN PLACE AND THE COMPONENT TO GO IN THAT SYSTEM, WE HAVE THESE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES COME IN AND THEY USE TESTING MEASURING TOOLS TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE THE RIGHT CFM AND THE RIGHT FLOW GOING THROUGH THE DUCTS.
SO IT'S FOR OUR HVAC SYSTEMS. MR. SELDERS.
IS THIS FOR MULTIPLE SYSTEMS OR JUST ONE SYSTEM? FOR MULTIPLE SYSTEMS ACROSS THE DISTRICT.
SO ARE WE ARE ANTICIPATING THAT WITH THE ISSUE THAT WE JUST HEARD ABOUT FROM LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL THAT WE MIGHT SEE SOME OTHER ISSUES AT OTHER CAMPUSES THAT WE MIGHT HAVE TO ADDRESS AS A RESULT OF IMBALANCES.
AS MR. FERNANDEZ SAYS, HE'S WORKING ON CERTAIN PROJECTS THAT AT TIMES WE WILL NEED WE'LL NEED THESE SERVICES IF IT'S IN ON THE MAINTENANCE SIDES AS A REPAIR OR A PROJECT THAT COMES FORWARD FOR Y'ALL'S APPROVAL, THE BOARD'S APPROVAL FOR A FUTURE PROJECT.
IS IT POSSIBLE FOR THESE SERVICES.
I KNOW THAT THEY CAN GIVE SOME INDICATION ON THE LIKELIHOOD OF A PROBLEM CROPPING UP, YOU KNOW, ANTICIPATORY IN NATURE IN TERMS OF HOW THEY DO THE TESTING.
IS THAT SOMETHING THAT'S A PART OF THE PLAN THAT YOU GUYS ARE DOING AS YOU GO AND
[00:50:01]
YOU'RE DOING UTILIZING THESE TESTS AND BALANCE SERVICES FOR THESE HVAC SYSTEMS? IT'S KIND OF IT'S AS THESE ISSUES COME UP THROUGH A MAINTENANCE WORK ORDER.OUR IN-HOUSE TECHNICIANS GO OUT, RESEARCH THE ISSUES, THEN THEY COME BACK AND A CONVERSATION WITH ME AND MR. FERNANDEZ, WHAT THEY FOUND IN THESE IN THESE DIFFERENT SITUATIONS.
AND AT THAT TIME, IF WE SEE THAT WE NEED TO BRING IN A TEST AND BALANCING COMPANY AND VERIFY SOME OF THESE CALCULATIONS, ALL THESE ENGINEERING CALCULATIONS, THAT'S WHEN WE REACH OUT TO THOSE SERVICES.
SO PRETTY MUCH ON AN AS NEEDED BASIS.
IT'S ON AN AS NEEDED BASIS, BASICALLY.
LET ME MAKE SURE THAT I UNDERSTAND THIS VERY CLOSE HERE.
THESE THREE FIRMS [INAUDIBLE] ENGINEERING AND TESTING DELTA T AND CAMPOS ENGINEERING.
ARE WE CONTRACTING THEM TO GO OUT AND INVESTIGATE AND RUN TESTS NOW? AND IF THERE IS, WHAT KIND OF TIMELINE ARE WE LOOKING AT AS FAR AS FINDING OUT IF WE HAVE OTHER ISSUES LIKE WE HAVE AT LAKEVIEW, OR IS THAT WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT HERE OR AM I WAY OFF BASE? YOU'RE NOT OFF BASE, YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
BUT THE ONLY TIMES WE WOULD BE CALLING ONE OF THESE FIRMS IS IF WE'RE HAVING EXPERIENCE WITH SOME AREAS THAT ARE NOT COOLING CORRECTLY.
AND WE FEEL THAT THE AIR DISTRIBUTION IN THOSE AREAS WERE NOT CALCULATED CORRECTLY OR IT'S NOT BEING DISTRIBUTED CORRECTLY, THEN WE WILL REACH OUT TO THESE SERVICES.
BUT NO, THEY'RE NOT GOING OUT AND DOING WE DON'T HAVE ANY PROJECTS WHERE THEY'RE GOING OUT AND DOING ANY KIND OF RESEARCH OR LOOKING AT DIFFERENT SCHOOL BUILDINGS.
SO I GUESS ONE THING THAT THE QUESTION MARK JUST KIND OF COMES UP IN MY BRAIN IS THAT AND OUR BUILDINGS ARE VERY, VERY OLD AS IT IS.
AS YOU'RE AWARE OF AND I'M WONDERING WE DON'T HAVE.
SO WE DON'T HAVE ANYBODY AS FAR AS OUR PARTICULAR MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT THAT'S CHECKING THIS ON ON A SCHEDULE OF ANY KIND, IS THAT CORRECT? WE WE HAVE CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW, MR. BEACH, WE'VE IMPLEMENTED A PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM.
PART OF THE PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM IS WHEN YOU GO OUT TO A LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL OR A SCHOOL WITH A LARGE PLANT, THERE'S CERTAIN COMPONENTS THAT WE CHECK.
ONE IS THE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM, WHICH WHERE THE AIRFLOW GOES THROUGH.
SO THERE HAS TO BE SOME VISUALS TO LOOK AT THE AIRFLOW.
THEY HAVE TO ALSO LOOK AT THE AIR HANDLERS.
THEY HAVE TO LOOK AT THE COILS, A LOT OF THINGS.
SO A LOT OF THE ISSUES THAT ARISE COME FROM OUR HVAC DEPARTMENT.
AND IT'S GREAT THAT WE STARTED THIS PROGRAM BECAUSE IT KIND OF GETS US A FOOT AHEAD OF THE ISSUE.
SO WE DON'T HAVE A MAJOR BREAK DOWN AND THEN WE CAN HAVE A SCHOOL HAD TO BRING IN A TEMPORARY CHILLER OR A TEMPORARY COOLING SYSTEM.
SO WE'RE NOT I WISH WE COULD BE FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD TO BE MORE PROACTIVE, BUT WE ARE ADDRESSING IN A PROACTIVE APPROACH AS WE MOVE FORWARD AS A DISTRICT IN THE MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT.
DR. RINGO, JUST REAL QUICK, ANY OTHER ITEMS THAT COME FORTH LIKE THIS THAT INVOLVE ADDITIONAL EXPENSE OR THOSE THINGS THAT YOU THINK WOULD BE FOR THIS BUDGET CYCLE, OR WOULD THEY BE THINGS BUILT INTO THE NEXT BUDGET CYCLE? YOU HAVE ANY WAY OF KNOWING? I DO NOT.
DEPENDS ON WHAT FUND THEY'RE IN.
SO, FOR EXAMPLE, THIS WOULD BE COMING.
IT IS WITHIN THE BUDGET OF THAT PROJECT 2 FOR BOND FUNDS.
SO THIS BUDGET CYCLE AND THE NEXT ONE IT'S NOT GOING TO IMPACT IT.
BUT AS MR. JAVIER FERNANDEZ PRESENTED AS THOSE ARE DISCOVERED OR TESTS ARE DONE AND THE NEED, THEY WOULD EITHER BE BROUGHT FORWARD TO THE FACILITIES COMMITTEE OR ADDED TO THAT LIST OF PROJECTS FOR THE NEXT BOND PROGRAM TO GET DONE AND SOME ITEMS WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO WAIT TO NEXT BOND PROGRAM, FOR EXAMPLE, LCHS THE HVAC DUCT WORK.
THAT WOULD NEED TO BE DONE NOW.
BUT WE WOULD BRING EACH ONE OF THOSE FORWARD WHEN KNOWN.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. GONZALES.
ALL RIGHT, MOVING BACK TO ITEM FOUR, WHICH IS INCREASE THE CONTRACT 500-4.4-19 AND CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AN INCREASE IN THE PROJECT OWNER CONTINGENCY AMOUNT FOR COYLE MIDDLE SCHOOL FINE ARTS ADDITIONS AND RENOVATIONS.
COMMITTEE CHAIR JOHNSON, MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.
AND DR. LOPEZ, THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME THIS AFTERNOON.
THIS IS A RECOMMENDATION FOR A CHANGE ORDER NUMBER TWO FOR COYLE MIDDLE SCHOOL.
THIS IS A VERY LAST ITEM THAT NEEDS TO GET RESOLVED FOR COYLE.
WE AGAIN, DURING THE BOND UPDATE PRESENTATION I SHARED THAT COYLED MIDDLE SCHOOL IS PRETTY MUCH DONE.
I SHARED SOME OF THE PHOTOS THAT WERE DONE WITH THE EXTERIOR.
[00:55:02]
BUT WE HAVE IS WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF OUTSTANDING ITEMS THAT NEED TO GET FINISHED UP AND WE JUST NEED TO GET APPROVAL TO INCREASE THE CONTRACT ABOUT THIRTY ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS TO CLOSE THAT PROJECT OUT.SO UPON APPROVAL WE'LL INCREASE THE CONTRACT AWARD TO THE CONTRACTOR AND EXECUTE THIS DOLLARS WILL BE OWNERS CONTINGENCY AMOUNT FOR THAT WORK.
DO YOU THINK THAT'S A GOOD AMOUNT? I MEAN, IS THAT A LEGITIMATE.
SO IF YOU ONE OF THE MEMORANDUMS THAT I HAVE ATTACHED ALSO WITHIN BEHIND THE ACTION ITEM EXCUSE ME, BEHIND THE AGENDA ITEM IS A MEMO THAT I'VE DRAFTED.
IT KIND OF SUMMARIZES WHERE THE AMOUNT OF THE CONTRACT AWARD ORIGINALLY CHANGE ORDER NUMBER ONE, WHICH WAS PREVIOUSLY APPROVED.
AND THIS SECOND CHANGE ORDER, WHICH IS FOR THIRTY ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS, TWO HUNDRED AND TEN DOLLARS, WHICH WOULD SATISFY ALL OF THE OUTSTANDING ISSUES THAT WE NEED TO RESOLVE THERE AT COLLINS, EXCUSE ME, AT COYLE MIDDLE SCHOOL.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? NONE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. FERNANDEZ.
THAT'LL BE PLACED ON AN ITEM FOR THE NEXT BOARD MEETING.
AND THAT TAKES US TO AGENDA ITEM SIX, EXECUTIVE SESSION MS. HOGAN, IS THERE ANY NEED FOR AN EXECUTIVE SESSION? THEN THAT TAKES US TO ITEM SEVEN, WHICH IS ADJOURNMENT.
DO I HAVE A MOTION TO ADJOURN THE COMMITTEE MEETING? WE ARE ADJOURNED AT 3:58.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
