[00:00:01] THANK YOU. IT IS 4:30 AND I'M CALLING TO ORDER THE GARLAND INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT BOARD OF TRUSTEES SPECIAL BOARD BOND COMMITTEE MEETING FOR TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, [I. Call to Order and Determination of Quorum ] 2024. I DETERMINED THAT A QUORUM IS PRESENT AND WE WILL PROCEED WITH OUR AGENDA. KNOW THAT I HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANY PUBLIC FORUM COMMENT CARDS. DOCTOR LOPEZ, DO YOU HAVE ANY? NO, SIR. THANK YOU. [III. Superintendent's Message] IT'S TIME FOR YOUR SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE. THANK YOU. DURING THE BOND MEETING, YOU'RE GOING TO SEE SOME UPDATES. ONE OF THE THINGS I WANTED TO BRING THE BOARD BACK TO WAS WE'VE DONE A LOT OF GREAT THINGS, BUT WHEN WE DID OUR BASEBALL FIELDS, THEY WEREN'T ENTIRELY COMPLETE. YOU'RE GOING TO SEE SOME OF THE FINISHED ASPECTS THAT WE PUT, LIKE THE CANOPY COVERING. I ALSO WANT THE BOARD TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE TIMELINES AS THINGS ROLL OUT, ESPECIALLY WHEN CONSTRUCTION DEMOLITION IS STARTING. SO THEN THAT WAY YOU COULD START THINKING VISUALLY. THINKING ABOUT THE BIG PROJECTS THAT ARE COMING ABOUT IN PARTICULAR THE HILLSIDE LOCATION AND THE, FREEMAN LOCATION HAS ALREADY BEEN FENCED OFF, AND WE'RE READY TO START DEMOLITION. SO ONCE THAT GETS STARTED, IT'S GOING TO BE PARDON OUR DUST BECAUSE THINGS ARE REALLY COMING THROUGH. THERE'S GOING TO BE THREE MOVING PARTS THAT I WANT YOU TO LOOK AT, PARTICULARLY AT ONE CAMPUS, WHICH IS GOING TO BE LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL. LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL IS GOING TO BE GOING THROUGH A LOT OF TRANSFORMATION IN THE NEXT TWO YEARS, AND IT'S ALL HITTING AT ONE TIME. SO WE, OF COURSE, ARE DOING THE BASEBALL SOFTBALL FIELDS THAT ARE GOING TO BE OUT THERE. WE'RE DOING THE INDOOR FACILITY THAT'S GOING TO BE OUT THERE, AND THEN WE'RE DOING THE NEW FACADE THAT'S GOING TO BE HOSTING THE 20 CLASSROOMS PLUS OUR OFFICE SPACE. SO LOOK AT THOSE TIMELINES BECAUSE WE'VE DONE SOME THINGS IN THE PAST WHERE WE BOOK THINGS AT LAKEVIEW, LIKE OUR NAACP RALLY, AND WE NOW HAVE TO BE COGNIZANT THAT WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO HOLD THAT. SO WHEN PEOPLE COME TO US AND SAY, OH, I LOVE THAT LOCATION, IT WORKED OUT FOR US, WE MIGHT HAVE TO TELL THEM, LOOK, FOR THE NEXT FEW YEARS, IT'S GOING TO BE ABOUT A TWO YEAR PARDON OUR DUST PROGRAM AT LAKEVIEW. LET'S LOOK AT OTHER AREAS IN THE TRI-CITY AREA TO HOST THOSE EVENTS THAT AREN'T GOING TO BE AS IMPACTED. COOL. THANK YOU. [IV.A. Receive Presentation on Bond 2023 Program Summary Update – Javier Fernandez] WE'LL NOW MOVE TO 4 INFORMATION ITEMS. FOUR A RECEIVE PRESENTATION ON BOND 2023 PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE. MR. FERNANDEZ. THANK YOU. BOARD PRESIDENT SELDERS. MEMBERS OF THE BOARD. DOCTOR LOPEZ, HERE TODAY TO PRESENT TO YOU THE BOND PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE FOR BOND 2023, OUR SEPTEMBER UPDATE. A RECAP. TO RECAP, THE BOND IS MADE UP OF THREE DISTINCT PROPOSITIONS A, B, AND C. YOU CAN SEE THE DOLLARS THERE FOR A TOTAL OF 1.279 BILLION. AND THIS IS OUR TIMELINE FOR THE BOND PROGRAM, AS DOCTOR LOPEZ ALLUDED TO. THIS SHOWS PHASES TWO, THREE FOURS AND FIVES SHOWS WHERE WE'RE AT IN THE PROCESS OF DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION AND CLOSEOUT. YOU CAN SEE THIS CARRIES US ALL THE WAY THROUGH 2028. AN UPDATE ON THE BASEBALL SOFTBALL FIELDS ITS PHASE ONE BID PACK ONE FOR THE PROGRAM PROJECT SUMMARY. OUR NAAMAN FOREST, ROWLETT AND SACHSE. WE HAVE COMPLETED, AS DOCTOR LOPEZ SHARED EARLIER, THE CANOPIES ARE COMPLETE FOR ALL OF THOSE. THE SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION WAS PERFORMED AND THE WANTED TO CALL YOUR ATTENTION. THE BASEBALL FOUL POLES AT NAAMAN FOREST THAT IS BEING REPLACED AND ALONG WITH SOME ADDITIONAL SIDEWALKS, WE'VE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF HAVING SOME SAVINGS WITHIN THE PROJECT AND ARE MOVING FORWARD WITH UTILIZING THOSE SAVINGS TO TO DO THOSE ADDITIONAL SMALL IMPROVEMENTS WHILE WE ARE THERE. NAAMAN FOREST HIGH SCHOOL IRRIGATION, THOSE REPAIRS ONCE THE SIDEWALKS GET DONE, WE WILL FINISH THOSE REPAIRS THERE. WE HAD REPAIRS AT ROWLETT AND SACHSE, AND AS YOU RECALL, THOSE HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF. AND SO WE FULLY EXPECT TO BE FINISHING THAT HERE WITHIN THE NEXT 30 DAYS. PART TWO, THE LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL NORTH, GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL, SOUTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL. WE ARE WELL ON OUR WAY OF DOING GRADING WITH THAT PROJECT. THE DEMOLITION OF THE DUGOUTS HAS PROGRESSED. AND THEN PART THREE, THE GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL PROJECT THAT PIECE WE ARE LOOKING TO DO DEMOLITION PROCUREMENT METHOD. WE PLAN ON PRESENTING THAT TO THE OCTOBER 8TH BOARD SPECIAL MEETING. LET ME STEP A LITTLE BIT BACK ON THAT. WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THERE IS WE HAVE SOME EXISTING FACILITIES WHERE THIS FIELD IS GOING TO BE LOCATED, WHERE THESE FIELDS ARE GOING TO BE LOCATED, THAT WE WILL HAVE TO [00:05:08] DEMO. AND SO WE'RE WORKING WITH THE ARCHITECTURAL FIRM TO PUT TOGETHER A PACKAGE THAT WE CAN PRESENT TO THE BOARD. THIS WILL BE CONSIDERED A CSP. AND SO WE'LL BRING THAT TO THE OCTOBER BOARD. AS DOCTOR LOPEZ WAS ALLUDING HERE, THE CANOPIES THAT WE HAVE FOR NAAMAN FOREST HIGH SCHOOL, THIS IS A SOFTBALL FIELD. WE'VE DONE CANOPIES AT BOTH THE HOME SIDE AND THE VISITOR SIDE, ENSURING THAT OUR SPECTATORS HAVE HAVE AMPLE COVERAGE. THIS IS NAAMAN FOREST HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL. YOU CAN SEE THE VISITOR AND THE HOME FIELD. I WANTED TO CALL YOUR ATTENTION TO WHEN THESE PICTURES DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE. THE COVERING DOES GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FIRST SET OF BLEACHERS. YOU MAY LOOK AT THAT AND SAY, WELL, THERE'S SOME SHADING THERE, AND IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THE FRONT BLEACHERS ARE COVERED. THEY ACTUALLY ARE. THE CANTILEVER ARM GOES AND EXTENDS ALL THE WAY THROUGH TO THE FRONT SIDE, SO THEY ARE COVERED. THESE ARE THE ROWLETT HIGH SCHOOL SOFTBALL. YOU CAN SEE THE CANOPIES ARE A LITTLE BIT ELEVATED AS THE STANDS ARE ELEVATED AT ROWLETT. SO THAT CAMPUS THERE HAS SOME RATHER ELEVATED BLEACHERS. AND SO THESE ARE THE CANOPIES THAT ARE TAKING CARE OF THOSE FIELDS. AND THIS IS SACHSE HIGH SCHOOL. THIS IS A SOFTBALL FIELD AT SACHSE HIGH SCHOOL COVERING THOSE SPECTATORS. AND WE'RE COVERING THE SPECTATORS AT THE BASEBALL FIELD. IN ADDITION TO THE SPECTATOR COVERAGE THAT YOU SEE AT THE BASEBALL FIELD THEY ALSO RECEIVED NEW BLEACHERS AT THE BASEBALL FIELD TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE THE PROPER AMOUNT OF SEATING FOR OUR SPECTATORS THAT ATTEND OUR BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL FIELDS GAMES. THE FIELDHOUSE AND MACS IS PHASE ONE, BUT PACK TWO THAT ENTAILS ALL SEVEN COMPREHENSIVE HIGH SCHOOLS. I WANTED TO REITERATE GMP 1 WAS TAKEN TO THE BOARD IN MAY OF BOARD APPROVED IT ON MAY THE 14TH. GMP 2 WAS APPROVED ON JUNE THE 25TH AND GMP NUMBER THREE THAT IS BEING REVIEWED BY GARLAND ISD, WITH DOCUMENTS THAT ARE BEING SHARED FROM THE CMAR. AND WE STILL ARE ON TRACK TO BRING THAT TO THE BOARD FOR APPROVAL, GMP 3, WHICH IS THE MAJORITY OF THE WORK ON OUR SEPTEMBER 24TH BOARD MEETING OR REGULAR BOARD MEETING. THE FREEMAN ELEMENTARY DEMOLITION FOR GMP 1 THAT WAS APPROVED ON AUGUST. AND AS DOCTOR LOPEZ WAS STATING BEFORE THE FENCING AND SCREENING ARE INSTALLED AT BOTH FREEMAN ELEMENTARY AND WHAT WE, FREEMAN ELEMENTARY. BUT I'LL TELL YOU THAT THAT HILLSIDE KIMBERLIN IS ALSO INSTALLED AT THIS TIME AS WELL. SO WE'RE MOVING FORWARD WITH THE DEMOLITION OF THAT. SO THE DEMOLITION IS GOING TO START THIS MONTH. WE EXPECT TO COMPLETE THE DEMOLITION BY DECEMBER. AND WE'VE HAD SOME REALLY GOOD MEETINGS WITH THE LIBRARY AND MEDIA CENTER REVISIONS. WE'RE GOING TO IMPLEMENT SOME REVISIONS INTO THAT AREA TO ENSURE THAT WE TO CAPTURE THOSE THE COMMENTS THAT WE HAVE RECEIVED BACK REGARDING THAT CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS COMPLETED IN NOVEMBER, AND WE EXPECT TO START CONSTRUCTION IN JANUARY. AT HILLSIDE ACADEMY FOR EXCELLENCE. HILLSIDE WE CONTINUE TO CALL IT HILLSIDE, BUT IT'S REALLY THE HILLSIDE/KIMBERLIN BUILDING ONCE IT'S ALL SAID AND DONE. GMP 1 WAS APPROVED ON AUGUST THE 13TH, AS STATED BEFORE THE FENCING AND SCREENING HAS BEEN PLACED AROUND THE PERIMETERS OF THE OF THE SITE, AND AGAIN FOLLOWING WITH FREEMAN. THE DEMOLITION WILL BE COMPLETE IN DECEMBER. THESE DOCUMENTS WILL BE DONE IN DECEMBER AND THE CONSTRUCTION STARTING FOR THIS WILL BE IN MARCH OF 2025. THANK YOU CENTENNIAL NAAMAN FOREST. WE CONTINUE TO HAVE CITY PRE-DEVELOPMENT MEETINGS. THESE ARE WITH THE CITY OF GARLAND. WE CALL THESE CITY PRE-DEVELOPMENT MEETINGS, BUT THE CITY CALLS THEM FIT MEETINGS. SO IT'S JUST AN ACRONYM. SO IF YOU HEAR THAT TERM, IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME THING. SO WE'VE GOT OUR HVAC DESIGNS ARE COMPLETE. WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE FOCUSED ON THAT TO ENSURE THAT WHAT WE ARE DOING AT BOTH CAMPUSES, THE ADDITIONS THAT WE'RE DOING CAN BE COMPLETED WITH THE EXISTING SYSTEMS THAT WE HAVE THERE. CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS WILL BE COMPLETE IN DECEMBER, AND WE'RE ACTUALLY LOOKING TO SOLICIT IN JANUARY WITH THE CONSTRUCTION STARTED IN APRIL OF NEXT YEAR. OUR PLAYGROUNDS, WE HAVE DEFINITELY HAVE HEARD THE BOARD AND THE COMMENTS MADE BY THE BOARD. WE ARE DOING AN ASSESSMENT. WE'RE DOING A PLAYGROUND STATION QUANTITY ASSESSMENT. WE ARE ONGOING WITH THAT. [00:10:01] WE HOPE TO BRING BACK TO YOU SOME OF OUR FINDINGS WITHIN THAT, BECAUSE THERE'S ALL KINDS OF WAYS YOU CAN LOOK AT A PLAYGROUND. THERE IS THE STUDENT CAPACITY OF A BUILDING. THERE'S THE NUMBER OF ENROLLMENTS OF A BUILDING. BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, THE BIGGEST THING IS HOW MANY STATIONS OUT THERE AND HOW MANY STUDENTS CAN YOU ACTUALLY SERVE AT ONE TIME? AND SO WE HAVE GOT THAT DATA NOW FROM EVERY ONE OF OUR CAMPUSES. WE KNOW HOW OUR CAMPUSES ARE UTILIZING OUR PLAYGROUNDS. I HAVE TO SHARE WITH YOU THAT A LITTLE BIT OF INSIGHTFUL FOR ME. HOW THEY'RE ACTUALLY UTILIZING THE PLAYGROUNDS. FOR EXAMPLE WE HAVE GRADES, WHAT WE CALL COHORTS. AND WITHIN EACH COHORT THERE MIGHT BE, LET'S SAY, KINDERGARTEN, THERE MIGHT BE FOUR SECTIONS OF KINDERGARTEN, AND THAT'S CONSIDERED A COHORT. WELL, SOME OF THE CAMPUSES WILL SEND ALL FOUR SECTIONS TO THE PLAYGROUND AT ONE TIME. SOME WILL SPLIT IT. AND SO UNDERSTANDING THAT NEED FOR EACH CAMPUS IS IMPORTANT TO US. AND SO THAT DOES AFFECT THE NUMBER OF STATIONS THAT EACH ONE IS BEING PROVIDED. SO WE'RE WORKING WITH THAT. AND WE PLAN TO BRING THAT BACK TO YOU TO SHARE YOU WITH YOU AS THE BOARD. SOME OF THE INSIGHTS THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH FOR THAT. BY DOING ALL THAT, WE STILL THINK THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OUR SCHEDULE THAT WE HAVE. WE'LL BE DOING SOLICITATIONS IN JANUARY OF 2025. OUR FENCING PROJECT WE ARE GETTING CLOSE TO BEING 90% DONE WITH OUR CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS THERE. WE PLAN ON DOING A CONSTRUCTION COMPLETION. MY APOLOGIES, I THINK I PUT 2025. YES. I'M SORRY. CONSTRUCTION COMPLETION IN SEPTEMBER OF 2025 FOR THIS PROJECT AND A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT WE'RE WORKING ON THAT PROJECT THE OVERALL SECURED FENCING PIECE OF IT, ALONG WITH THE NUMBER OF VEHICULAR GATES THAT WE'RE ADDING, THE NUMBER OF CARD ACCESSES THAT WE'RE HAVING TO DO FOR THE NUMBER OF GATES THAT WE'RE ACTUALLY ADDING. AS I STATED PREVIOUSLY, AND I WILL STATE THIS AGAIN, THAT THIS PROJECT HERE, THIS IS A FENCING PROJECT. AND WHILE IT MAY SOUND LIKE IT'S JUST A VERY SMALL PROJECT, THIS FENCING PROJECT WILL DRAMATICALLY CHANGE THE USE OF OUR BUILDINGS, HOW OUR COMMUNITY USES OUR BUILDINGS, HOW THEY ACCESS OUR BUILDINGS FOR OUR COMMUNITIES AND WHEN I SAY OUR COMMUNITIES, WHEN YOU LIVE IN CERTAIN PARTS OF THE TOWN EVERY, EVERY PART OF OUR TOWN IS DIFFERENT. EVERY IT'S A VERY UNIQUE COMMUNITY. AND SO THE CAMPUS THAT THAT IS THERE, IT'S THE HEART OF THAT COMMUNITY. AND SO THAT CAMPUS IS PEOPLE UTILIZE OUR CAMPUSES ALL DAY LONG WHILE WE TEACH. AFTER WE TEACH, PEOPLE TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR FACILITIES DURING THE DAY, DURING THE WEEKENDS. AND SO THIS IS A VERY BOLD PROJECT THAT I MIGHT SAY THAT THE DISTRICT IS UNDERTAKING BECAUSE IT IS GOING TO REQUIRE SOME CHANGES IN HOW WE ACCESS AREAS OF OUR FACILITY. SO WE'RE WORKING VERY CLOSELY WITH, WITH THE DESIGNERS AND WITH ADMINISTRATION TO TALK ABOUT HOW THIS PROJECT IS GOING TO AFFECT OUR COMMUNITIES. SO THE FIRE ALARM PROJECT. WE ARE MOVING FORWARD WITH THAT. WE ACTUALLY HAVE A DESIGN SCHEDULE NOW FOR SIX OF THE SEVEN FACILITIES. I BELIEVE THAT WE ARE ABOUT DONE WITH THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. WE HAD A PENDING DISCUSSION WITH THEM AT THE PAGEANT BUILDING. THAT'S ONE OF OUR BUILDINGS HERE. THAT'S A FACILITY SUPPORT BUILDING THAT HOUSES ONE OF OUR MAJOR WAREHOUSES IN THE DISTRICT. AND SO THERE WAS A LOT OF DISCUSSIONS ABOUT HOW THAT FIRE ALARM WAS GOING TO BE DESIGNED. AND SO WE THINK WE'VE MADE IT OVER THAT HURDLE. AND SO WE'LL BE FINALIZING THAT AND WE'LL BE GETTING THAT PROJECT STARTED. WANT TO CALL YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS CONTRACT HERE, THIS CONTRACT 510-23-06. WHILE IT WAS GOING TO BE RECOMMENDED TO THE BOARD TONIGHT THE CONTRACT HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN FROM THE AGENDA PENDING SOME CHANGES THAT WE'RE MAKING SOME MODIFICATIONS. SO THE PLAN IS NOW IS TO PULL THIS AND TO BRING IT BACK TO YOU AT THE REGULARLY SCHEDULED BOARD MEETING THIS MONTH. AND SO WE'RE MAKING SOME MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO THAT CONTRACT. AND THAT CONTRACT INVOLVES OUR CAMERA REFRESH, OUR ACCESS CONTROLS. OUR DOOR HARDWARE AND KEYING, THAT PROJECT IS ONGOING. WE HAVE GOT 64 CAMPUSES THAT WE'RE WORKING ON THERE. [00:15:01] THAT ACTUALLY ENTAILS SEVEN HIGH SCHOOLS, 12 MIDDLE SCHOOLS, 42 ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS, THREE ALTERNATIVE PROGRAM SPECIAL PROGRAM FACILITIES. THE PROJECT STARTED IN JUNE AND SITE BASED MAPPING IS ONGOING AT THIS TIME. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE ARE DOING IS THE DISTRICT HAS TAKEN A VERY BOLD INNOVATIVE WAY OF DOING DOOR HARDWARE, THE DOOR KEYS. WE WILL HAVE AN ACTUAL MAP THAT IS AN INTERACTIVE MAP THAT ALLOWS US TO KNOW EXACTLY HOW EACH DOOR IS KEYED. AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'RE WORKING WITH OUR MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT AND SOMETHING THAT WE'VE NOT HAD BEFORE. SO WE'LL BE ABLE TO TRACK SPECIFICALLY HOW EACH DOOR IS KEYED. AND THE KEY MATRIX, IF YOU WILL, FOR ALL OF OUR BUILDINGS. AND SO WE'RE WORKING REALLY HARD WITH OUR SUPPLIER TO WALK EVERY SPECIFIC CAMPUS AS WE'RE WALKING EVERY 64 OF THESE CAMPUSES, WE'RE WALKING IN AND AUDITING EVERY SINGLE DOOR ON THAT CAMPUS. SO THAT IS EVERY SINGLE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR DOOR TO DETERMINE EXACTLY THE TYPE OF LOCKING MECHANISM THAT IS IN PLACE THERE. I WANTED TO SHARE WITH YOU THE PROJECT SUMMARY FOR PHASE TWO. THESE ARE THE PROJECTS THAT HAVE KICKED OFF OUR PHASE TWO, BID PACK #1 IS THE ELEMENTARY NUMBER THREE. WRA IS THE DESIGN TEAM THAT'S BEEN SELECTED FOR THAT THE NEW AGRICULTURAL SCIENCE FACILITY, BID PACK #2 THAT'S SPACE PROGRAMING. WE'RE WORKING WITH THAT AT THIS TIME, WE HAVE ENGAGED OUR CTE DEPARTMENT. AND TO HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS, EXACTLY WHAT THE PROGRAM IS GOING TO ENTAIL. OUR PHASE TWO BID PACK #3 SOUTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL AND NORTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL RENOVATIONS. THE DESIGN TEAM AND CAMPUS ADMINISTRATION HAVE BEEN COORDINATING. SO WE'VE DONE THE INTRODUCTIONS THERE AND THE HICKMAN PHASE TWO BID PACK #4 HICKMAN, NORTHLAKE, ROWLETT AND TOLER WITH THE DESIGN TEAM IS WORKING ACTIVELY ON THAT. AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT I'M VERY ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT THAT SPECIFIC PROJECT, BECAUSE THAT'S AN ENHANCEMENT FOR ALL OF OUR CAMPUSES ON THE INTERIOR PIECE THAT, THAT, THAT WILL THAT IS LONG OVERDUE, AND WE'RE TAKING CARE OF THAT. AS PART OF THIS BOND PROGRAM. AND SO, AGAIN, THANK YOU TO OUR CITIZENRY FOR FOR VOTING TO APPROVE THIS, BECAUSE THIS IS GOING TO BE A TREMENDOUS GAIN FOR THESE CAMPUSES. PHASE TWO, BID PACK #5, COOPER ELEMENTARY, GIDDENS STEADHAM ELEMENTARY, AND HERFURTH ELEMENTARY THE ROOF PACKAGE. WE HAVE DONE AN EXTENSIVE AMOUNT OF OBSERVATIONS ON THESE ROOFS, AND WE'RE WORKING WITH THE ARCHITECTURAL FIRM TO DETERMINE EXACTLY THE ROOF REPLACEMENTS THAT WE'RE GOING TO DO WITH THOSE THREE CAMPUSES THERE AND CONTINUE ON WITH PHASE TWO, BID PACK #7, THE PERIMETER FENCING. NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOLS, HIGH SCHOOLS AND SPECIAL SERVICES FACILITIES. THAT'S 12 MIDDLE SCHOOLS, 7 HIGH SCHOOLS AND 4 ALTERNATIVE SPECIAL PROGRAM FACILITIES. SITE OBSERVATIONS ARE COMPLETE. WE HAVE WALKED ALL THAT. THAT IS ANOTHER CHALLENGE THAT WE'RE WORKING THROUGH. FIRE ALARM REPLACEMENTS FOR THAT'S THE SECOND PHASE OF THE FIRE ALARM REPLACEMENTS THAT INVOLVES SEVEN ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS, ONE MIDDLE SCHOOL AND ONE SPECIAL PROGRAM SCHOOL. WE ARE ACTIVELY WALKING THOSE CAMPUSES AND PLAN TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THAT. THE SECURITY CAMERA REFRESH, JUST TO LET YOU KNOW THAT THAT IS A SECOND PART, THAT'S EMBEDDED WITHIN THAT PROJECT, AND THAT'S PART OF THE PHASE TWO PIECE, ALONG WITH THE ACCESS CONTROL AND THE INTRUSION ALARM. SO THAT ONE CONTRACT INVOLVES MULTIPLE PHASES WITHIN THE BOND PROGRAM. THE PHASE TWO BID PACK #13 WATERPROOFING AND CLADDING THAT INVOLVES 35 ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS AND ONE SPECIAL PROGRAM FACILITIES. THE OBSERVATIONS FOR THAT ONE, WE ARE WALKING EVERY ALL THE EXTERIORS OF THE 35 CAMPUSES. SO WE'RE DOING A LOT OF WALKING ON ROOFS AND WALKING AROUND OUR PERIMETERS RIGHT NOW. SO WE'VE GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE ON THE GROUND THAT ARE DOING A LOT OF INVESTIGATIVE WORK RIGHT NOW. WHAT THAT WATERPROOFING AND CLADDING PROJECT IS IT'S NOT A ROOF PROJECT THAT'S SPECIFICALLY FOR THE WALLS OF THE BUILDING WE HAVE THE WALLS, DOORS AND WINDOWS. WE HAVE SOME BUILDINGS THAT THAT WHERE OUR EXPANSION JOINTS HAVE DETERIORATED AND WE'RE GETTING WATER INTRUSION THROUGH THE WALLS. AND SO THIS ALLOWS US TO GO BACK, IDENTIFY THAT, MAKE THOSE CORRECTIONS. AND SO WE'RE WORKING WITH OUR DESIGN TEAM FOR THAT. OUR PHASE TWO BID PACK #15 LOCAL AREA NETWORK. THIS IS BEING MANAGED BY OUR TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT. [00:20:02] YOU SEE THE HIGH SCHOOLS ARE COMPLETE. THE MIDDLE SCHOOLS THERE'S NINE SCHOOLS THAT ARE COMPLETED AND THREE SCHOOLS ARE SCHEDULED FOR DECEMBER. AND OUR ELEMENTARIES, WE HAVE TEN SCHOOLS COMPLETED AND 18 SCHOOLS ARE IN THE PROCUREMENT PROCESS FOR THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS. THE PROPOSITION C, WHICH IS OUTSIDE OF THE AB. YOU CAN SEE THE SCHEDULE THERE AND WHAT WE HAVE DONE. THE INSTALLATIONS ARE COMPLETE FOR THE MEDIA LAB AT LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL. GRCTC HIGH SCHOOL HAS GOT IT HAS GOT THE INTERACTIVE DISPLAYS ARE COMPLETE THERE. AND PART THREE IS OUR STUDENTS AND STAFF COMPUTER REPLACEMENTS. AND SO YOU CAN SEE THAT THE SCHEDULE THAT'S GOING ON FOR THAT PIECE THERE. AND FINALLY, THE FINANCIAL SUMMARY, WE HAVE HAD SOME DISCUSSIONS INTERNALLY ON HOW WE ACTUALLY SHARE WITH YOU THIS FINANCIAL SUMMARY AND ADDING THE INFORMATION THAT WE HAVE BEEN REQUESTED TO ADD, WHICH IS WHILE WE KNOW OUR CURRENT BUDGET, WHAT ARE OUR PROJECTIONS ON A PER PROJECT BASIS. AND SO WE HAVE BEEN WORKING IN-HOUSE TO DETERMINE HOW THE APPROPRIATE METHOD TO DISPLAY THAT FOR YOU SO THAT YOU CAN QUICKLY SEE WHERE WE'RE AT CURRENT BUDGET WISE. AND THEN THE POTENTIAL TOTAL PROJECT BUDGET THAT WOULD BE THERE FOR EACH PROJECT. AND SO WE'RE WORKING THROUGH THAT. ALONG WITH ADMINISTRATION. SO HOPEFULLY TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT TO YOU HERE SHORTLY. IS THAT IT? YES, SIR. I THINK THAT'S IT. YES, SIR. OKAY. THANK YOU FOR THAT PRESENTATION AND UPDATE. MR. BEACH. YES, JAVIER, THANK YOU FOR THAT PRESENTATION THAT'S GREAT. REALLY MOVING ALONG VERY WELL. I'VE GOT SOME CONCERNS OR SOME QUESTIONS AS FAR AS THE FENCING IS CONCERNED. ONE IS, IS THE FENCING GOING TO TAKE IN OUR ENTIRE PROPERTY OF OUR CAMPUS? THAT'S JUST A YES OR NO. THAT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION. [LAUGHTER] THE ANSWER NO, IT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION. THE ANSWER TO THAT IS THE MAJORITY OF PROJECTS THAT WE'RE DOING FOR THE FENCING, WE'RE CREATING A SECURED PERIMETER AREA FOR FENCING. SO WE HAVE WHERE THE STUDENTS ARE BEING, WHERE STUDENTS CONGREGATE THROUGH THE DAY IS WHERE WE'RE CONCENTRATING ON KEEPING THAT FENCE THERE. SO THERE'S SOME OF OUR CAMPUSES WHERE WE WILL HAVE AN EXISTING PERIMETER FENCE. SOME OF OUR LARGE CAMPUSES, WE HAVE A LARGE PERIMETER FENCE THAT WILL REMAIN. THIS PROJECT TAKES IT AND IT CREATES A SAFETY AREA WITHIN WHERE ALL THE STUDENTS, WHERE THEY ACTUALLY WHERE THEY GO FOR RECESS, WHERE THEY GO TO PLAY. THOSE AREAS ARE BEING SECURED WITH A FENCE, NOT ONLY WITH A FENCE, BUT WITH A GATE. THAT IS THE GATES WILL HAVE A CARD KEY ACCESS, SO THE GATES WILL BE TIED TO OUR BADGE READER. SO YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CARD KEY READER TO ACTUALLY GO THROUGH THAT GATE. AND SO NOW WE ARE WORKING WITH WE ARE WORKING WITH OUR SECURITY DEPARTMENT. THE GREAT THING ABOUT WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO IMPLEMENT HERE IS GARLAND ISD HAS THE ABILITY TO DO WHAT WE CALL ACCESS CONTROL. SO A LOT OF THINGS WE HAVE WE SAY WE HAVE A CARD KEY READER, SIMILAR TO, YOU KNOW, THE BADGE. WE WALK AROUND WITH A BADGE. THAT'S IT'S CALLED A THIS IS CALLED A CARD KEY. IT'S A KEY, BUT IT'S A CARD. AND YOU CAN DO A COUPLE OF THINGS WITH THAT. YOU CAN HAVE IT TO WHERE YOU OPEN A DOOR WITH IT OR THE SYSTEM WE HAVE. IT'S AN ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM. SO YOU CAN ACTUALLY CREATE TIMES WHERE THOSE DOORS ARE THEN TURNED ON OR TURNED OFF. SO THAT AND WE'RE WORKING THROUGH THAT. EACH SPECIFIC CAMPUS IS UNIQUE WITH OUR SECURITY DEPARTMENT. THERE ARE INSTANCES WHERE WE MAY NEED TO HAVE THOSE MANNED GATES, THAT'S WHAT WE CALL MANNED GATES BUT PASS THROUGH GATES OPEN TO WHERE YOU DON'T NEED A CARD KEY, AND YOU JUST ENTER BECAUSE IT'S UNLOCKED. THAT WOULD BE LIKE ON SATURDAYS OR SUNDAYS. AND SO TO MAKE SURE THAT THE COMMUNITY IS STILL GAINING ACCESS TO SOME OF THE SPACES THAT THEY'RE TRADITIONALLY LOOKING AT. SO WE'RE WORKING WITH SECURITY ON SOME OF THAT. AND, AGAIN, EACH ONE OF OUR CAMPUSES IS VERY UNIQUE THAT WE'RE WORKING THROUGH. BUT THE ABILITY TO CONTROL ACCESS IS CRITICAL. AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THAT WITH EVERY ONE OF THESE FENCING PROJECTS. WITH THAT BEING SAID, I WAS GOING TO ASK YOU SOME OTHER THINGS ABOUT THE DIFFERENT TYPE OF FENCING. HOW TALL IS THE FENCING GOING TO BE TO SECURE THOSE AREAS THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. IN OTHER WORDS, I GUESS YOUR PERIMETER JUST FOR YOUR PROPERTY LINE WOULDN'T HAVE TO BE AS TALL AS THE AREA THAT YOU'RE REALLY WANTING TO SECURE. [00:25:07] IS THAT CORRECT? THAT'S CORRECT. SO THERE'S SO THE REQUIREMENTS THAT WE'VE GOTTEN BACK FROM THE INFORMATION WE'VE RECEIVED BACK FROM OUR SECURITY DEPARTMENT, WHO IS WORKING IN COLLABORATION WITH THE STATE, IS THAT IF IT'S A CYCLONE FENCE, WHICH PEOPLE SAY IF IT'S A CHAIN LINK FENCE, A CHAIN LINK FENCE IS A CYCLONE FENCE. IN ORDER FOR IT NOT TO BE SCALABLE, IT HAS TO BE EIGHT FEET. IF IT IS A WHAT WE CALL I DON'T WANT TO USE THE TERM WROUGHT IRON, BUT THAT BRINGS PEOPLE TO THINK, OKAY, A WROUGHT IRON FENCE. A WROUGHT IRON FENCE IS REALLY A DECORATIVE FENCE. BECAUSE THERE'S ALL TYPES OF FENCING THAT IS WROUGHT IRON IS THE TYPE OF MATERIAL THAT'S ACTUALLY USED. SO THERE'S ALL DIFFERENT TYPES OF MATERIALS. IF YOU USE ONE OF THOSE, WHAT THOSE ARE NON-SCALABLE THOSE ARE HAVE TO BE AT A MINIMUM OF SIX FEET. SO DEPENDING ON THE MATERIAL TYPE THEY'RE GOING TO BE DIFFERENT ELEVATIONS ONE WILL BE AT SIX FEET ONE WILL BE AT EIGHT FEET. THE OTHER THING THAT I'M A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT IS THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE ON THE WEEKENDS AND WHATNOT THAT TAKE THEIR KIDS TO OUR CAMPUSES TO PLAY ON OUR CAMPUSES AT THOSE PLAYGROUNDS, ARE THOSE GOING TO BE ACCESSIBLE OR NOT ACCESSIBLE, OR ARE THEY GOING TO ARE NOW WITH US DOING THE FENCING LIKE WE'RE DOING? ARE WE GOING? IS THAT GOING TO PUSH THEM TO THE CITY PARKS MORE THAN USING THOSE CAMPUS FACILITIES THAT ARE RIGHT THERE IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD? YES, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. THEY GOT TO UNDERSTAND THEY WON'T HAVE ACCESS TO OUR SCHOOLS ANYMORE. OKAY, I KIND OF THOUGHT THAT THE COMMUNITY PROBABLY NEEDS TO KNOW THAT. BUT I MEAN, I KNOW THAT THE CITY OF GARLAND HAS REALLY REVAMPED, REALLY UPGRADED THEIR PARKS, AND THAT'LL BE A GOOD THING FOR THEM BECAUSE THEY DO NEED TO BE USED. BUT I WAS JUST CURIOUS ABOUT THAT TOO. SO YOU'VE ANSWERED ALL MY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU SIR. MR. GLICK. THANK YOU. YEAH. THANK YOU. ON THAT SAME POINT WHAT DOCTOR LOPEZ SAID, AND YOU INDICATED THAT THESE SCHOOLS ARE IMPORTANT PARTS OF THE COMMUNITIES THEY EXIST IN. AND I CAN JUST IMAGINE WHEN THESE BRAND NEW PLAYGROUNDS, AT LEAST TWO PER SCHOOL, COME OUT AND PEOPLE ARE PASSING BY, THEY'RE GOING TO WANT TO ACCESS THEM. AND I GUESS WHAT WE'RE SAYING IS, NO. THE OTHER THING, I THINK BECAUSE I PASS COYLE ALL THE TIME, IT'S KIND OF AROUND THE CORNER FROM MY HOUSE. IT'S VERY, VERY BUSY, NIGHTS, WEEKENDS. I KNOW BASKETBALL HAS PLAYED THERE ALL THROUGH THE FALL AND INTO THE WINTER. SO YOU THINK YOU HAVE THAT UNDER CONTROL, THE ACCESS TO BE ABLE TO GET IN AND OUT ON NIGHTS AND WEEKENDS. IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE WORKING ON NOW? YES, WE ARE WORKING WITH SECURITY. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT, AGAIN, THE TYPE OF SYSTEM THAT WE HAVE HERE IN THE DISTRICT ALLOWS US TO CREATE SCHEDULES FOR EACH CAMPUS. AND WITHIN THOSE SCHEDULES, WE CAN CONTROL THE GATES THAT ARE DURING THE DAY WHEN WE HAVE STUDENTS THERE AND WE'RE ACTIVE. THAT GATE IS LOCKED. THERE'S NO WAY TO GAIN ACCESS IN THERE UNLESS YOU HAVE A BADGE UNLESS YOU HAVE A CARD BADGE THAT GETS YOU IN. AND AT THE END OF THE DAY, WHEN YOU HAVE THESE RENTALS, WHEN YOU HAVE THESE ACTIVITIES THAT GO ON, THE ABILITY TO TURN THAT SYSTEM OFF AND ALLOW THAT ACCESS TO HAPPEN, THAT'S REALLY A FUNCTION OF THE CAMPUS. AND SO EACH CAMPUS IS GOING TO BE UNIQUE. AND SO WE'RE WORKING AGAIN, WE'LL BE WORKING WITH SECURITY AND ARE WORKING WITH SECURITY TO ENSURE THAT WE UNDERSTAND THE OPERATIONAL USE OF THIS. AND I KNOW WHAT YOU SAID, DOCTOR LOPEZ, BUT I WOULD IMAGINE THAT WHEN THOSE PLAYGROUNDS DO APPEAR AND WE'RE SHUTTING THE COMMUNITIES OUT FROM USING THEM, WE'RE GOING TO GET MORE THAN A FEW LETTERS TO THE BOARD ON PEOPLE SAYING, I PAY TAXES. WHY CAN'T I USE THOSE? SAME AS WHEN WE FIRST PUT OUR TRACKS OUT AND THINGS LIKE THAT. SO I THINK WE NEED TO BE PREPARED FOR THAT. I HAVE SOME OTHER QUESTIONS. AND MAYBE EITHER YOU OR MAYBE DOCTOR GARRETT CAN ANSWER THESE. AS YOU WERE GOING THROUGH ON THE DOOR HARDWARE KEYING I THINK THAT'S A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. MAYBE WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THAT. ON WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH HICKMAN THAT WHEN YOU CALL THAT THE ROWLETT ELEMENTARY MODEL? MAYBE YOU COULD TALK ABOUT THAT FOR SAFETY REASONS. ALSO, FIRE ALARMS, SECURITY CAMERAS. THERE'S A LOT OF SAFETY IN THIS, AND MAYBE WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT SO PEOPLE UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH SAFETY IS IN THIS BOND. OH, ABSOLUTELY. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE TOUTED VERY AT THE VERY BEGINNING WHEN WE WERE ADVOCATING. I WOULD SAY, WELL, LET ME SAY THIS. LET ME CORRECT MYSELF. WE CAN'T ADVOCATE, BUT AS WE WERE OUT STATING WHAT THE BOND WOULD DO FOR OUR COMMUNITY, ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS THAT WE WANTED TO MENTION IS THAT THIS BOND HERE WAS VERY, VERY STRONG ON SECURITY FOR OUR [00:30:04] STUDENTS, TEACHERS AND STAFF. AND IN ADDITION TO OUR OTHER FACILITIES IS WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO. SO WE'RE SO NOT ONLY DOES IT HAVE AS YOU MENTIONED, TRUSTEE GLICK THE DOOR KEYING, IT'S EXTREMELY CRITICAL. AND I'LL TELL YOU NOT TO BELABOR THE ISSUE, BUT IF YOU TALK TO ANY PRINCIPAL AT ANY OF OUR CAMPUSES THEY TELL YOU THAT THEY WALK AROUND WITH THIS MASSIVE KEYCHAIN WITH ALL THE DIFFERENT KEYS THAT THEY HAVE TO BE ABLE TO UTILIZE THEIR BUILDING AND ACCESS THEIR BUILDING. SAFETY IS ABOUT SECONDS. IT'S ALL ABOUT SECONDS. AND SO GETTING THAT TO ONE KEY, HAVING ONE KEY FOR THAT PRINCIPAL, THAT IRREGARDLESS OF WHERE THEY'RE GOING INTO THAT BUILDING, THEY CAN EITHER OPEN LOCK WHATEVER THEY NEED TO DO. THAT MAY SEEM LIKE A VERY SMALL, TRIVIAL TASK FOR A DISTRICT TO DO, BUT UNDERSTAND WE HAVE 82, 83 FACILITIES. THAT'S THE NUMBER OF CAMPUS 82 83 CAMPUSES. THAT'S NOT SAYING THE NUMBER OF BUILDINGS. WHEN YOU START COUNTING THE NUMBER OF BUILDINGS WE'RE WELL OVER 100 BUILDINGS THAT WE ACTUALLY HAVE. AND THEN YOU TALK ABOUT THE DOORS AND TO HAVE SOMEONE WALK AROUND WITH ALL THESE KEYS. SO IT'S REALLY A STRONG MESSAGE THAT WE'RE DOING. SECURITY KEYING IS KEY. THE SAFETY FENCING, THE FENCING THAT WE'RE DOING IS A TREMENDOUS BENEFIT FOR OUR COMMUNITY. AND THEN THE ROWLETT TOLER, THAT IS ONE PROTOTYPE. THERE'S ACTUALLY OTHERS THAT ARE DIFFERENT PROTOTYPE THAT ALSO HAVE THAT ENHANCEMENTS THAT WE ARE DOING CREATING A WHILE OUR CAMPUSES ARE SECURE TODAY. AND I WANT TO RESTATE THAT, AND I'LL CONTINUE TO STATE THAT OUR CAMPUSES ARE ABSOLUTELY 100% SECURE. YOU CANNOT GET INTO OUR CAMPUSES UNLESS YOU GO THROUGH THE SECURED VESTIBULE, AND YOU GO INTO THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING AND TO GO TO THE OFFICE. BUT WITH ONCE YOU'RE IN THE BUILDING. WE DO HAVE SOME BUILDINGS THAT YOU CAN GO FROM CLASSROOM TO CLASSROOM WITHOUT GOING TO THE COMMON CORRIDOR. AND SO WE'RE GOING TO CORRECT THAT. AND THAT WAS WHAT'S KNOWN AS THE OPEN CONCEPT THAT WE HAD I THINK WAS 12 OR 13 CAMPUS. YES, SIR. YEAH. SO THAT'LL BE CORRECTED. AND THAT'S INCREDIBLE THAT'S SO IMPORTANT. THE SECURITY CAMERAS, THESE ARE PROBABLY THE ONES THAT WE PUT IN AFTER THE LAST BOND. I WOULD IMAGINE. YES. THIS IS A SECURITY CAMERA REFRESH. THIS IS REFRESHING A LOT OF OUR CAMERAS THAT ARE OUTDATED. AND SO WE'RE WORKING TO UPGRADE THOSE CAMERAS. THERE'S ALSO SOME ENHANCEMENTS WITHIN THAT MAKING SURE THAT WE'VE GOT PROPER COVERAGE. SO THERE'S WHILE IT'S A REFRESH, THERE'S ALSO SOME ADDITIONS, ADDING SOME ADDITIONAL CAMERAS TO SOME CAMPUSES THAT NEED SOME ADDITIONAL COVERAGE. AND SO WE'RE COVERING THAT AS WELL. SO STATE OF THE ART IN 2014 IS NOT STATE OF THE ART IN 2024. I THINK THAT'S WHAT WE'RE SAYING. RIGHT. UNFORTUNATELY, SIR, WITH TECHNOLOGY THAT AS IT EVOLVES, THE ANSWER IS NO. YEAH. SO THANK YOU, SIR. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? AWESOME. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. WE'RE GOING TO NOW MOVE TO OUR ACTION ITEMS ON CONSENT. [V.A. New Bids] AS YOU HEARD FROM MR. FERNANDEZ THIS NEW BID ITEM A1 IS GETTING PULLED. AND I'LL LET YOU, MR. BOOKER, SAY WHATEVER YOU NEED TO SAY ABOUT THAT OR ADD TO WHAT MR. FERNANDEZ SAID. YES.

Increase to Awarded Bids] CONTRACT NUMBER 11-21. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF INCREASE AND MODIFICATION TO AWARD FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ABATEMENT, REMOVAL, DISPOSAL AND OTHER RELATED SERVICES. YES, SIR. ONCE AGAIN, THIS CONTRACT IS BEING BROUGHT BEFORE YOU. THE DISTRICT IS REQUESTING A MODIFICATION AND AN INCREASE TO ENSURE THAT THE DISTRICT CAN CONTINUE WORKING IF WE RUN INTO SOME ABATEMENT ISSUES WITH NEW CONSTRUCTION AND RENOVATION. THE 683 BOND IS BEING REQUESTED TO UTILIZE 35%. THIS WOULD BE ACTUALLY AN INCREASE OF APPROXIMATELY OR NOT APPROXIMATELY, BUT $1 MILLION TO MAKE THE NEW AWARD $1,500,000. AND THAT WOULD BE USED IN THE CASE. WE RUN INTO SOME ASBESTOS CONTAINING MATERIALS DURING A CONSTRUCTION PROJECT. WE DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE IT DELAYED AND WOULD WANT TO BE ABLE TO UTILIZE THIS CONTRACT TO GET IT ABATED AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. ANY QUESTIONS, MR. MILLER? YEAH. YOU SAID CONSTRUCTION PROJECT. ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT INCLUDING THE DEMOLITION OF EXISTING CAMPUSES? DEMOLITIONS, RENOVATIONS? ANY OF THOSE TYPES OF CONTRACTS THAT WE COULD ENCOUNTER INTO SOME HAZARDOUS MATERIALS THAT REQUIRED ABATEMENT? WE WANTED TO ENSURE THAT WE HAD BOND FUNDS AVAILABLE, IF NEEDED, TO CONTINUE THE WORK WITHOUT A DELAY. SO WE DON'T HAVE ANY BIDS OR ESTIMATES THAT WOULD EQUAL THIS AMOUNT. THIS IS A CONTINGENCY PLAN. IT'S JUST WE'RE NOT SURE WHAT WE'LL RUN INTO AND HOW MUCH WE'LL RUN INTO WHEN IT COMES TO ASBESTOS IN OUR BUILDINGS. THANK YOU. MR. GLICK. YEAH. WHY IS THIS NOT ALL UNDER 683? THIS. THIS CONTRACT WAS PUT IN PLACE FOR GENERAL FUNDS. SINCE IT WAS THE VENDORS THAT WE HAVE BEEN USING, WE JUST WANTED TO INTRODUCE 683 TO UTILIZE THE SAME SERVICES. BUT AS THE BOARD IS REQUIRED, IF WE'RE USING BOND FUNDS TO BRING IT TO THE BOARD FOR APPROVAL. SO IF THERE IS A NEED FOR BOND FUNDS, IT WOULD ALL COME OUT OF 683. YES, SIR. BOND. OKAY. YES, SIR. GOT IT. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, I WILL ENTERTAIN A MOTION. PRESIDENT SELDERS. YES, MISS STANLEY. I WOULD MOVE TO APPROVE INCREASE IN MODIFICATIONS TO RFP 1121 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ABATEMENT, REMOVAL, DISPOSAL AND OTHER RELATED SERVICES AS PRESENTED IN THE BOARD BOOK. SECOND. SECOND.

CONTRACT 303-22 CONSIDER APPROVAL OF INCREASE IN MODIFICATION TO AWARD FOR MAINTENANCE AND RELATED SERVICES. MR. BOOKER? YES, SIR. ONCE AGAIN, THIS IS A CONTRACT THAT IS BEING UTILIZED FOR HVAC MAINTENANCE AND RELATED EQUIPMENT AND SERVICES. IT WOULD ALLOW US TO PERFORM SOME REPAIRS DUE TO SERVICES OR STORM DAMAGES TO SOME OF THE FACILITIES. [00:40:04] THE CONTRACT MODIFICATION, THE NUMBER OF APPROVED SUPPLIERS AND THOSE SUPPLIERS HAVE NOT CHANGED. BUT WE ARE REQUESTING AN INCREASE OF $2,500,000, WHICH WOULD MAKE THE NEW AWARD $4,500,000. ANY QUESTIONS? MR. BEACH? JUST QUICKLY AGAIN, WE GOT ONE OF THOSE BUCKETS I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH, 654 THE LOCAL CAPITAL PROJECTS GNFB PROJECT MODULE. I'VE NEVER HEARD OF THAT. THAT'S ONE OF THE FUNDING SOURCES THAT WERE PROVIDED TO US THAT WOULD BE UTILIZED FOR THIS PROJECT, THAT FUND 654. IS IT ONE OF THE AGAIN THE BONDS WILL PAY FOR IT IF AND WE'LL JUST WE'LL USE. THE 654 WAS A LOCAL CAPITAL PROJECTS. THAT WAS THE NAME OF THAT FUND. BUT THE 683 BOND IS IDENTIFIED AS 20% OF THAT VALUE. OKAY. I'D LIKE TO KNOW HOW MUCH IS IN THAT BUCKET. I'M SORRY. SO THAT'S THE NEW SECO PROJECT. WE WERE USING 651 BEFORE. WE USED A DIFFERENT FUND SO WE CAN KEEP THOSE SEPARATED. SO ANYWAY. SECO. YEAH. THANK YOU. THAT'S WHAT. YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT THERE. THANK YOU. I WAS GOING TO ASK, WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM FOR THIS BUCKET? WHAT I NEED TO KNOW. NOW, I GOT IT. THANK YOU. SEACOR. SECO. THANK YOU, MR. JOHNSON. YEAH. MR. BOOKER DO YOU HAVE ANY. I MEAN, WHY DO WE NEED TO INCREASE THE BUDGET BY 2.5 MILLION FOR THIS? THAT'S THE KIND OF ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM. HAS THERE BEEN 2.5 MILLION IN ADDITIONAL EXPENDITURES? THAT WAS THE REQUEST FROM OPERATIONS, I THINK. YEAH. GOOD EVENING AGAIN. BOARD OF TRUSTEES, DOCTOR LOPEZ. GREAT QUESTION, MR. JOHNSON. THE ONLY WAY, THE ONLY REASON WHY WE'VE ADDED 6.83 TO THIS CONTRACT IS THE MAJORITY OF YOUR HVAC SCOPE IS PART OF THE BOND. CORRECT. YOU KNOW, 6.83. WE'RE DOING A MAJOR PROJECT IN A SITUATION WHERE WE'RE UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND A PART OF THE BUILDING IS OPEN, AND I NEED TO BRING SPECIAL VENTILATION INTO THAT BUILDING WHILE IT'S UNDER CONSTRUCTION BECAUSE IT'S AFFECTING ANOTHER AREA. IT'S STILL PART OF THE BOND SCOPE. AND I NEED A WAY, AN AVENUE TO THAT'S VERY QUICKLY TO RESPOND. FOR INSTANCE, THIS PAST SUMMER, WE EXPERIENCED A LOT OF MOLD IN OUR SCHOOLS, AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT CONCERNS ME IS THAT DURING CONSTRUCTION TIME, WHEN SYSTEMS ARE DOWN, I NEED A QUICK WAY TO GET SOME AIR INTO THESE AREAS. SO THIS IS ONLY A VEHICLE IN THOSE CASES, BECAUSE MOST OF YOUR MAJOR HVAC SCOPE IS PART OF THE SCOPE OF WORK AS THE PROJECT MOVES ALONG AND, YOU KNOW, I GET THE WHOLE CONCEPT OF USING THE DIFFERENT BUCKETS AND SUCH, THAT'S NOT REALLY WHAT MY QUESTION IS ABOUT. MY QUESTION IS WE'RE GOING FROM AN AWARD AMOUNT OF 2 MILLION, REGARDLESS OF THE BUCKET IT COMES FROM, TO AN AWARD AMOUNT OF 4.5 MILLION. AND MY QUESTION IS WHAT IS THE ADDITIONAL EXPENSE THAT WE'RE SEEING THAT IS NEEDING THAT WE NEED TO DOUBLE THIS AWARDED AMOUNT FOR? I'M NOT BY A SMALL AMOUNT BY MORE THAN WE ORIGINALLY APPROVED. NOW GOING UP 2.5 MILLION TO 4.5 MILLION. IS IT JUST FOR THIS, LIKE, KIND OF TEMPORARY HVAC STUFF? YES, SIR. IT'S FOR A LOT OF THE TEMPORARY HVAC STUFF. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TWO LARGE HIGH SCHOOLS UNDER MAJOR CONSTRUCTION WHICH ARE ON CHILLER SYSTEMS. AND IF WE HAVE TO BRING DOWN THE CHILLER SYSTEM DURING CONSTRUCTION WHILE WE TIE IN, THERE'S GOING TO BE SOME TIE INS. I NEED TO HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO STILL COOL THE REST OF THE BUILDING DOWN. IF NOT, WE COULD BE FACING SOME LOSS THERE OR SOME ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES. YOU KNOW, THESE ARE LARGE, YOU KNOW, LARGE FACILITIES AND A TEMPORARY CHILLER TO BRING IN. IT'S VERY COSTLY. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? MAY I FOLLOW UP ON THAT? SURE. MR. MILLER. JUST THINKING THROUGH THIS AND THINKING ABOUT OUR GENERAL FUND AND OUR BUDGET AND ALL THAT STUFF. WITH RESPECT TO THE BOND, I MEAN, WE DID A BOND FOR BASICALLY A BILLION, 2 BILLION THREE AND NOW WHAT WE'RE LEARNING, I THINK, IS THAT BECAUSE WE ARE DOING GREAT WORK WITH THE BOND, IT IS GOING TO HAVE SOME IMPACT ON OUR OTHER BUILDINGS THAT ARE NOT, QUOTE, BEING TOUCHED AS PART OF THE BOND, BUT WE NEED TO KEEP HVAC IN OR AIRFLOW OR WHATEVER IS GOING ON. I GUESS MY QUESTION IS, IS THERE A WAY FOR THE BOARD TO KNOW WHAT IMPACT TO THE GENERAL FUND OR ANY OTHER BUCKET THAT WE [00:45:07] HAVE? THAT IS AS A RESULT OF THE BOND. IN OTHER WORDS, WE'RE SPENDING 1 BILLION OR 2 ON THE BOND. HOW MUCH ARE WE SPENDING OUT OF OTHER BUCKETS TO COMPLETE THE BOND? IN OTHER WORDS, THAT GIVES ME A TOTAL SCOPE OF WHAT IT COST US TO DO, WHAT THE VOTERS VOTED IN FOR US TO DO. I MEAN, IT'S HARD TO SAY. I MEAN, I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE ASKING ME. IT'S HARD TO SAY BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH UNFORESEEN. THERE WILL BE SOME IMPACT TO THE 199 BUDGET. WE'RE TRYING TO MAKE IT VERY MINIMAL. BUT I ALSO WANT ALSO TO BRING BACK TO THE BOARD AS A REMINDER THAT A LOT OF DURING THE AS WE WENT TO THE VOTERS, AS WE WORKED, WHAT WE WERE GOING TO DO AS PART OF THE SCOPE OF WORK AND WHAT WE WERE GOING TO EXECUTE AS A SCOPE OF WORK FOR THIS BOND PROGRAM. A LOT OF THINGS WENT FROM PRIORITIES, HIGHER PRIORITIES TO LOWER PRIORITIES. A LARGE SECTION, A LARGE PART OF THE HVAC PIECE WAS WAS MOVED INTO THE NEXT BOND PROGRAM WHICH IS A PRIORITY TOO. I'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH OUR CFO AND OUR PRIOR CFO AND MENTIONED THAT OUR GENERAL FUND BUDGET WILL BE IMPACTED BECAUSE A LOT OF OUR SYSTEMS ARE STILL NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT AS I COME BACK TO THE BOARD, YOU HEARD A BUDGET INCREASE EARLIER BY OUR BUDGET DEPARTMENT. BASICALLY ADDING ANOTHER MILLION DOLLARS TO MAINTENANCE. THOSE WERE FOR SOME BOILERS THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED. SO WE WILL MAKE IT VERY, VERY TRANSPARENT AND I'LL BRING AS MUCH INFORMATION AS I CAN. BUT WE WILL BE HAVING THESE CONVERSATIONS OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS. YEAH. AND THAT'S OKAY. I MEAN, I JUST WANT TO HAVE A FULL GRASP. IN OTHER WORDS, IT COULD BE AFTER THE FACT. I MEAN, YOU CAN'T FORESEE EVERYTHING, AND SOME OF THE MONEY YOU'RE ALLOCATING MAY NOT BE SPENT. I GET THAT, I JUST WANT TO KNOW THIS BILLION TWO BOND, THAT IT COST ME 1,000,000,005 AND IT COST ME A BILLION 220 YOU KNOW, WHAT'S THE NUMBER? AND ANYTIME WE DO ANYTHING AND IF THIS IS ONE OF THOSE ITEMS THAT AFFECTS THE BUDGET, INCREASES THE DEFICIT. I JUST WANT TO BE CRYSTAL CLEAR YOU OUGHT TO BE CRYSTAL CLEAR WITH US THAT, YOU KNOW, WE HAD A $92 MILLION DEFICIT. NOW WE GOT A 94.5. IF THAT'S THE CASE, I JUST WANT TO SAY IT. AND OTHERWISE, IT'S TOO HARD FOR ME TO KEEP ALL THE NUMBERS IN MY HEAD. SO IF WE CAN STAY ABREAST OF THAT, I KNOW PART OF THIS IS IF IT'S IN THE BUDGET, IT MIGHT NOT GET SPENT. THERE'S A LOT OF DOLLARS THAT DON'T GET SPENT THAT ARE IN THE BUDGET. SO I JUST WANT TO KIND OF KEEP UP WITH THIS BECAUSE TO ME, IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT AS WE MOVE FORWARD THROUGH THIS YEAR, ESPECIALLY AS WE GET INTO THE SPRING OF NEXT YEAR WITH BUDGET PLANNING, GENERAL FUND. GENERAL FUND REDUCTIONS, ETC., THINGS THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO MANAGE AS WE GO FORWARD IN MANY DIFFERENT AREAS. SO I APPRECIATE ALL CLARITY. YOU CAN GIVE US ON THAT. YES, SIR. THANK YOU, MR. GLICK. YEAH. YOU'VE OPENED UP AN INTERESTING TOPIC THAT I WASN'T SURE WE WERE GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT. SO YOU TALKED ABOUT THE HVAC. THAT WAS IN PRIORITY TWO. I UNDERSTAND THAT, AND WE'RE NOT COVERING THAT UNDER THE 1.3 BILLION I GET THAT. SO THAT'S 199. ARE YOU SAYING THERE IS SOME SIGNIFICANT 199 THAT WILL BE ADDED TO THE BOND FUNDS FOR CURRENT BOND PROJECTS? THAT'S WHERE I'M CONFUSED. NO, SIR. MY STATEMENT WAS BECAUSE WE DIDN'T COVER IT ON THIS BOND PROGRAM, IT'S GOING TO HIT OUR GENERAL FUND IF THE SYSTEMS FAIL, AND WE HAVE TO PULL IT OUT OF OUR GENERAL FUND TO REPAIR, YOU KNOW, AND I UNDERSTAND THAT. SO YOU YOUR BELIEF AT THIS POINT IS THE MONEY THAT WE GOT FROM THE BOND WILL COVER ALL THE BOND PROJECTS PER SE. YES, SIR. THAT IS OUR GOAL. OKAY. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION. YES. YES. DO I HAVE A MOTION? YES. MR. MILLER. MR. PRESIDENT, I WOULD MOVE THAT WE APPROVE. I'M TRYING TO LOOK FOR THE IS THIS THE RFP 303-22? 303-22 OKAY. APPROVE RFP 303-22 HVAC MODIFICATION TO AWARD FOR MAINTENANCE AND RELATED SERVICES AS PRINTED IN OUR BOARD BOOK. [00:50:04] I'LL SECOND. IT'S BEEN MOVED BY MR. MILLER, SECONDED BY MR. BEACH. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? THERE IS NO DISCUSSION. FURTHER DISCUSSION. WE'RE PREPARED TO VOTE. VOTE OPEN. VOTE CLOSED. MOTION CARRIES SIX ONE. MOVING TO CONTRACT NUMBER THREE. I'M SORRY. DO YOU? YEAH. IT SHOWS THAT YOU DID. YEAH, THAT'S WHAT IT SHOWS. DO WE NEED TO. WE NEED TO REDO IT?

THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE A VOTE. ALL PEOPLE, RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND. RAISE THE PROPER HAND THIS TIME. ARE YOU SECOND? SO IT'S BEEN MOVED BY MR. MILLER, SECONDED BY MR. GLICK. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, RAISE YOUR HAND, PLEASE. ALL RIGHT. NOW, THAT MOTION CARRIES SEVEN ZERO. DO WE HAVE TO DO THE REST OF THEM THIS WAY? ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT, SO NOW WE'RE BACK. ALL RIGHT, SO MOVING TO CONTRACT NUMBER C3 361-1621. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF INCREASE IN MODIFICATIONS TO AWARD FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS CONSULTING SERVICES, MR. BOOKER. YES, SIR.

MILLER. YEAH, I JUST WANTED TO ASK, IN THE PREVIOUS AWARD, WERE ALL OF THESE FUNDING CATEGORIES PRESENT AT THAT TIME ALSO? REPEAT THAT. MR. MILLER, PLEASE. IN THE PREVIOUS AWARD, WHICH WAS $1 MILLION, WERE ALL FOUR OF THESE FUNDS, ALL FOUR OF THESE FUNDING SOURCES AVAILABLE FOR THAT. IN OTHER WORDS, HAVE WE ADDED ANY NEW FUNDING SOURCES WITH THIS INCREASE. NO. OKAY. SO IT'S THE SAME. YES. IT'S JUST THE PERCENTAGES MAY HAVE CHANGED, BUT THE FUNDS ARE THE SAME. WE'RE ASKING FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING. OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. JUST A POINT OF CLARITY. IN THE PREVIOUS CONTRACT YOU HAD LISTED, AND I DON'T KNOW HOW SPECIFIC WE HAVE TO BE, BUT 654 SAYS LOCAL CAPITAL PROJECTS. AND THEN YOU GIVE IT A NAME FOR THIS ONE YOU CALL IT LOCAL PORTION OF BOND PROJECT. DOES THAT MATTER? I DON'T COME UP WITH THE NAMING OF THE FUND SOURCE. SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT COMES OUT OF OUR FINANCE DEPARTMENT. SO I WOULD HAVE TO DEFER THAT. THE NAMING DOESN'T MATTER. IT'S STILL 654. THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO MAKE SURE OF.
