GOOD AFTERNOON. IT IS 4:31 P.M. AND THIS IS A REGULARLY SCHEDULED MEETING OF THE GARLAND ISD BOARD OF TRUSTEES.

[I. Call to Order and Determination of Quorum ]

OUR SPECIAL BOND MEETING SPECIFICALLY. I'M GOING TO GO AHEAD AND DETERMINE THAT THERE IS A QUORUM.

SOMEONE LET ME KNOW IF MISS GRIFFIN IS ONLINE.

SHE'S NOT AT THE MOMENT, SO WE'LL PROCEED OKAY. VERY GOOD. AND MISS STANLEY IS CURRENTLY NOT PRESENT AS WELL.

BUT WE DO HAVE A QUORUM. DO WE HAVE ANY CARDS FOR THE PUBLIC FORUM FOR THE BOND MEETING? OKAY, THEN MOVING ON SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE.

[III. Superintendent's Message]

WELL, WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THE PROGRESS THAT'S HAPPENING WITH OUR INDOOR FACILITIES.

WE CALL THEM THE MAC'S. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE WE'RE GOING TO CORDIALLY INVITE OUR COMMUNITY TO A RIBBON CUTTING ON AUGUST 8TH AT 10 A.M.. IT'S GOING TO BE THE NAAMAN FOREST MAC.

IT'S THE FIRST ONE THAT'S COMPLETED. ROWLETT IS VERY CLOSE.

SACHSE IS RIGHT THERE TOO. SO WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO START UNVEILING THESE.

AND EACH ONE OF THEM IS GOING TO HAVE A UNIQUE RIBBON CUTTING ASSOCIATED WITH IT.

BUT THE MULTI-PROGRAM ACTIVITY CENTERS ARE ALMOST UP AND RUNNING.

I INVITE EVERYBODY, YOU GOT TO COME CHECK THIS OUT.

AND I THINK THAT THE PUBLIC IS REALLY GOING TO BE IMPRESSED WITH WHAT WE DELIVER.

SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU. DOCTOR LOPEZ. ALL RIGHT.

THE NEXT ITEM IS INFORMATION ITEM RECEIVE PRESENTATION ON BOND 2023 PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE.

[IV.A. Receive Presentation on Bond 2023 Program Summary Update – Javier Fernandez]

JAVIER FERNANDEZ, HOW ARE YOU DOING, SIR? THANK YOU.

DOING WELL. THANK YOU. PRESIDENT JOHNSON, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, DOCTOR LOPEZ WE ARE EXCITED TODAY TO PROVIDE YOU A UPDATE ON JULY 28, 2026 UPDATE ON OUR BOND PROGRAM.

AND AS DOCTOR LOPEZ SHARED, WE ARE VERY EXCITED AND WELCOME EVERYONE TO ATTEND OUR RIBBON CUTTING FOR THE NAAMAN FOREST MULTI-PROGRAM ACTIVITY CENTER. SO IT'S VERY SPECIALIZED THAT THAT BUILDING A LOT OF PEOPLE CALL THEM MULTI-PURPOSE FACILITIES. AND WE SPECIFICALLY CALLED OUR MULTI PROGRAMS BECAUSE WE ARE OFFERING A FACILITY FOR ALL OF OUR PROGRAMS WITHIN OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT, FOR ALL OF OUR PROGRAMS WITHIN OUR HIGH SCHOOLS.

SO THAT IS SO IT'S VERY PURPOSEFUL ON THE NAME OF THE FACILITY.

THERE IT IS. OKAY. THANK YOU SIR. ALL RIGHT.

AGAIN, THIS IS THE SO OUR BOND PROGRAM IS MADE UP OF THREE SEPARATE PROPOSITIONS.

IT'S A $1.279 BILLION DOLLAR PROP. AND THIS IS OUR TIMELINE THAT WE HAVE.

WE STILL ARE ON TIME FOR ALL OF OUR FIVE PHASES.

WE ARE IN 2026, SO WE ARE LOOKING AT COMPLETING A LOT OF OUR PHASE ONE PROJECTS WILL BE COMING TO WRAPS, AND THEN WE'LL BE MOVING AS YOU SEE, SOME OF ALL OF OUR PHASE TWOS AND THREES ARE ACTUALLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION.

AND OUR PHASE FOURS ARE MOVING ALONG QUITE NICELY.

SO A LITTLE BIT OF UPDATE ON OUR BASEBALL PROGRAM, SOFTBALL, BASEBALL IMPROVEMENTS.

THE LAST PORTION OF THAT IS PART THREE THAT IS THE GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL FACILITY.

AND IT IS LOCATED AT THE WILLIAMS STADIUM AREA.

AND SO JUST TO BE, TO SHARE WITH YOU, WE'VE GOT CHEMICAL INJECTIONS HAVE HAVE COMMENCED.

WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF A HICCUP. OUR CITY ASKED US TO PROVIDE THEM SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR THE CHEMICAL THAT WE ARE USING IN THAT FACILITY. AND SO WE WORKED WITH TCEQ. WE PROVIDED THEM THE INFORMATION THAT THEY NEEDED.

THEY SENT US THE RESPONSE BACK THERE. EVERYONE IS FINE WITH THE CHEMICALS THAT WE'RE USING TO DO CHEMICAL INJECTION IN THAT SITE.

AND SO THAT'S VERY NORMAL. IT'S WHAT WE'VE DONE WITH LAKEVIEW.

LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL AS FAR AS THE SOFTBALL FIELD.

SAME PROCESS THAT WE'RE USING THERE. THIS IS AN UPDATE OF THAT FIELD.

AGAIN, THE MANUEL & MARIA VALLE FACILITY HAS BEEN RAISED.

AND SO IT IS NO LONGER THERE. AND SO NOW WE'VE GOT ACCESS INTO THIS COMPLETE SITE.

AND SO WE'RE WORKING WITH OUR HILLIS WHO'S OUR CONTRACTOR TO BEGIN THE SOFTBALL PORTION AND THEN THE BASEBALL PORTION.

THIS IS THE FIELD HOUSE MULTI-PROGRAM ACTIVITY CENTERS GIVES YOU AN IDEA OF WHERE WE STAND WITH THE PERCENTAGE OF COMPLETION FOR THOSE.

AS YOU SEE THERE, THE ONE THAT THE ONE THAT'S TRAILING BEHIND IS LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL.

WE GOT STARTED LATE ON THAT ONE, BUT WE ARE QUICKLY MAKING UP PROGRESS ON THAT FACILITY.

SO THE GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL. THIS IS AN AERIAL VIEW OF GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL'S.

[00:05:06]

THIS IS THE AT WILLIAMS STADIUM. THIS IS THE INTERIOR OF THE MAC.

EACH FACILITY WILL BE UNIQUE TO EACH HIGH SCHOOL.

EACH ONE WILL HAVE THEIR TURF WILL BE LOCATED SPECIFICALLY FOR THEM.

THEY WILL HAVE GRAPHICS SPECIFICALLY FOR EACH HIGH SCHOOL.

SO WE'RE VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THERE.

THIS IS THE INTERIOR LOCKERS OF GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL'S FIELD HOUSE, AND THIS IS SOUTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL AERIAL.

THIS IS THE INTERIOR OF SOUTH GARLAND'S MAC. AND THIS IS THE WEIGHT ROOM OF SOUTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL.

SO EACH ONE, NOT ONLY DO THEY HAVE A WEIGHT ROOM, BUT THEY HAVE SPECIFIC GRAPHICS WITHIN THE FLOOR AND ON THE WALLS THAT WE WILL HAVE THERE.

THIS IS NORTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL AERIAL. NORTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL'S INTERIOR.

YOU CAN SEE EACH ONE OF THESE HAS A UNIQUE MASCOT.

THAT'S RIGHT AT THE 50. THIS IS NORTH GARLAND INTERIOR RESTROOM AREA.

THE LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL HIGH SCHOOL IS STILL OPEN.

THIS IS THE PICTURE OF THE MAC THAT YOU SEE THERE.

AND THIS IS THE INSIDE OF THE MAC, AN AREA OF NAAMAN FOREST.

THE GREAT THING ABOUT NAAMAN FOREST IS, AGAIN, WE'LL HAVE THAT RIBBON CUTTING ON THE 8TH OF AUGUST.

WE HAVE PHOTO HERE OF GIVING YOU WHAT THAT GRAPHIC LOOKS LIKE.

SO EACH ONE OF THESE ENTRIES IS VERY PROMINENT, VERY SPECIFIC TO THE CAMPUS.

SO WE THINK THIS IS GOING TO BE A FABULOUS ADDITION TO EACH ONE OF THESE FACILITIES.

THIS IS THE WEIGHT ROOM FOR NAAMAN FOREST WITH THE WEIGHTS BEING INSTALLED AT THE CAMPUS ROWLETT HIGH SCHOOL'S AERIAL, ROWLETT HIGH SCHOOL'S INTERIOR, AND YOU CAN SEE THE SIGNING GOING UP FOR ROWLETT HIGH SCHOOL.

SACHSE HIGH SCHOOL'S AERIAL AND THE INTERIOR FOR SACHSE HIGH SCHOOL, SACHSE HIGH SCHOOL'S INTERIOR LOCKER ROOM AND THEN WE GO TO FREEMAN ELEMENTARY. FREEMAN STILL PROGRESSING VERY NICELY.

I'LL GIVE YOU AN AERIAL SHOT OF FREEMAN ELEMENTARY.

IT'S COMING ALONG VERY NICELY. THE PART THAT YOU SEE IN THE BACK, THAT IS OUR EARLY CHILDHOOD AREA FOR OUR LITTLES THAT WILL BE USING THAT PORTION OF THE BUILDING VERY UNIQUELY. IT DOES HAVE A STORM SHELTER, SINCE THIS IS A NEW REQUIREMENT FOR ALL OF OUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.

SO THIS BUILDING WILL HAVE A STORM SHELTER. THIS IS SOME OF THE INTERIOR WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE INSIDE OF FREEMAN AND KIMBERLIN.

IT'S ON SCHEDULE AS WELL. THE WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THERE.

THIS IS AN AREA OF THE KIMBERLIN ACADEMY. IT ALSO HAS A STORM SHELTER IN THE FRONT END OF THE BUILDING.

YOU CAN SEE THERE AND VERY PROMINENT OF WHERE IT'S AT DAIRY AND MILLER.

SO IT'S A VERY PROMINENT BUILDING THERE. STAIRWELLS FABULOUS LOOKING STAIRWELLS.

ONCE EVERYTHING GETS ONCE THE BUILDING GETS BUILT, I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE AN AWESOME FACILITY FOR OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT.

LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL NAAMAN FOREST IF YOU'VE DRIVEN BY THESE TWO CAMPUSES, YOU'LL SEE THERE'S A LOT OF WORK TAKING PLACE.

AT LAKEVIEW THIS IS THE STORM SHELTER THAT GOES IN THERE.

THIS IS WHERE THE CLASSROOMS WILL BE, THE CLASSROOM ADDITION. SO IT ALSO HAS A STORM SHELTER AS PART OF THIS PROJECT.

SOME OF THE INTERIOR WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE AT LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL AND THEN NAAMAN FOREST, IT HAS A NEW ADDITION IN THE FRONT FOR THAT FACILITY.

AND YOU CAN SEE THE ROOF REPAIRS THAT ARE TAKING PLACE ALONG WITH THAT.

SO IT'S GOT NOT ONLY THE ADDITION BUT REPLACING OF THE ROOF ON THAT FACILITY.

SO THIS IS GOING TO SEQUENCE A LITTLE BIT. WE'VE GOT SOME WORK AT NAAMAN.

WE'LL BE MOVING THE LOCKER ROOMS AND WHAT HAVE YOU.

THOSE SUPPORTING AREAS ARE MOVING TO THE MAC.

AND THOSE AREAS WILL TRANSITION OVER TO THE FINE ARTS SPACE.

AND SO ONCE THAT FINISHES, ONCE WE TRANSITION ALL THE STUDENTS, THEN WE'LL START THE NAAMAN FOREST INTERIOR WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THERE.

THIS IS THE SCIENCE LABS AT NAAMAN FOREST. THE ELEMENTARY FENCING THAT IS PROGRESSING WELL.

WE'VE GOT 14 CAMPUSES THAT ARE COMPLETE OUT OF THE 37.

AND THIS IS GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF WHAT WE HAVE THERE.

SOME OF THESE WILL HAVE VEHICULAR GATES. SO THEY WILL BE TIED INTO OUR SECURITY SYSTEM SO THAT YOU CAN USE YOUR BADGE TO GAIN ACCESS TO IT. OR YOU CAN USE A CALL BUTTON TO GAIN ACCESS TO THAT.

AND AS YOU CAN SEE, THE VEHICULAR GATE ENTRIES THAT WE HAVE ON SPECIFIC ONES.

OKAY. THE FIRE ALARMS, WE'VE GOT 13 DONE OUT OF THE 39.

WE'RE PROGRESSING THROUGH THAT WORK. AND AGAIN, THAT WORK TAKES PLACE AT NIGHT, SO SHOULD NOT BE INTERRUPTION SHOULD NOT BE ANY

[00:10:03]

INTERRUPTION TO STUDENT LEARNING THAT'S TAKING PLACE AT EACH ONE OF THOSE CAMPUSES.

THE SECURITY CAMERA REFRESH, THE PROGRESS OF THE WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THERE.

WE DID START A LITTLE LATE ON THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT JUST FROM A CONTRACTING PERSPECTIVE, BUT WE'VE SINCE BEEN ABLE TO CATCH UP. AND SO WE'RE PROGRESSING THROUGH THE WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE ON THAT, ALONG WITH THE ACCESS CONTROL, SAME CONTRACTOR THAT'S DOING THE WORK.

AND SO MOVING FORWARD WITH THE ACCESS CONTROL AND THE UPGRADES THAT WE'RE DOING THERE.

LINDA GRIFFIN ELEMENTARY. IF YOU'VE TAKEN A DRIVE BY THAT, AGAIN, THIS IS THE LINDA GRIFFIN ELEMENTARY THAT REPLACES OUR MONTCLAIR FORMER MONTCLAIR ELEMENTARY. IT IS NOW RAISED. AND YOU SEE THERE, THIS IS SOMEWHAT OF A DATED PHOTO.

YOU CAN SEE THE DRILLING RIG THAT IS THERE. WE NOW HAVE PIERS AND GRADE BEAMS THAT ARE BEING INSTALLED AT THAT FACILITY.

SO THAT IS PROGRESSING VERY NICELY. THE CARSON-MULKEY AGRICULTURAL SCIENCE CENTER SO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON THIS ONE.

WE ARE WORKING WITH THE CITY OF SACHSE. WE'VE GOTTEN THE CITY OF SACHSE TO AGREE THAT BUILDING B BECAUSE OF THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE PERTAINING TO THAT FACILITY, IT DOES NOT REQUIRE A STORM SHELTER.

THEY'VE AGREED TO THAT. WE HAVE SOME ADDITIONAL MEETINGS WITH THE CITY OF SACHSE REGARDING ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS THAT THEY'VE ASKED FOR THAT ARE SPECIFIC TO THAT BUILDING.

AND SO WE'RE WORKING WITH THE ARCHITECT AND SCHEDULING MEETINGS WITH THE CITY TO VET THAT THROUGH.

SO WE BELIEVE WE'VE CAPTURED EVERYTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE CAPTURED WITHIN THIS NEW FACILITY.

SOUTH GARLAND, NORTH GARLAND, THE WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THERE.

IF YOU GO BY THOSE TWO SCHOOLS. THERE'S QUITE A BIT OF ACTIVITY.

SO WE'VE GOT THREE CONTRACTORS OUT OUT THERE, ONE CONTRACTOR THAT'S BUILDING THE MAC, ANOTHER ONE THAT'S BUILDING THE ATHLETIC AREAS, THE FOOTBALL FIELDS AND TRACKS, AND ANOTHER CONTRACTOR THAT'S DOING THE ROOFS AND THE INTERIOR WORK.

THE INTERIOR WORK WILL START NEXT SUMMER, BUT TODAY WE'RE FOCUSING ON THE ROOFS AT NORTH GARLAND AND SOUTH GARLAND.

SO AGAIN, WHAT WE WILL DO IS ENSURE THAT PRIOR TO STUDENT, PRIOR TO TEACHERS COMING BACK THIS WEEK, THAT ALL OF OUR LOGISTICS LAY DOWN, YARDS ARE TAKEN CARE OF AND THAT WE HAVE WE'VE GOT PROPER SIGNAGE.

AND SO THAT THE TEACHERS KNOW EXACTLY WHERE TEACHERS AND STAFF KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THEY NEED TO PARK BECAUSE THESE CAMPUSES ARE ACTIVE CONSTRUCTION CAMPUSES.

SO WE WILL HAVE A LOT OF ACTIVITY TAKING PLACE THERE, VERY DIFFERENT THAN WHAT THEY LEFT WHEN THEY LEFT IN MAY.

THIS IS GOING TO BE A DIFFERENT. AND SO THEY'LL NEED SOME ASSISTANCE THERE. SO WE'RE WORKING DIRECTLY WITH THE CAMPUS STAFF TO COMMUNICATE OUR LOGISTICS PLANS FOR THESE CAMPUSES, ALONG WITH LAKEVIEW, EXCUSE ME, ALONG WITH NORTHLAKE, ROWLETT AND TOLER.

WE'RE DOING THE EXACT SAME THING THERE. THESE CAMPUSES HERE, WE'VE GOT ROOF REPLACEMENTS AT TOLER AND ROWLETT, A LOT OF WORK THAT WAS TAKING PLACE OVER THE SUMMER AND ABATEMENT THAT FOR NORTH LAKE THAT IS ONGOING.

AND SO WE'RE WORKING THROUGH ALL OF THOSE. SO THIS IS THE TOLER ROOF.

IT'S NOT THAT PICTURE IS SOMEWHAT DATED. IT'S THAT IS THE SECOND TO THE FINAL PIECE.

THE AGGREGATE NEEDS TO GO ON TOP OF THAT. AND SO WE HAVE THE AGGREGATE THERE NOW.

THIS IS THE INTERIOR OF TOLER. AGAIN TOLER ROWLETT AND NORTH LAKE ARE OPEN CONCEPT FACILITIES THAT WE ARE CLOSING IN INDIVIDUAL CAMPUSES, INDIVIDUAL CLASSROOMS. SO EACH CLASSROOM WILL BE INDIVIDUALIZED, HAVING ITS OWN ACCESS INTO A DOUBLE LOADED CORRIDOR.

THIS IS ROWLETT'S ROOF. THE ROWLETT CORRIDOR FOR THE KINDER AREA AND NORTHLAKES AREA FOR THE KINDER AREA.

THE 23 CAMPUSES FOR THE FENCING AND THE PHASE TWO.

THIS INVOLVES OUR HIGH SCHOOLS, MIDDLE SCHOOLS, AND SPECIAL SERVICES CAMPUSES.

WE ARE FINALIZING 100% CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS AND WE PLAN TO ISSUE THAT NEXT MONTH AND PUT THAT OUT FOR SOLICITATION.

BEAVER TECHNOLOGY, GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL AND CARVER ELEMENTARY.

THAT IS OUR INTRUSION ALARM SYSTEM. AND SO THOSE THREE ARE IN PROCESS.

NOW, I BELIEVE WE'VE RECEIVED THE PURCHASE ORDERS FOR GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL AND CARVER, SO WE'RE SCHEDULING THAT WORK AS WELL.

THIS WILL BE DONE AT ON OFF HOURS. THIS IS AN UPDATE ON OUR DDC CONTROLS.

WE'VE GOT HAD 31 OF THE 48 CAMPUSES, AND WE PROJECT TO BE FINISHED WITH THIS IN JULY OF NEXT YEAR.

SO WALNUT GLEN ACADEMY, WE ARE STILL WORKING THROUGH THAT PROJECT THERE.

AND SO A LOT OF WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE ON THAT ONE.

SOUTH GARLAND, NORTH GARLAND, LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL.

THIS IS OUR ATHLETIC PACKAGE. AGAIN, THIS IS THE ONE THAT HAS THEY HAVE A NEW SYNTHETIC TURF, A NEW RUNNING TRACK, NEW BLEACHERS, NEW PRESS BOXES, NEW CONCESSION STANDS, NEW RESTROOMS NEW LIGHTING SYSTEM,

[00:15:06]

SPORTS LIGHTING FOR OUR STUDENTS. SO I THINK, I THINK AT THE END OF THE DAY, WHEN STUDENTS COME BACK AND THEY'RE ABLE TO ACCESS THESE FACILITIES THEY WILL NOT LOOK LIKE THE OLD NORTH GARLAND AND SOUTH GARLAND.

THESE THINGS ARE GOING TO BE FANTASTIC FOR OUR STUDENTS.

SO WE'RE EXTREMELY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. THIS IS NORTH GARLAND'S WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THERE.

YOU CAN SEE THE STANDS HAVE NOW BEEN REMOVED AND THE FORMER RESTROOMS, THOSE ARE NOW GONE.

AUSTIN ACADEMY. JACKSON. EXCUSE ME. AUSTIN ACADEMY.

HOUSTON MIDDLE SCHOOL, JACKSON TECHNOLOGY. ABBETT AND BRADFIELD.

WE'VE GOT A LOT OF WORK TAKING PLACE AT AUSTIN, HOUSTON AND JACKSON.

SO AUSTIN ACADEMY, WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT THERE IS AN OPENING THAT USED TO BE A CORRIDOR THERE.

AND SO WE'VE TAKEN THAT OUT. WHAT WE'RE DOING PRIOR TO TEACHERS GETTING BACK.

WE WILL HAVE A TEMPORARY CORRIDOR THAT ALLOWS TEACHERS AND STUDENTS TO GAIN PATHWAY BETWEEN ONE BUILDING TO THE OTHER BUILDING.

AND SO THE REASON THAT'S BEING DONE IS WE'RE ADDING AN ADDITION ON THAT SIDE OF THE BUILDING AND SOME OF THE WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THERE.

SO WE ARE WORKING REALLY CLOSELY WITH THAT CONTRACTOR THERE.

THIS IS A VERY TIGHT SITE, A LOT OF WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE OVER THE SUMMER, BUT WE'RE COMING DOWN TO THE WIRE ON THIS ONE.

THIS IS A HOUSTON MIDDLE SCHOOL ROOF THE WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THERE SO THERE'S QUITE A BIT OF ROOF WORK THAT'S BEING DONE AS PART OF THIS BOND PROGRAM.

THIS IS THE LOCKER ROOM AREA WITHIN THE HOUSTON MIDDLE SCHOOL.

AGAIN, THIS BOND PROGRAM IS UPGRADING THE LOCKER ROOMS FOR ALL OF OUR MIDDLE SCHOOLS SO THAT OUR STUDENTS CAN HAVE APPROPRIATE FACILITIES FOR WHERE THE ATHLETIC PROGRAM AND THE PE PROGRAM.

THIS IS JACKSON MIDDLE SCHOOL'S ROOF. THE INTERIOR OF JACKSON MIDDLE SCHOOL AND OUR OUR DR, MARVIN D. RODEN TECHNOLOGY CENTER. THAT ONE IS COMING ALONG REAL NICELY.

WE SHOULD START TO SEE SOME. WE SHOULD START TO SEE SOME ERECTION GOING ON HERE PRETTY QUICKLY.

SO THIS PICTURE IS A LITTLE DATED ON WHAT WE'RE DOING THERE.

SO WE SHOULD START GETTING READY TO START DOING SOME STEEL ERECTION THERE.

SO THIS IS A CONNECTION TO THE NATATORIUM. AGAIN, THOSE TWO FACILITIES WILL BE CONNECTED VIA A DRIVE THAT WASN'T DONE BEFORE.

AND SO THE GRCTC EDITION. OUR GOAL IS TO BRING YOU THIS ONE.

WE HAVE A GMP NUMBER ONE, THIS IS GOING TO BE BROKEN UP INTO TWO GMP'S.

GMP NUMBER ONE, WE PLAN TO BRING THAT TO YOU FOR RECOMMENDATION NEXT MONTH ON THE 11TH.

AND GMP NUMBER TWO, WE PLAN TO BRING YOU BACK IN OCTOBER FOR THAT ONE.

SO THAT'S A LOT OF WORK TAKING PLACE THERE. AGAIN, THE CTC, THAT WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THAT WILL HAVE A STORM SHELTER FOR THAT FACILITY AS PART OF, AS PART OF THE PROJECT THAT WE'RE DOING THERE.

ROWLETT, SACHSE ROWLETT HIGH SCHOOL AND SACHE HIGH SCHOOL WE'RE STILL IN DESIGN.

WE HAVE ACTUALLY WE BELIEVE WE'VE MADE SOME REALLY GOOD HEADWAY AND BEEN ABLE TO ALLOCATE THE PROPER SPACE FOR OUR FINE ARTS DANCE PROGRAMS AND OUR DRILL TEAM PROGRAMS FOR ROWLETT AND SACHSE.

SO WE WILL UTILIZE THE EXISTING FIELD HOUSES.

WE WILL UTILIZE A PORTION OF THE EXISTING FIELD HOUSES THAT WILL SERVE AS OUR DANCE AND OUR DRILL TEAM AREAS, SO WE'LL HAVE DANCE SPACE FOR THEM. WE ARE LOOKING AT PROVIDING ACCOMMODATIONS FOR OUR CHEER AT BOTH OF THESE CAMPUSES.

SO A LITTLE BIT OF A LITTLE BIT OF BACKWARDS LOOKING BOTH THESE HIGH SCHOOLS WHEN THEY WERE BUILT, ROWLETT AND SACHSE, WE ARE USING THE GYM PE'S LOCKERS FOR OUR CHEER PROGRAM. SO THEY SHARE THAT PROGRAM.

WE DID THAT BACK IN WHEN WE FIRST OPENED THESE BUILDINGS.

QUITE FRANKLY, NOBODY DOES THAT ANYMORE. NO ONE SHARES THAT THE GYM SPACES, GYM SPACE, GYM LOCKERS ARE GYM LOCKERS.

WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO HERE IS WE'RE GOING TO BREAK THAT UP.

CHEER WILL HAVE THEIR OWN LOCKER SPACE NOW FOR ROWLETT AND SACHSE.

WE'RE DOING WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE YEARS AGO FOR THESE STUDENTS, AND SO THEY WILL HAVE THEIR SEPARATE LOCKER ROOM FOR CHEER BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN COMBINED WITH PE. SO WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT DOING THAT FOR OUR STUDENTS TO BEING ABLE TO PROVIDE THEM THE SPACE THAT THEY NEED FOR LEARNING.

BRANDENBURG MIDDLE SCHOOL ALLOWS MIDDLE SCHOOL O'BANION MIDDLE SCHOOL. THAT'S A PHASE FOUR PROJECT.

AND WE'RE STILL VETTING OUT THE DESIGN PROCESS FOR THAT.

AND SO VETTING OUT THE ACTUAL CONCEPTS SO THAT WE CAN BRING, SO WE CAN START LOOKING AT AN STB PACKAGE.

[00:20:06]

SAME THING FOR BUSSEY, SELLERS AND SHOREHAVEN, WEBB MIDDLE SCHOOL AND WILLIAMS ELEMENTARY.

WE'RE FINALIZING THE DESIGN CONCEPTS SO THAT WE CAN START WORKING ON AN STB PACKAGE.

PARSONS PRE-K, CISNEROS PRE-K. WHERE WE'RE AT THERE IS, IS THAT ONE IS PLANNING TO IF YOU SEE THE SCHEDULE UP ON TOP THIS IS ACTUALLY DESIGNED TO BE A SUMMER PROJECT.

THE ROOF WORK THAT'S TAKING PLACE THERE IT'S ROOF WORK.

THE MAJORITY OF THE WORK THERE IS ROOF WORK AND SOME HVAC REPLACEMENT UNITS AT PARSONS.

AND SO WE OBVIOUSLY CAN'T DO THAT WORK WHILE STUDENTS ARE IN THE BUILDING.

AND SO IT'S BEEN PURPOSELY LOOKED TO START FOR THE SUMMER OF NEXT YEAR IS WHEN WE'LL BE DOING THAT WORK.

THE NEW MEMORIAL PATHWAY ACADEMY, THE MANUEL AND MARIA VALLE STUDENT SERVICES CENTER WE PLAN TO BRING TO YOU AS PART OF THIS MEETING A RECOMMENDATION FOR A GMP FOR THAT PROJECT. OUR HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS LIGHTING REPLACEMENT THAT ONE IS, IS MOVING ALONG REALLY NICELY. WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE ALL OF OUR CAMPUSES WITH NEW SPORTS LIGHTING.

THE ONLY ONES THAT WERE RUNNING INTO A HICCUP RIGHT NOW IS NAAMAN FOREST FOOTBALL AND NAAMAN FOREST BASEBALL.

WORKING WITH THE CITY, EVERYTHING THAT WE HAVE TO DO HAS TO BE PERMITTED WITH THE CITY.

AND SO WE'VE RUN INTO A LITTLE BIT OF HICCUP ON THE BASEBALL PIECE REGARDING AN EASEMENT THAT WE HAVE THERE.

IT'S AN EXISTING, IT'S AN EASEMENT THAT WE ESTABLISHED WITH GARLAND POWER LIGHT MANY YEARS AGO.

AND SO WE'RE WORKING THROUGH THAT WITH THE CITY.

SO THAT ONE MAY BE A LITTLE DELAYED, BUT WE JUST RECEIVED OUR PERMIT FOR THE FOOTBALL FIELD.

SO WE'RE WORKING REALLY AGGRESSIVELY TO TRY TO GET THAT FOOTBALL FIELD DONE BEFORE STUDENTS RETURN AT NAAMAN FOREST.

OUR NEW TRANSPORTATION CENTER WE'VE BEEN VISITING WITH THE EXCUSE ME, WITH THE ARCHITECT.

WE BELIEVE WE HAVE A REALLY NICE CONCEPT TO WORK WITH.

WE'VE ALSO WORKED WITH OUR TRANSPORTATION GROUP.

WE'VE GOT A, WHAT WE BELIEVE TO BE A GOOD BUILDING FROM A SQUARE FOOTAGE WISE AND SUPPORT THAT IT DOES FOR OUR TRANSPORTATION GROUP.

AND SO WE BRING IN THAT FORWARD. GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL RENOVATIONS.

SO WE HAVE QUITE FRANKLY, I'LL TELL YOU, WE STRUGGLED WITH THE GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL RENOVATION AND WHERE WE STRUGGLE WITH THE GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL RENOVATION WAS PROVIDING SPACE FOR OUR DANCE PROGRAM. OUR DANCE PROGRAM TODAY AT GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL WHILE WE HAVE, WE HAVE A FANTASTIC DANCE PROGRAM AT GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL, BUT THEY PRACTICE IN THE LOBBY OF THE AUDITORIUM AND THEY'VE BEEN PRACTICING THERE FOR MANY, MANY YEARS. SO WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION FOR THEM.

WE'RE LOOKING AT DOING A VERY SMALL ADDITION THERE TO SUPPORT THE DANCE PROGRAM.

OUR DEBS PROGRAM, WHICH IS OUR DRILL TEAM. THEY WILL CONTINUE TO STAY IN THEIR EXISTING GYM, WHICH IS GARLAND HAS THREE GYMS THAT WILL CONTINUE TO UTILIZE THAT.

WE WILL DO A REFRESH OF THEIR LOCKER ROOMS ALONG WITH CHEER.

WE WILL PROVIDE LOCKER ROOMS FOR CHEER FOR GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL, WHERE THEY'RE AT TODAY.

CHEER ACTUALLY DRESSES IN THE RESTROOMS, SO WE WILL TAKE CARE OF THAT.

SO WE'RE AGAIN, WE'RE EXTREMELY EXCITED AND WE'RE HONORED TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THESE NEW FACILITIES FOR OUR STUDENTS AS PART OF THIS BOND PROGRAM.

COYLE, HUDSON, SCHRADE, STEPHENS AND WATSON. AGAIN, WE VETTED THAT PROGRAM OUT AND WE'VE GOT A LITTLE TWERKING THAT WE NEED TO DO.

TWEAKING, NOT TWERKING, TWEAKING. EXCUSE ME. [LAUGHTER] A LITTLE TWEAKING THAT WE NEED TO DO.

I THINK WE'D ALL STICK AROUND FOR THAT JAVIER. OKAY.

SO YEAH, WE'RE JUST TWEAKING THAT OUT A LITTLE BIT AND WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET A SCOPE TO BUDGET HERE PRETTY QUICK ON THAT ONE.

OKAY. OUR MARVIN PADGETT, TAX OFFICE AND TRANSITION CENTER.

WE THINK WE'VE MADE SOME REALLY GOOD HEADWAY WITH THAT. THAT ONE AGAIN WILL BE WORKING THAT'S A ROOF REPLACEMENT FOR THAT FACILITY, THE TAX OFFICE AND TRANSITION CENTER. SO THAT HAS TO BE DONE.

WE'VE GOT A VERY SHORT WINDOW THAT WE NEED TO GET THAT DONE.

SO WE'RE WORKING THAT EARLY NEXT YEAR TO GET THAT TAKEN CARE OF.

WE'RE ALSO ADDRESSING A LOT OF THE WATER ISSUES THAT WE HAVE AT PADGETT THE PAVING THAT'S THERE.

YOU DRIVE BY PADGETT, WE HAVE A LOT OF ASPHALT THERE THAT WILL BE CONVERTED OVER TO CONCRETE.

SO WE ELIMINATE ALL OF THOSE POTHOLES THAT WE HAVE THERE.

AND THEN FINALLY, OUR HARRIS HILL ROOF REPLACEMENT.

WE'LL BE MOVING FORWARD HERE PRETTY QUICKLY. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'RE TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH. WE'VE GOT ABOUT 50% DONE ON THE SCHEMATIC DESIGN DRAWING,

[00:25:06]

EXCUSE ME, ON THE CDS. AND SO WE THINK WE ARE MOVING PRETTY RAPIDLY ON THAT ONE.

THAT WILL REQUIRE, A LOT OF MOVING PARTS WITHIN THIS FACILITY.

ONCE WE START THE CONSTRUCTION, BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT TO BE DOING A ROOF REPLACEMENT OVER AN OCCUPIED AREA.

SO WE WILL BE SHIFTING DEPARTMENTS WITHIN THE THIRD FLOOR AS WE DO CONSTRUCTION.

AND THEN FINALLY OUR PROP C, WE CONTINUE TO DO DEPLOYMENT OF TEACHERS AND STUDENT LAPTOPS.

AND THAT WILL CONTINUE TO PROGRESS THROUGH DECEMBER OF 2026.

AND SO WE'VE DONE QUITE A BIT OF WORK WHEN IT COMES TO PROP C.

OKAY. AND WITH THAT, WE'LL TAKE ANY QUESTIONS THAT THE BOARD MAY HAVE.

BOARD MEMBERS ANY QUESTIONS ON THESE ITEMS? MS. STANLEY. THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION. IT'S REALLY VERY EXCITING TO SEE ALL THESE PROJECTS ALL OVER THE PLACE.

I HAVE A QUESTION. WHEN AS WE'RE DOING THE FENCING OF OUR, I THINK IT'S PRIMARILY PROBABLY ELEMENTARIES THAT HAVE LIKE THE GARDENS AND FLOWER BEDS THAT THE KIDS AND SOME OF THE PTA PARENTS MAINTAIN ARE THOSE INSIDE THE FENCING OR OUTSIDE THE FENCING.

AND IF THEY'RE INSIDE THE FENCING, HOW ARE WE ALLOWING ACCESS TO THOSE? IT'S A GOOD QUESTION. I'LL HAVE TO GO BACK. I DON'T KNOW SPECIFICALLY, WHICH.

I KNOW WE HAVE QUITE A FEW GARDENS OUT THERE.

WE, I CAN'T TELL YOU SPECIFICALLY WHICH ONES, WHICH ONES ARE INSIDE OR WHICH ONES ARE OUTSIDE OF THE FENCING.

I CAN ADDRESS THE ONES THAT ARE INSIDE THE FENCING.

THE ADVANTAGE THAT WE HAVE IS WE HAVE WHAT WE CALL.

I THINK THE PROPER TERM IS A MANNED GATE, BUT WE CALL THEM PEOPLE GATES NOW.

AND SO THAT GATE HAS GOT A CARD ACCESS TO IT.

IT ALSO HAS THE ABILITY TO CALL INSIDE. SO LET'S SAY FOR EXAMPLE, WE HAVE WHEN IT COMES TO MIND IS THE MASTER'S PROGRAM, GARDEN MASTER'S PROGRAM, AND WE HAVE AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS ASSISTING OUR STUDENTS.

WE CAN ACTUALLY ASSIGN A BADGE SPECIFICALLY TO THAT PERSON, SPECIFICALLY JUST FOR THAT DOOR, AND WE CAN ASSIGN TIMES TO GAIN ACCESS TO THAT.

SO THAT'S THE ADVANTAGE OF PUTTING EVERYTHING ON OUR CARD ACCESS.

SO WE'RE DOING ACCESS CONTROL. SO WHEN WE SAY WE HAVE CARD READERS WELL YES WE HAVE CARD READERS.

BUT THE REALLY, THE REAL THING IS, IS WE HAVE ACCESS CONTROL, MEANING THAT THE DISTRICT CONTROLS THE ACCESS.

WHETHER YOU HAVE A BADGE LIKE MINE, WE CAN CONTROL THE HOURS, THE DAYS, AND WE CAN TURN IT OFF WITH A FLICK OF A SWITCH.

AND SO IF I LOSE MY BADGE, IT CAN BE TURNED OFF AT A FLICK OF A SWITCH.

SO IF SO WHO WOULD IF A, A PTA OR VOLUNTEERS NEEDS TO COORDINATE GETTING THAT ACCESS, IS THAT SOMETHING THEY DO PER CAMPUS. YES. OKAY.

SO THEY WOULD JUST GO SEE ADMINISTRATION AND CAMPUS.

YES. AND THEN IT WOULD. AND THEY WOULD WORK WITH OUR SECURITY DEPARTMENT.

OKAY. PERFECT. THANK YOU. ANYTHING ELSE FROM THE BOARD? OH, MR. SELDERS. THANK YOU FOR THAT PRESENTATION.

REAL QUICK ON THE FENCING AND THEN THE SECURITY CAMERA REFRESH.

I KNOW AT ONE POINT WE TALKED ABOUT HAVING VISIBILITY AT THOSE ENTRY POINTS.

HAS THAT CHANGED AT ALL? NO SIR. OKAY. WE STILL HAVE TO HAVE VISIBILITY AT EVERY ONE OF THOSE.

EVERY ONE OF THOSE WHAT WE CALL PEOPLE GATES.

PEOPLE GATES. AND SO WE'RE ARE WE IDENTIFYING OR PLACING THE CAMERAS IS GOING TO BE ON THE BUILDING OR IS IT GOING TO BE.

YES, THERE WILL BE. SO WE HAVE CAMERAS. SO WE'RE COORDINATING.

THERE'S TWO PROJECTS THAT ARE THERE. SO WE'RE COORDINATING THE THE SECURITY CAMERA PROJECT ALONG WITH FENCING PROJECT.

AND SO THERE'S A LOT OF COORDINATION THAT'S HAPPENING BETWEEN THOSE TWO.

SO WE WANT TO ENSURE THAT THE CAMERAS, THERE MAY BE SOME EXISTING CAMERAS THAT CAN ACTUALLY SEE THAT AREA.

AND IF NOT, WE'RE ADDING CAMERAS TO VIEW EVERY ONE OF THOSE.

SO THERE SHOULD BE NO ENTRY POINT WITHIN OUR FACILITIES, WHETHER IT IS A LET ME JUST SAY THIS.

I CAN SAY THIS CORRECTLY. OUR ENTRY POINTS WITHIN OUR FACILITY, WE MUST HAVE, WE MUST BE ABLE TO VIEW THAT ENTRY POINT. SO BEFORE WE STARTED THIS PROGRAM, WE HAD ACCESS TO THE ENTRY POINT VIA A CAMERA IN THE HALLWAY THAT WE WOULD SET UP A CAMERA INSIDE THE HALLWAY.

AND SO IF SOMEONE CAME IN FROM AN EXTERIOR DOOR AND WAS COMING THROUGH THAT DOOR, WE COULD SEE THAT THROUGH THE HALLWAY CAMERA.

OKAY, SO WE'VE ALWAYS HAD THAT PIECE. NOW, SINCE WE'RE ADDING AN ADDITIONAL LAYER OF SECURITY,

[00:30:03]

WHICH IS A FENCE AND ANOTHER DOOR ON THAT FENCE.

A GATE, IF YOU WILL. WE HAVE TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO THAT AS WELL, SO NOTHING CHANGES FOR US.

IT'S ALL THE SAME. IT'S JUST IT'S ADDING A CAMERA IF WE NEED TO OR REPOSITIONING A CAMERA IF WE NEED TO, BUT WE WILL HAVE CAMERA ACCESS TO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE GATES AND EVEN EVEN EXCUSE ME.

I DIDN'T MEAN TO PAUSE, BUT ALSO THE VEHICULAR GATES.

SO IN ADDITION TO JUST THE PEOPLE GATE THAT SOMEONE WALKS UP TO THE GATE, WE ARE ALSO HAVING A CAMERA THAT'S VISIBLE TO THE VEHICULAR GATES THAT WE'RE ADDING. BECAUSE IF SOMEONE COMES INTO VEHICULAR GATE, WE WILL HAVE A CALL BUTTON THERE.

SO THERE'S GOING TO BE A CALL BUTTON THERE, SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU SEE WITH OUR CAMPUSES TODAY, WHERE YOU COME TO THE FRONT DOOR AND YOU PUSH THE BUTTON. HI, MY NAME IS MR. FERNANDEZ. I'M HERE TO PICK UP MY CHILD. IF YOU GO TO THAT VEHICULAR GATE AND YOU DON'T HAVE A BADGE, YOU YOU CAN PUSH A BUTTON. THAT BUTTON WILL RING TO THE FRONT OFFICE, AND THAT FRONT OFFICE WILL BE ABLE TO SEE WHO YOU ARE WITH A CAMERA, AND THEN DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT THEY OPEN THE GATE FOR YOU.

GOT IT. THE REASON WHY I WAS ASKING THE QUESTION WAS BECAUSE I WAS WONDERING IF THE LIST THAT YOU HAVE IN THIS DOCUMENT THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT, ARE THOSE THE CAMPUSES WHERE WE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE ADDED CAMERAS BECAUSE YOU MENTIONED THAT WE MIGHT USE EXISTING CAMERAS, BUT WE MIGHT HAVE TO ADD CAMERAS. AND I'M JUST CURIOUS TO KNOW IF WE'VE ALREADY IDENTIFIED WHERE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO ADD CAMERAS.

I DON'T HAVE THAT ANSWER IN FRONT OF ME, BUT I CAN GET YOU THAT ANSWER, SIR. OKAY. I CAN TELL YOU SPECIFICALLY WHICH ONES WE HAVE TO ADD CAMERAS TO GAIN ACCESS TO THAT AND WHICH ONES WE'RE GOING TO UTILIZE EXISTING CAMERAS.

I WILL SAY THAT THE CAMERA REFRESH IS WE'RE REPLACING.

SO WE'RE ACTUALLY REPLACING A LOT OF CAMERAS INCREASING THEIR PIXEL FROM SOME OF THE A LOT OF OUR CAMERAS ARE BEING REPLACED.

WE DO HAVE SOME OLDER WELL, WE DO HAVE SOME NEWER CAMERAS THAT ARE IN SPORADIC AREAS THAT ARE NOT GOING TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THEY'VE JUST BEEN RECENTLY INSTALLED. BUT WE DO HAVE SOME OLDER CAMERAS THAT WE'RE CHANGING OUT AND ENHANCING THE PIXELS THAT WE HAVE THERE, BUT WE CAN PROVIDE YOU SPECIFICALLY THE CAMPUS AND THE LOCATION WHERE WE'RE HAVING TO ADD A CAMERA FOR THAT GATE.

WE CAN GET THAT TO YOU. COOL. AND THEN ONE LAST QUESTION. I NOTICED THAT I KNOW WE'RE DOING A FAIR AMOUNT OF ROOF REPLACEMENTS OR ROOF WORK.

WHAT'S THE TYPICAL LIFESPAN OR EXPECTED LIFESPAN ON THOSE ROOFS AS WE'RE WORKING ON IT.

AND I KNOW IT WILL DEPEND ON A LOT OF DIFFERENT FACTORS, BUT JUST TYPICALLY, WHAT IS THAT? SO THE ROOFS THAT WE'RE PUTTING ON HAVE A 20 YEAR LIFE WARRANTY ON THEM, TYPICALLY 20 YEARS, WHAT WE SEE ROOFS, IF THEY'RE MAINTAINED, YOU CAN GET 2025 DEPENDING ON THE TYPE OF ROOF.

SO THOSE ARE THE ROOFS THAT WE'RE WE ARE INSTALLING TODAY.

OKAY. SO WORKING WITH OUR MAINTENANCE STAFF AND ONCE THE ROOF GETS DONE, NOW I WILL SAY THAT YOU'VE SEEN SOME OF THESE ROOFS HERE AND SOME OF THESE YOU CALL THEM, WE CALL THEM WHITE ROOFS.

AND BECAUSE IT'S JUST A WHITE MEMBRANE THAT GOES DOWN, THOSE ACTUAL ROOFS REQUIRE MAINTENANCE.

AND SO THEY REQUIRE PERIODIC WASHING DOWN SO THAT YOU CAN ENSURE THAT BECAUSE WHAT THEY DO IS THE REFLECTIVITY OF THAT ROOF REQUIRES THAT TO BE SCRUBBED DOWN SO THAT YOU CAN MAKE SURE THAT YOU, YOU KEEP THE REFLECTIVITY OF THAT.

AND SO YOU SEE TOLER AND ROWLETT, THOSE ARE A DIFFERENT TYPE OF ROOF.

THOSE ARE A WHITE AGGREGATE. SO THERE'S NO MAINTENANCE ON THAT.

THAT'S AN AGGREGATE THAT'S BEEN PUT ON IT. IT'S WHITE. AND SO THAT DOES A REFLECTIVITY. GOT IT.

THANK YOU. THAT'S IT. MR. GLICK THANK YOU SIR.

SO WOULD IT BE CORRECT TO SAY OTHER THAN WALNUT GLEN, THAT WILL BEGIN SOMETIME END OF THE FIRST QUARTER NEXT YEAR.

RIGHT. AND TRANSPORTATION, WHICH WE DON'T HAVE ANY DATES THAT EVERY OTHER MAJOR PROJECT WILL BE UNDER CONSTRUCTION THIS YEAR.

THE PHASE FOURS AND FIVES ARE STILL IN DESIGN.

NOW IS THAT SOME OF THE WHAT WE CALL HAVE CALLED THE ROWLETT ELEMENTARY MODEL THAT'S GOING TO BE COMING.

IS THAT PART OF THAT? SO THE ROWLETT ELEMENTARY MODEL INVOLVES THREE CAMPUSES.

ROWLETT, TOLER, AND LAKE AND NORTHLAKE. AND THOSE ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION NOW.

AND THOSE WILL CONTINUE THROUGH SUMMER OF NEXT YEAR.

AND THEN WE HAVE THE OTHER THE OTHER ENHANCEMENTS THAT WE HAVE TWO MORE PROJECTS THAT ARE PART OF THE ENHANCEMENTS.

WE'VE DEFERRED THOSE FOR NOW, BUT WE WILL BE KICKING THOSE BACK UP SO WE CAN START THOSE DESIGNS.

SO PRETTY CLEARLY ALL OF THE MAJOR PROJECTS OTHER THAN THOSE ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION OR WILL BE RELATIVELY SHORTLY.

[00:35:04]

RIGHT? OTHER THAN THE TRANSPORTATION THAT WE DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT AT THIS POINT.

THAT IS CORRECT. THAT'S CORRECT. WELL, MEMORIAL IS READY IT'S GOING TO START PRETTY SOON, RIGHT? YES, SIR. SO MEMORIAL, WE WILL BRING TO YOU TONIGHT A GMP FOR THAT.

AND SO AGAIN, BY THE END OF THE YEAR MEMORIAL YOU'LL SEE THAT CONSTRUCTION TAKING PLACE.

THAT WAS IT. THANK YOU SIR. MR. MILLER. YEAH.

THANK YOU. JUST REAL QUICK, FOR MAKE SURE I UNDERSTAND IN A LOT OF CAMPUSES, RIGHTFULLY SO.

WE'RE HAVING LOCKER ROOM REFRESHES AND THOSE KIND OF THINGS. WOULD YOU REFRESH MY MEMORY ON WHAT A LOCKER ROOM REFRESH IN GENERAL CONSIST OF? WHAT ARE WE DOING IN THOSE LOCKER ROOMS? BECAUSE PERSONALLY I'VE BEEN IN A BUNCH OF THEM.

AND WOW, WAS IT A TIME FOR US TO DO THIS. SO.

LET ME KNOW WHAT THAT IS. MIDDLE SCHOOL LOCKER ROOMS, NEW LOCKERS, NEW LAYOUTS.

AND SOME OF THEM, THEY'RE GETTING A BRAND NEW LAYOUT, NEW REFRESH THE FIXTURES THAT ARE BEING REPLACED IN THEM SOME OF THESE ARE DEPENDING ON THE SIZE OF THE LOCKER, THEY ARE EITHER BEING EXPANDED REFRESHED.

AND I'LL GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE, SOME OF OUR LOCKERS AT AUSTIN WE'RE BUILDING AN ADDITION, BUT IT'S A STORAGE ADDITION.

SO WE'RE ADDING AN ADDITION FOR STORAGE. SO WE'RE TAKING THE STORAGE THAT'S IN THE BUILDING, PUSHING IT OUT SO WE CAN SO WE CAN ENHANCE THE LOCKER ROOMS. SO NEW NEW LOCKERS NEW FIXTURE COUNT, NEW FIXTURES, REFRESHING OF THE BUILDING, BASICALLY A BRAND NEW ROOM FOR OUR STUDENTS.

ANY DIFFERENCES IN THE PLUMBING? YES. AND SO SOME OF THESE ARE CHANGING OUT THE FIXTURES.

THE LOCATION OF THE WATER FIXTURES IS IN SOME INSTANCES IS CHANGING.

OKAY. AND THE OTHER THING I NOTICED, AND I'M SURE Y'ALL WILL HAVE ADDRESSED IS IN WALKING THROUGH A LOT OF THE CAMPUSES SAW WAY TOO MANY EXTENSION CORDS RUNNING SO PEOPLE COULD, YOU KNOW, USE WHATEVER DEVICES THEY USE TO PREPARE TO GO BACK INTO SCHOOL OR TO GO PERFORM, WHETHER IT BE THE DEBS OR CHEERLEADERS OR WHOEVER, WHETHER IT BE CURLING IRONS OR BLOW DRYERS OR WHATEVER THINGS THAT ARE NEEDED TO PREP.

I SAW TOO MANY EXTENSION CORDS RUNNING TOO MANY PLACES, SO I HOPE YOU HAVE PLENTY OF ELECTRICAL STATIONS PROVIDED FOR THESE STUDENTS.

YOU KNOW, BOTH TO AS THEY GET READY TO PERFORM OR AS THEY GET READY TO GO BACK INTO THE CLASS.

THANK YOU. VERY GOOD POINT, SIR. VERY GOOD POINT.

OKAY. ANYTHING ELSE BOARD. I WILL POINT OUT THAT THIS VISUAL THAT YOU PUT OF THE GARLAND MAC, WHERE WE GOT TO SEE THE BIG G AND THE 50, I THINK IT'S LEFT TRUSTEE BEACH SPEECHLESS DOWN THERE.

[LAUGHTER] IT'S JUST BEEN TRANSFIXED BY THAT IMAGE EVER SINCE THEN, AND ALSO THE POSSIBILITY OF YOU TWERKING, WHICH EXCITED US ALL. [LAUGHTER] SO YOU'RE ABOUT TO MAKE JASON'S JOB VERY, VERY EASY.

I WOULD LIKE TO ALSO TO ITERATE THAT THAT'S THE TRADITIONAL G IS GOING TO BE USED AS THE OFFICIAL BRANDING FOR ALL.

GARLAND. IT'S IMPORTANT TO KNOW WE MOVED AWAY FROM THAT I AND WE'RE MOVING BACK TO THE TRADITIONAL G.

AND SO WE WANT EVERYBODY TO FEEL THAT NOSTALGIA WHEN THEY COME INTO A GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL FACILITY.
