54 <br /> 1 expands the scope beyond the Woolpert recommendations to include plumbing renovations, <br /> 2 bathroom renovations, and canopy and flooring replacements. The District notes that plumbing <br /> 3 replacement is due to waste drainage issues that cause the building not to have usable <br /> 4 bathrooms. The bathroom renovations are intended to make the classroom bathrooms Americans <br /> 5 with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant, and the canopy replacements will protect the building <br /> 6 against severe weather. The District also wanted to address flooring deficiencies since they were <br /> 7 already closing down wings to address other needs. In addition, the District did reach out to <br /> 8 Woolpert while scoping the project, and the consultant affirmed that the planned work did not <br /> 9 conflict with the recommended improvements and that the broader scope would improve the <br /> 10 building's condition and educational adequacy to some degree. <br /> 11 District staff have asked that the Board of Commissioners consider these amendments at the <br /> 12 earliest opportunity since the Efland Cheeks renovation project is already under contract and is <br /> 13 due to begin work over the summer. Advancing this project will also affect the amount of funding <br /> 14 available for other high priority needs that Woolpert has recommended and the related project <br /> 15 sequencing that will be presented to the Board at the June 4, 2024 Business meeting. <br /> 16 The proposed Budget Amendment #9-A amends the following project ordinances, reallocating <br /> 17 funds already in the School Capital Fund: <br /> River Park Elementary- OCS (-$546) -Project# 50001 <br /> Revenues for this project: <br /> Current FY 2023-24 FY 2023-24 <br /> FY 2023-24 Amendment Revised <br /> Bond Proceeds $135,000 $0 $135,000 <br /> Transfer from General Fund $390,468 ($546) $389,922 <br /> Total Project Funding $525,468 ($546) $524,922 <br /> Appropriated for this project: <br /> Current FY 2023-24 FY 2023-24 <br /> FY 2023-24 Amendment Revised <br /> Project Expenditures $525,468 ($546) $524,922 <br /> Total Costs $525,468 ($546) $524,922 <br /> Hillsborough Elementary- OCS (-$42,598) - Project#50005 <br /> Revenues for this project: <br /> Current FY 2023-24 FY 2023-24 <br /> FY 2023-24 Amendment Revised <br /> Transfer from General Fund $362,899 ($42,598) $320,301 <br />
