54 <br /> expands the scope beyond the Woolpert recommendations to include plumbing renovations, <br /> bathroom renovations, and canopy and flooring replacements. The District notes that plumbing <br /> replacement is due to waste drainage issues that cause the building not to have usable <br /> bathrooms. The bathroom renovations are intended to make the classroom bathrooms Americans <br /> with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant, and the canopy replacements will protect the building <br /> against severe weather. The District also wanted to address flooring deficiencies since they were <br /> already closing down wings to address other needs. In addition, the District did reach out to <br /> Woolpert while scoping the project, and the consultant affirmed that the planned work did not <br /> conflict with the recommended improvements and that the broader scope would improve the <br /> building's condition and educational adequacy to some degree. <br /> District staff have asked that the Board of Commissioners consider these amendments at the <br /> earliest opportunity since the Efland Cheeks renovation project is already under contract and is <br /> due to begin work over the summer.Advancing this project will also affect the amount of funding <br /> available for other high priority needs that Woolpert has recommended and the related project <br /> sequencing that will be presented to the Board at the June 4, 2024 Business meeting. <br /> The proposed Budget Amendment #9-A amends the following project ordinances, reallocating <br /> 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 />
