Scroggs, Assistant <br />Superintendent for Support Services <br />To: Neil G. Pedersen <br />Superintendent <br />From: Stephen A. Scr°oggs <br />Assistant Superintendent for Support Services <br />Re: Approval in Advance for CIP Projects <br />Date: Mazch 24, 2004 <br />Included is a proposal to the Board of Education for advance approval of Capital <br />Investment Plan projects. If approved, then a request for funding from the Board of <br />County Conunissioners would be made. This request is made at the recommendation of <br />Tolm Linlc, the County Manager. The purpose is to identify projects that must be <br />completed during the summer and where funding would be required before the adoption <br />of the CIP. The County Manager also informed the administration that the CIP format <br />might change, thus delaying possible adoption of the plan. The projects needing advanced <br />approval are listed below. <br />Mobiles for Higb Sebools <br />Included in the dishicYs 2003-13 Capital Investment Plan was $620,000 to buy mobile <br />classrooms in year 2004-05. These funds will support the purchase and installation of the <br />8 mobile units scheduled for CHHS and ECHHS. It is important that this year's mobile <br />classrooms be ordered as soon as possible. Site preparation and delivery dates for the <br />mobiles are always concerns that should be addressed at the earliest time. In order to <br />proceed with the project, County Commissioner approval of the $620,000 is required. <br />While these funds will be included in the 2004-14 CIl', this year's CIP may not be <br />reviewed by the Conunissioners until late spring or summer. <br />Mobiles for Scroggs <br />Depending on the Board's action concerning overcrowding at Scroggs Elementary, <br />advance approval for the mobiles would also be required. The memorandum from Mr. <br />Scroggs details the funding required to move existing units or to install new units. The <br />cost ranges from $85,000 to $I 16,000. This item was not included in the 200.3-2013 CIP <br />but would be included in the 2004-2014 CII'. Any delay in CIl' funding would negatively <br />affect an already tight installation schedule. <br />
