2026-09-24 - Joint School Construction Board

00:00Second, um I want to let you know that

00:02we're continuing to work on the PLA.

00:05Unfortunately, our September meeting had

00:07to be cancelled because one of the

00:10trades folks had a conflict, but that's

00:12not going to slow us down. We're we're

00:14going to our council's preparing a

00:17response to their August proposal. We're

00:20going to transmit that response, I

00:22believe, uh tomorrow ahead of our

00:25meeting with them on October 8th.

00:27>> Okay. So, we're pushing to keep things

00:30on track.

00:31>> Thank you. Any questions?

00:34>> Yeah.

00:35>> How the attendance were for the uh

00:37Tuesday meeting?

00:41>> Question. I don't know if the program

00:42met

00:43>> the Tuesday public meeting was

00:45>> how was the attendance

00:51yourself? Okay.

00:54Okay.

00:57Good.

01:01>> Yes.

01:03>> Yes.

01:04>> Thank you.

01:05>> Yes. So, finally, um, we had a staff

01:08meeting on the ICO RFP. Um, I have to do

01:12some work on the contract because it

01:14requires kind of a specialty contract.

01:17It's not a typical service like

01:19architects.

01:20>> Okay.

01:20>> But with that and the other RFP

01:23documents, we we hope to get them out.

01:25um

01:29uh for first quarter. Thank you. I

01:32slipped my mind. Thank you.

01:33>> Or sooner if we're ready.

01:35>> So, we're we're pushing forward with

01:37that as well.

01:38>> All right. I like sooner if we're ready.

01:41[laughter]

01:43>> And that completes my report.

01:45>> Thank you.

01:45>> Thank you very much.

01:47>> Our report of the program manager.

01:52>> Good morning.

01:53>> Good morning. Um just an update on our

01:56SD submissions. Um SED came back with a

01:59few questions. We responded to those

02:01regarding the MCA calculations for each

02:03of the buildings which translate into um

02:07essentially the budget for the building

02:08and how much aid we'll receive. We have

02:10not received a response yet from them.

02:12Uh we're hoping to receive that here

02:14shortly. Um the architects are

02:17continuing through on DD phase. That's

02:21like the 50% uh of the drawings. Uh as

02:25mentioned, we had uh public meeting on

02:28Tuesday uh presented to the board last

02:30night and then uh Webster tonight and

02:34Monday will be Seymour for public input.

02:37And we have a copy of that board

02:39presentation here tonight that we can

02:41run through and give you an idea of what

02:42the projects inelail.

02:46Um,

02:48moving along in design development still

02:51anticipate submission in November. Um,

02:55and once we get the DD docs, the

02:58construction man construction manager

03:01will perform uh an estimate so we can

03:04reconcile the budget, make sure we're

03:05within budget. Um and then we move into

03:09the construction document phase and then

03:12uh following that would be the SED uh

03:14submission and we anticipate approval in

03:18May of 27. Following that we would then

03:21go into bid and award phase. Anticipate

03:25that to be about 3 months. Following

03:26that would start construction in third

03:28quarter of 27.

03:32As mentioned, uh we are working with the

03:34team on the ICO RFP and that's moving

03:39along well. Um architects and

03:42construction managers for the phase

03:44three projects would also um fall into

03:48first quarter of 27 issuing of the RFP

03:51and look to award those second quarter.

03:53So we would start on the next three

03:55buildings.

03:58Uh continue to meet with SEDD, met with

04:00them last week. Um, again, what we're

04:03hoping to get back is feedback on the

04:05MCAs

04:08and then project labor agreement next

04:10meeting is scheduled for um the 8th of

04:13October.

04:16Any questions?

04:17>> Questions?

04:22>> Okay, we want to roll into the

04:24>> uh we got Tom behind you. Um the school

04:28district did request that um we flip two

04:31schools from phase um one from C phase C

04:35to phase B. So we'd like to um flip

04:37blahit and Delaware. So the reason we

04:40requested that u we're having floor

04:42issues in the basement of Delaware. I

04:44mean in the basement of Blahetta. We

04:46actually had the same issue at Delaware

04:47which isn't that far away about 10 years

04:50ago when we replaced the floors there.

04:52So basically the floors are like rotting

04:54out from underneath. So we'd like to

04:56switch that phase. So the school

04:57district is formally going to ask the

04:59JSCB to do that. Make that switch

05:02modify.

05:03>> That is not is that today or

05:05>> that's not today. That that's but so

05:08you'll see that in the RFP. So

05:10>> So flipping means the the schools that

05:13were in line for now are going to win.

05:17>> So for phase B, it originally was

05:19Lincoln, Blahett, and Corkran. And now

05:22it's going to be Lincoln or no Lincoln

05:24Delaware and Corkran. Now it's going to

05:26be Lincoln, Blahett, and Corkran. So

05:28Corkran doesn't uh there's no swing

05:30space there. Uh we're flipping because

05:32of swing space uh both blahit and

05:35Delaware. We're going to flip uh going

05:37to swing it to Shay. So that's what

05:39we're doing. We're just changing the

05:40order of uh when the projects get done.

05:42>> Do we think this um construction on uh

05:45Delaware is going to fix some problems

05:47that we worked on 10 years ago?

05:50Oh, that's all resolved. That that was

05:52that was all resolved. So, we took the

05:54floor out there and that that project we

05:56have went really well. So, that that's

05:57all resolved. Delaware is just a little

05:59landlocked as we all know. So,

06:02>> can I ask a question? You said that

06:03you're the floor and blahit in the

06:05basement.

06:06>> Correct.

06:06>> I mean, when did we go through blah? We

06:09just went through blahit not too long

06:10ago,

06:11>> right? But we didn't have enough money

06:12to do everything we want to do. So, we

06:14got the outside of the structure all

06:16taken care of. We took care of um

06:18student bathrooms. We took care of all

06:20the ADA, we took care of power in there

06:22because we didn't have enough power in

06:23the building. Um, and then the school

06:25district spent additional money,

06:27replaced all the floors, so we did

06:29asbestous abatement. We've done a lot of

06:31roofing there. So, the building is

06:33solid. Um, but the next phase really we

06:36have to go in the building, gut the

06:38hallways to put air conditioning in,

06:40replace all the plumbing, all the

06:43electrical, and then we're going to want

06:45to um do things like take those floors

06:47out and reconfigure that basement floor

06:49level, which we really haven't used for

06:51like 10, 15 years now.

06:53>> But once we do this, will that be the

06:55completion of logic?

06:57>> Correct. Yeah. And I think it's going to

06:59really be a major major difference. I

07:02think it'll really uh outside it looks

07:04great, but there's parts inside that we

07:06still need a lot of work.

07:10>> Um,

07:12we're switching Delaware. I'm trying to

07:13get the schools. Okay. What What is

07:16proposed for Delaware that's going to

07:17have to wait now?

07:18>> Uh, Delaware is a it's a renovation like

07:21the other elementary schools. So, we

07:22need to replace the windows. They're

07:24going to want to add air conditioning

07:25because of the New York State law. We

07:27have to replace the mechanicals. It was

07:29last renovated um in the late '80s.

07:32>> So um it's got a pool that always

07:34requires work. Um so yeah, it's it's

07:37going to need masonry, roof, all those

07:39types of things. Yeah.

07:43>> Thank you.

07:45Any other questions?

07:48>> Um did we want to run through the the

07:50slideshow just to give you an idea of

07:52what um scope is included in each of the

07:54buildings?

07:56Uh first slide here is again just a

07:58recap of the timeline for the phase 3A

08:00buildings. Currently in the design phase

08:02completed pre-construct or sorry

08:04pre-esign schematic design in progress

08:07with design development. Uh the next uh

08:11phase after that would be construction

08:12documents. Again the stateed approval

08:16bidden award phase uh we do relocate two

08:19buildings. Webster moves into levy. Uh

08:22Seymour moves into Shea. Uh target start

08:27of construction is still third quarter

08:29of 27. Uh anticipate Webster and SE

08:32Seymour moving back in in third quarter

08:35of 29. Essentially they'll be out for 2

08:37years. And then Nottingham anticipated

08:40completion is third quarter of 2030

08:43which is a phased renovation.

08:46>> Webster and Seymour they're going where?

08:48>> Uh Webster's going to Levy

08:50>> Levy

08:50>> and Seymour is going to Shay

08:52>> Shay.

08:54And before you move any further, let me

08:56ask you about Nottingham. What What else

08:58are we doing to Nottingham?

09:00>> Um, we'll show that here a couple

09:02seconds while we

09:07>> Okay. because it's saying 2030, but I

09:09know that we did intensive

09:11>> work in

09:20uh the current work scope list at

09:22Nottingham High School include uh site

09:25work reconfiguration of the main parking

09:27lot, introducing a parent drop off loop,

09:30um

09:32creation of a new bus entrance off the

09:35bus loop, and we'll show that on the

09:36site. plans here in a minute. And then,

09:39um, building a new loading dock for the

09:41kitchen.

09:43Uh, select exterior window replacements,

09:46uh, exterior door replacements in select

09:48areas, uh, repointing of brick and stone

09:51because there are some bad areas on the

09:54exterior of the building that need to be

09:56touched up. Uh, um, for CTE and academic

10:00space and academic spaces and toilet

10:02rooms. Uh, pool improvements, mostly the

10:05locker room. There'll be some select uh

10:07pool equipment and electronics as part

10:10of the project as well. Um athletics

10:14entrance um kind of like a facelift to

10:17it. Um and then the kitchen cafeteria is

10:21a complete renovation and we'll show um

10:24a small addition for new freezer cooler

10:27and dry storage that ties into the

10:29loading dock.

10:32And then auditorium improvements. Um

10:34select improvements like sound,

10:36lighting, um

10:39some finishes in the space. Uh and the

10:43one thing that's not listed here is the

10:45um healthbased clinic. We've got a spot

10:48designated in the building for that as

10:50well.

10:53So this is just an overall plan of the

10:56building. The areas highlighted in blue

10:58here are the renovation areas. Uh

11:01starting at the top of the page, that's

11:02that athletic corridor we mentioned. Um

11:06primarily that's not a real

11:07reconfiguration or anything, but just a

11:09facelift to kind of spruce it up. Um

11:12just below that is the kitchen cafeteria

11:15area. That's the complete renovation.

11:18We're actually going to turn the

11:20cafeteria

11:21section currently runs north and south.

11:24We're going to turn that east and west

11:26and move it to the exterior wall to

11:27bring in some more natural light. Um the

11:30darker blue just in the upper right

11:32corner there, that is that uh small

11:34addition for storage, freezer, cooler.

11:38Um and then the lighter blue is proposed

11:41new loading dock

11:44below that. And then

11:45>> just a question on the cafeteria. So the

11:48renovations are within the current

11:50footprint or it's going to look like

11:52it's protruding out.

11:53>> Uh current footprint.

11:54>> Current footprint. Yep.

11:56>> And the cafeteria will be the same size.

11:58Okay.

12:03[cough]

12:06>> Sure.

12:09>> And even the dark blue is within the

12:11current footprint.

12:12>> Yes.

12:15>> In addition,

12:17>> is that a kitchen processed food for

12:19other schools as well?

12:20>> Yes.

12:21>> How many schools

12:25will be about 10 after this?

12:28We serve 25,000.

12:45>> How many now?

12:47>> It's going to be 10 about how many

12:50>> schools now? [clears throat]

12:52>> Okay.

12:54>> The kitchen is very inefficient.

13:06>> [laughter]

13:08>> And I

13:10had to say it was a long time ago.

13:12[laughter]

13:13>> Thanks, Mayor.

13:14>> Thank you.

13:16>> Jeez. [laughter]

13:21the the big blue square or in the center

13:25there's the the auditorium again that's

13:28uh select finishes um paint wall again

13:32air conditioning in this space also air

13:34conditioning in the cafeteria

13:37um lighting improvements uh a little bit

13:40of rigging um

13:43and then just to the right of that is

13:45that um health-based community health

13:48clinic that we talked about. And then

13:50there's a classroom that's also

13:52highlighted there that just gets a

13:54little bit reconfigurated so that we can

13:55fit in the health place health-based

13:58clinic. Uh continuing in that section of

14:01the building, uh we mentioned a new

14:04student bus entry point that's on the

14:06the left of that corner of that

14:07building. Um that will allow students to

14:11enter the building from the bus loop. So

14:15the busers come in during the morning,

14:16they can enter in there, kind of leave

14:19some of the congestion at the main

14:20entrance

14:23and over to the the pool edition. Uh

14:26highlighted there in blue is the locker

14:28room area, but there will be select work

14:31outside of that as well. Uh so it's a

14:34reconfiguration

14:36minor of the locker rooms to make it ADA

14:39compliant and then also uh increase the

14:42size of the toilet rooms for spectators

14:44when they come to events.

14:48>> Who go here are bust in

14:52this question number

14:58>> really? Wow.

15:00>> Okay. central.

15:04Then we have our

15:12very

15:19drive by 9,

15:21you'll see the queue

15:25of kids lined up trying to enter the

15:27school and it's very difficult.

15:31entries

15:36after

15:38we will shut that entry down

15:41>> that it will just be the main entrance.

15:43Okay.

15:43>> And we do that at many of our schools.

15:46It's a very efficient way in the

15:48building quick.

15:54>> Awesome. Thank you.

15:57And then to the far left of the page is

16:00the uh GW wing. That's a complete gut

16:03renovation. We mean by gut renovation,

16:05it's tear down just about everything

16:06that's in there. Um not all the walls

16:09will come out. A lot of the corridor

16:10walls will remain, but the interior

16:13walls and current classroom sizes will

16:15change.

16:22just a an overall view of the existing

16:26site plan. Um, a couple things to note

16:29here are um kind of the way that the

16:33parking lot is set up now is not ideal

16:35because when you let's say you park on

16:38the far left, you've got to walk through

16:39like um two or three lanes of traffic

16:43trying to find parking spots. Ideally,

16:45we would and we're going to rotate that

16:4890 degrees so that when you're walking

16:50to the building, you're walking with

16:51traffic.

16:53>> Um,

16:55>> yeah,

16:56>> that reconfiguration there. Um,

16:59you can see the bus loop there. We've

17:01got an entrance coming into that

17:03entrance we just talked about. Um, we've

17:06pulled that parent drop loop off away

17:10from the building to give a little bit

17:11more area for students to queue to go

17:14into the building. And then, um, their

17:17design here is to kind of separate the

17:21parking from like uh, student teacher

17:24parking and then also have an aisle in

17:27there so that it cuts down on people

17:30speeding through a parking lot. Um, you

17:33can see we've got the

17:36loading dock uh on an angle there so

17:40that uh trucks can be pulled in and

17:42pulled out easily. And then um again

17:46just paving

17:47more parking spots.

17:50Uh with this configuration, there is um

17:53a reduction in parking. Uh we're still

17:56working through those numbers, but it's

17:57probably 30 maybe 40 parking spots. But,

18:01uh, safety wise, this is probably a

18:04better a better layout.

18:05>> The two-way entrance.

18:08>> Yeah. And that's still in design. It

18:10>> Okay.

18:11>> This may change before we get to the the

18:13final.

18:14>> Okay.

18:15>> But, uh, yeah,

18:16>> one of the ideas is maybe you could have

18:18parents pull up the bus drive a little

18:21bit further,

18:22>> pull into the bus loop, and the parent

18:24drop off, sorry, sorry, and circulate

18:28that way and back up. It's interesting

18:29to watch people turn left on that exit

18:31right there. [laughter]

18:39>> Uh this slide here is just a blowup of

18:42the reconfiguration of the cafeteria

18:46and kitchen. Uh so in the red section

18:48there is the the cafeteria currently

18:51that runs north and south. We rotate

18:53that 90° to maximize the windows along

18:56that exterior wall. for natural light.

18:59Um, just above that, you'll see two

19:02small uh toilet rooms that are added

19:05into the cafeteria space. I think that

19:08is intended to allow a lot of

19:09flexibility for um events after school.

19:13You can essentially lock down the the

19:16cafeteria area and just let people into

19:18that section of the building. Uh just to

19:21the right of that uh or above that are

19:24two classrooms that we're able to create

19:27um with this reconfiguration. We are

19:30losing one classroom in the lower right

19:32corner but we're able to gain one

19:34classroom.

19:35So a net increase there which is good.

19:37And then we've to the right of that

19:39we've got the uh new servery.

19:43And then to the right of that is the new

19:44kitchen. Um, also able to separate the

19:48garbage from kitchen. Uh, currently now

19:51it's all kind of like intermingled.

19:54So able to create that dedicated garbage

19:58and there's a overhead loading dock

20:00there for to exit the building. And then

20:02>> yellow, dark gray, and lighter gray are

20:04all what we look at right now as the

20:06cafeteria.

20:08>> Uh,

20:09>> no.

20:09>> Nope. Cafeteria currently sits where the

20:12new servery like the tan

20:13>> Okay. And then the the shaded uh

20:16classrooms here.

20:19Um again, new loading dock and staging

20:23area for that for meals go

20:25[clears throat] coming back and going

20:26going out and then trays coming back in

20:29for the following day. Um there's a

20:31break room for the kitchen staff with

20:34two designated toilets.

20:38Any questions on cafeteria?

20:42>> [clears throat]

20:46>> Uh this is a blowup that the GW wing. Um

20:52we do in this um create five CTE spaces.

20:57Those are highlighted in blue. I believe

21:00currently there's programming for

21:02construction technology, creative

21:03expressions, natural resource, and then

21:06there's two future programs that can be

21:08added to the CTE.

21:11um toilet room renovations creating um

21:15in the gray section there. Um

21:20the orange are seven classrooms along

21:23that north face currently configuration.

21:27There's about five. So we're

21:30reconfiguring that to make seven. Um and

21:34then there's also two, three, four

21:35office spaces that are created for uh

21:38program.

21:41>> Are children still in the building

21:43during this construction?

21:45>> Yes, this is a phase renovation. So,

21:47we're going to work in one area,

21:48complete that, work on another area. So,

21:51we're working through those details.

21:52Now, um,

21:59uh, this slide here just to kind of give

22:01you a blow up of each of the three, um,

22:05CTE spaces. Now, the construction

22:08technology, that's a former gym. So,

22:11we've got a little bit more head space

22:12there. The idea is there to create a um

22:15a storage space um with stairs that go

22:18up to it, which is probably, you know,

22:2110 foot off the ground. That way they

22:23can clear floor space in the classroom

22:26area, teaching area with materials or

22:28tools that they're not using, put them

22:30up there for storage, bring them down

22:31when they need them. And underneath that

22:33would be like the lecture space.

22:37Um and the pictures here are just some

22:39um concept ideas, types of equipment

22:42that are used in these spaces that the

22:45design team is working with uh district

22:47staff to to see if it fits the program.

22:51Again,

22:54some uh studies or pictures that the

22:58architect has used on other projects for

23:01like um the green space um the

23:04hydroponics growing plants on a on a

23:07hydroponic uh construction lab, what

23:10that might look like. So

23:12>> just just a couple um concerns or

23:16recommendations from the meeting about

23:19what was presented that you can share.

23:21>> Um

23:25off the top of my head um one was one

23:27one concern was parking. Um,

23:31another concern, not necessarily a

23:33concern, but um, making sure we've a net

23:39zero, if you will, with number of

23:40classrooms.

23:42>> Um, the current layout, we're about even

23:44at the um, GW. We're about even on

23:49number of classrooms that are currently

23:50existing and then the num the ones that

23:52are taken away. by reconfiguring

23:55um it creates a little bit more

23:57flexibility because we've got um

24:01if you go back to the next slide

24:05one more.

24:07So between like creative expressions and

24:09future programming that's a a classroom

24:12there in green that can be either be

24:14used dedicated for creative expressions

24:16or it could be used for a future program

24:19or it could be used for a math class.

24:22So it gives a a little bit more

24:23flexibility with that. Hopefully that

24:25answers your

24:28>> Thank you.

25:15And that's part of the the phasing that

25:17we're looking at is if we need to fit

25:18out a space um for temporary use, what

25:22needs to be included in that power-wise,

25:24waterways.

25:26Yeah.

25:29Right. Right.

25:35Mhm.

25:40Wednesday.

25:51Uh any other questions on Nottingham?

25:54Okay, moving to Webster. Uh, current

25:57work scope is um site work, reconfigure

25:59the parking lot, add a bus loop, uh,

26:02relocate the pre play playground and

26:04loading dock. I don't know if anybody's

26:06been over there in the morning, but it's

26:07congested.

26:08Um, exterior window replacement, doors,

26:12uh, roofing, brick repointing, um, a new

26:15dedicated secure single point entrance,

26:18um, at the front of the building.

26:22um

26:24update finishes within the building.

26:26When we look at the plans, it's going to

26:28look kind of bland, but we're doing

26:31introducing air conditioning into this

26:33building, which requires all the

26:35ceilings to come out, which then we'll

26:37have new ceilings, new lighting. Um

26:41there is a four classroom addition

26:45um in planned for this building. It's uh

26:48two stories, so two classrooms on two

26:51separate floors, and we'll show that

26:53here in a minute. Uh mentioned the air

26:55conditioning controls will be upgraded

26:57as well. Uh plumbing, it's uh

27:00renovations to the existing toilet rooms

27:04and then adding toilet rooms for prek

27:06and kindergarten in the classroom, which

27:09is good. um probably will, as I

27:12mentioned, new electrical uh lighting

27:14and controls. Uh additional security

27:17cameras, fire alarm, PA clock systems

27:20will all be replaced.

27:22Uh ADA accessibility improvements into

27:25the building will be incorporated into

27:28the site so that there's ramps to get

27:29you into the the single point uh entry.

27:34and then some minor reconfigurations to

27:36the cafeteria serving line so that um it

27:40kind of will create a better flow in the

27:43space.

27:46>> Do we have any ideas about how bad the

27:48abatement is?

27:50>> Uh we just are receiving reports on

27:53that. It doesn't seem that terrible.

27:56Um

27:58>> absolutely. No doubt. Just will slow you

28:01down if there's more. That's all. Right.

28:11Uh the original building in the the main

28:14entrance here is a 1917 building. It's

28:18uh brick exterior construction but a lot

28:19of wood framing. Uh there was an

28:22addition in 1924 which is the next

28:24section of the building. Uh again wood

28:27framing for the roof structure and

28:29exterior masonry walls with wood

28:31framing. And then there was a 1984

28:34edition. That's the threetory uh at the

28:37end of the building. And we'll point

28:38that out here.

28:40Um so again,

28:43uh existing site plan. Uh

28:47we've got uh teacher parking in the

28:49upper

28:52left corner there. And then across that

28:55is the

28:571917

28:59section of the building that kind of

29:00runs north and south. And then off of

29:02that is the 1924 section

29:06which runs east and west. And then the

29:08lighter roof structure there that is the

29:111980s edition.

29:13Uh we got the playground currently in

29:15the lower left corner. And then there's

29:17a small uh bus loop off of Lisman.

29:26So the the current site plan looks at

29:29adding um relocating the playground,

29:33adding parking along Wadssworth,

29:36and then creating a bus loop, if you

29:39will, entry off of Listman that exits

29:41off of Birkshshire. Uh this will hold

29:45about 14 buses which is the current load

29:47for the building.

29:49And then um we would also add a loading

29:52deck. The loading dock currently is on

29:55the south section of that 1917 portion

29:58of the building which adds to

30:00congestion. We want to increase the the

30:03width of the street there to for a

30:06parent drop off to kind of separate

30:07parent drop off, bus drop off, and then

30:10um walkers come to the building too.

30:14>> Can you go to the previous slide just

30:25>> Thank you.

30:36That's the front facing part of the

30:39building

30:40>> is on Bossworth. Correct.

30:42>> That is now going to look like parking

30:44instead of the face of the building.

30:48Yeah, that's really different.

30:55Okay.

31:01Right.

31:04Similar.

31:23>> That neighborhood meeting is tonight.

31:26>> Yes.

31:27>> Yes.

31:29And then just noting the the purple box

31:32here is the two classroom edition which

31:34is actually four but it looks like two

31:35on the the plan here. Two stories. Um

31:42[clears throat and snorts]

31:43and then relocating the loading dock to

31:45the north side of the building so it's

31:48off of the teacher parking lot, not

31:50interfering with parent drop off or bus

31:52traffic.

31:59Um, this plan view is of the lower

32:02level. Um, again looks kind of bland

32:04because the 1917 and 1924 is all crawl

32:09space, but the 80s edition has that

32:11basement level which has classrooms um,

32:14which will include the two new addition

32:17uh, classrooms. The orange on these

32:20drawings indicate toilet room

32:21renovations or new toilet rooms as we

32:24get to the upper floors. And then the

32:26yellow um is instructional space that

32:29we're reconfiguring for programs that

32:31are held within the building. But the

32:34white areas do get touched um with new

32:38ceiling, lighting, and air conditioning

32:42windows as well. So that'll help

32:46with the uh natural light in the

32:48classrooms.

32:52This is the

32:52>> [clears throat]

32:53>> uh first floor plan. Um starting at the

32:56top with the second floor of the

32:59addition. Um again, we've got toilet

33:02rooms that we're renovating uh in the 84

33:05section. um dividing up a current uh

33:10configuration for offices slash um

33:13support spaces.

33:15And then if we move to the left, um the

33:19existing main office remains where it

33:21is, which is in

33:23the center. Um

33:30at the front of the building, we've got

33:32a 88 accessible ramp. Currently there

33:35isn't one. So that's not able to be used

33:37for a main entrance. Uh I think

33:39everybody comes in the back of the

33:41building now. So it'd be nice to move

33:42that to the front. Then we'll have a

33:44secure a vestibule

33:46and u enter people into the building

33:50that way.

33:52uh

33:53mentioned the kitchen, cafeteria,

33:56not major renovations in there other

33:58than air conditioning, but the cafeteria

34:00serving line uh we're looking at

34:03reconfiguring that so that it helps the

34:05flow through the the cafeteria. That was

34:09uh comments that we did receive at one

34:11of the public input meetings.

34:16Any questions or

34:21Uh again on the second floor um which is

34:25the top floor of the 80s edition. Uh

34:28toilet room reconfigurations and again

34:30new ceiling, lighting, air conditioning,

34:33windows in that section as well.

34:35[snorts]

34:50It would take a lot more from the budget

34:54to so adding the I agree it seems like

34:57it would be but we would have to take

34:59something else out if that makes sense

35:01because we're limited on the budget and

35:04the aability for the building. So in

35:06order to incur that cost, we would

35:08likely have to reduce scope in another

35:10area.

35:17Uh Seymour, um a lot of the same work

35:20scopes as uh Webster. Uh looking to

35:24expand the parking lot, reintor

35:25reorientate the playground. Uh add a

35:28dedicated uh bus drop by increasing the

35:32the width of the road. Uh window

35:35replacements, roofing replacements,

35:37select uh brick repointing and a new

35:40entrance at the front of the building

35:41that you see in the picture there. So

35:43that will become the single point entry

35:46um during the day or at the building.

35:49Um, as we mentioned, um, mechanical

35:53upgrades, air conditioning, whole new

35:56mechanical system,

35:59uh, which will then trigger new ceiling

36:00and lighting in all the spaces, um,

36:04plumbing, uh, new toilet room

36:06renovations, uh, adding toilet rooms to

36:09kindergarten, preK rooms that are

36:11connected to the classrooms, uh,

36:15electrical upgrades, mentioned the

36:18lighting, security, alarm or security

36:20camera, sorry, uh fire alarm, PA and

36:24clocks will all be replaced building

36:26wide as well. And then the ADA

36:28accessibility improvements in the toilet

36:30rooms and entering and exiting of the

36:33building.

36:34>> On which side? Because there's no ADA

36:36accessibility on the front.

36:37>> We're going to add that a ramp to the

36:39front of that now as part of the

36:41project.

36:48This slide again just uh overall the

36:51existing site conditions here. You can

36:53see we've got a small bus loop off of um

36:56Shard.

36:58Not quite big enough for the the amount

36:59of buses that they have here. A lot of

37:01them end up queuing out in the road

37:03which um adds to confusion, congestion

37:06during the morning. Um [snorts]

37:10>> are any of the DOT plans

37:13that include West Street?

37:16Uh I'm

37:17>> affect you at all?

37:18>> I'm not aware.

37:19>> Okay.

37:20>> It shouldn't, but um

37:22>> Okay.

37:25>> Okay.

37:30>> The the new site layout here, the

37:32existing parking lot stays the same. Uh

37:34we expand that pick up by I think like

37:3630 spaces or so. Uh we do reorientate

37:40the playground to keep it in the same

37:42area, but allows for that. um

37:46parking lot to be created and that

37:48existing bus loop goes away. Uh we would

37:51widen the street for a bus drop off on

37:54Shard and then into the main entrance.

37:58We would rework those stairs for that

38:00ADA accessibility into the building.

38:02>> But there's only one side for ADA

38:04accessibility, just front entrance.

38:06>> I believe you can enter in the the

38:11office Seymour. I believe that entrance

38:13is at grade as well currently.

38:27Oh, that's true. On the the west side,

38:29which is currently the the single point

38:31entry, right at the the end of that new

38:34parking lot, there is a ramp there as

38:36well.

38:40uh first floor uh layout here. Again,

38:44the orange represents either new toilet

38:47rooms in classrooms or renovated

38:50toilets. Um we are creating a couple new

38:53toilet spaces up near the gymnasium so

38:56that we can move the current toilet room

39:00from its current reo location to create

39:02some more storage for the kitchen.

39:05Um the yellow represents um support

39:08spaces that are created. Taking a little

39:11bit out of the library to create uh two

39:14support spaces

39:16and then in the green at the front is

39:18the the main entrance and secure

39:20vestibule

39:22uh for single point entry.

39:24>> Students are staying here.

39:26>> Uh no these students get relocated as

39:28well. They really

39:31>> uh again all the other classrooms

39:34configuration wise don't change but they

39:36do to get new windows, lighting uh and

39:39air conditioning.

39:45Uh second floor, not any real

39:48modifications to the existing building

39:50footprint, but um renovating and

39:53creating a couple creating one new

39:55toilet room and then renovating the

39:58other toilet rooms.

40:02And

40:04that's it essentially. Um any questions,

40:07concerns?

40:07>> Oh, exciting to see what's about to

40:09happen.

40:10>> Yeah. Yeah.

40:12>> Thank you.

40:13>> Awesome. Thank you. Thank you. Thank

40:15you.

40:17Uh report of the

40:20>> diversity officer Charl.

40:23>> Yes.

40:25[clears throat]

40:30>> Thank you. Okay.

40:36Here you go.

40:37>> Good morning. Cheryl Pace, assistant

40:39director of the division of equity,

40:40compliance, and social impact.

40:45Um, the first thing that I'll be going

40:46over is the EEO data.

40:50I'll give you a chance to

40:53get the document first.

40:56Same thing. Yeah.

41:01>> So, from the last report, um, we have

41:04received, uh, payment applications from

41:06Labella and Kadini. So, they're listed

41:08here as well and included in the

41:10professional service hours. Um so just

41:13to go over uh where we currently sit

41:15with the minority percentage um we are

41:18currently at 18.13%

41:21um towards the goal. Uh

41:24for the uh women percentage uh we are at

41:28uh 14.86

41:30and that's to a 12% goal. And then for

41:34the uh Syracuse or sorry city resident

41:37um goal of 20%, we are currently sitting

41:40at 17.56%.

41:42And then for the Syracuse City School

41:44District graduate goal of 2%, we are

41:47currently at 17.88%.

41:50Or I'm sorry.99.

41:53Um again [clears throat]

41:55as mentioned last time these goals will

41:56fluctuate as we onboard more of the

41:58contractors and they start submitting

42:00their hours. um because it is based on

42:02the total hours that they are submitting

42:04in their payment applications. Um

42:06depending on each payment application,

42:08the hours will go up and down for this.

42:12Are there any questions on the EEO data?

42:17Okay. And then the second page is just

42:19the uh percentage towards the um MWBE

42:23goals uh for the business enterprises.

42:26So again, we now have all of the

42:29contractors listed um including CNS. We

42:32haven't received or processed their

42:34payment applications yet. So they're not

42:36included in the payment totals today. Um

42:39but right now uh towards the MB Eagle um

42:43Turner and uh

42:47sorry for the MB Eagle um we have uh for

42:52Webster Kadini and for Seymour Kadini

42:55has contributed towards the MB Eagle

42:57with their payment application so far.

43:00So for Webster, uh they have contributed

43:02$17,252.50

43:06towards the MB Eagle, which puts them

43:08right now at um 5% towards the overall

43:1318% goal. And then for Seymour, Kadini

43:16has contributed $16,156

43:19towards the MBE goal, uh which puts them

43:22at 5% towards that goal as well. So, we

43:25currently sit at um 1% towards the eight

43:29overall 18% goal, but that's just

43:31because those are the first few payment

43:33applications that have been processed

43:34with MWBE participation.

43:37>> And again, this line that says value in

43:40NA is because we have not processed CNS.

43:42>> Correct. Okay. They haven't submitted

43:43any payment applications yet. So,

43:45there's nothing towards the goal. Um for

43:47the ones that say zeros, we have

43:49processed payment applications. They

43:50just haven't done any MBE participation

43:53yet.

43:54Okay. And that's Labella. That would

43:57include Labella.

43:58>> Uh that was for Kadini that has

44:00contributed so far. Labella, we've

44:01processed the payment application. They

44:03just haven't um had any participation

44:05yet from an MBE.

44:08>> Do we know what the scope participation

44:11is that they've submitted a utilization

44:13for?

44:14>> Yes. Um if you'd like, I can uh provide

44:17the utilization plans to go out to the

44:19board so you guys can see. um some of

44:20them just haven't been engaged yet just

44:22due to the scope of their work doesn't

44:24come in until later stages.

44:26>> Okay.

44:27>> For the WB Eagle um Turner has

44:31contributed um 225,335,000

44:35sorry 225 335,000

44:39um and49 cents towards that goal. So

44:42towards the 11.67 67 uh or sorry 87%

44:46that they have on their utilization

44:48plan. They have contributed 10% so far.

44:50Um

44:52Nottingham uh Labella has contributed

44:5513,000 um 25 uh towards the overall 12%.

45:00So they are currently at 4% WBE

45:02participation. For uh Kadini, for

45:05Webster, they've contributed $10,300

45:08towards the 12% goal and currently sit

45:11at 4%. And then for their uh for kadini

45:16for Seymour they have contributed 10,900

45:20towards the 12% goal and sit at 5%. So

45:23the overall achievement so far towards

45:25the goal is 7% for WBE.

45:29>> Um Charerelle remind me what's the

45:31software that contractors are using now?

45:33For contract management, we are using

45:35B2G now and we are currently exploring

45:38options for uh certified payroll. Uh B2G

45:42now does also have a um software e

45:44comply which would create a single sign

45:46on for contractors. So they wouldn't

45:48have to log into two separate systems

45:51and they would also be able to do um

45:54exports that match the format that is

45:57required now by the department of labor

45:59so that it would make it easier for them

46:01to follow the process that the

46:03department of labor has outlined as

46:04well. So we're exploring that right now

46:06as an option. Um, still a few more

46:08conversations need to be had, but then

46:10we would be presenting the information

46:11to the board to understand which

46:13software we think is a best fit

46:15>> and any ICO ICO selected would have to

46:18use those.

46:19>> Yes. And we want to um make sure that

46:21the software stays um on our side and

46:24there would potentially be access

46:26granted limited access just to be able

46:28to do the compliance piece. um not

46:30actually have like administrative access

46:32but just um able to process uh either

46:35certified payrolls or contract

46:36management but we would have the data.

46:38Yeah.

46:39>> Okay. Perfect. Thank you.

46:41>> You're welcome.

46:42>> Any questions?

46:46>> All right. Thank you.

46:46>> Thank you.

46:49>> Uh no, that's Thank you. But just

46:51quarterly report

46:52>> resolution uh uh agenda item six

46:55resolution.

46:56>> Yes, we have one uh resolution today. Um

46:58before that a quick update that I forgot

47:01to mention. I'm in the process of u our

47:04annual renewal of our your director and

47:06officers liability insurance. So

47:09submitting that application and hope to

47:11have a proposal from the insurance

47:13broker at the next board meeting.

47:15>> Thank you very much.

47:16>> You're welcome. [laughter]

47:18Good thing to have.

47:19>> Yes, sir.

47:20>> And uh with that being said, we have

47:22resolution number 19 which would

47:24authorize our monthly payments for

47:26September.

47:29So move

47:31>> second. Any abstensions? Any objections?
