EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This project was planned by the architectural firm of Fleischman Garcia Architects. On January 16, 2007, the Board appointed the construction management firm of Allstate Construction, Inc. The renovation of existing facilities provides for required walkway lighting; signage, restroom, plumbing fixture, and door hardware upgrades for compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA); heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system replacement at selected buildings; exhaust fan replacements throughout the school; interior painting; electrical equipment and distribution system replacements; lighting upgrades; new exterior doors; new fire alarm and telephone systems; replacement of most site fencing; and reroofing and brick repointing on selected buildings. Additionally, the Administrative Suite will be reconfigured for improved operations, and Student Dining expanded to include a multipurpose room with stage and a Faculty Dining space.

Change Order No. 3 provides a credit for the direct purchase of materials by the District, in accordance with the Direct Purchase Program. Change Order No. 4 provides for miscellaneous unforeseen requirements including missing through wall duct at existing air conditioning units; modifications to the existing subflooring for the new concrete slab; rerouting of underground conduit interfering with a new classroom addition; and remediation of selected ductwork and markerboards.
