School Chiller:

The school ice bank system will be bypassed starting this spring (due to several issues with that system).  We are waiting on a final schedule. This involves some piping and programming changes.

We are getting quotes on in-room air conditioners for the 2 computer room (vs using the ones in the windows)

 

Health inspection was completed; this involved a more thorough review based on the new Jarod’s Law.  A remediation plan will be filed within 60 days.  There were no major items cited.  General categories:  Cabinets and tables that need to be secured due to possible tip hazard, MSDS sheets needed for items in classrooms, Locker room floors need to be cleaned, Science & Art room specifics.

Elder students did some community service hours to pickup around the grounds.

Some trees were planted by Greg Lester.

 

Summer Painting:

In School:  We will utilize David Endres as a supervisor of the paint projects this summer along with summer high school help.  The projects are: old school hallway and door frames.  There are also some areas at church and the rectory that require painting.

New items:

 

The 1st floor classrooms (specifically rm 19) have a raised threshold at the doorway that is causing a trip hazard.

Jarod’s Law is new legislation that requires a lot more detailed inspection by the Health Department.

We will have our inspection later this month.  Key areas of focus will be:  MSDS sheets, Bleacher inspection, Lunch room inspection and Roof inspection. 

 

The group was asked to approve proceeding with the pew refinishing project.  The center sets of pews in church are in need of refinishing.  The “pie” sections were done 2 years ago.    The group agreed.  The schedule will be setup to minimize disruptions to planned events- ie:  weddings.  It was noted that many book rack need repair prior to the new refinishing.

It was recommended that the front church sign get new landscaping.
