Summer School Repair Projects

RANDOLPH, Utah.  May 21, 2014.  A list of the summer maintenance projects, along with final bids, had been given to the Board Members.  Mr. Limb was present to answer any questions the Board members may have.  It was noted that three schools will be getting new bleachers.  They will be up to code and hopefully last as long as the previous ones.  They will be electrically moved in and out, have railings, and wheelchair cut outs.  They will be made or plastic since it is easier to clean.

The gym floors also need to be refinished.  It has been long enough since the floors were done completely, they will need to be sanded back to the wood, and all markings repainted.  Cross Beck Floors from Salt Lake City did not have the lowest bid, but appeared to be the best qualified to do an excellent job.  Gary Beck came and looked at what needed to be completed and said he would make sure the best job possible would be done. 

Mr. Limb will be doing several projects as well.  He will be doing the cement work, installing hot water heaters in some of the lines, upgrading on the truck, and making sure needed ladders are available.  There are a couple of white boards that need to be replaced in the North Rich Facility.  South Rich Elementary would like to go with white boards as well.

Mr. Limb requested that a skidster be purchased.  It is really the best option since attachments can be rented when special jobs and projects require specialized equipment.  He noted that the walls in the gyms need to be painted prior to doing the floors and installing the bleachers. 

There has been a carryover of $147,000 which will be used on the bleachers.  By the time roofing, the fire alarm system, and carbon monoxide detectors are to be purchased, budget transfers and changes will have been made to take care of those items.

The Board approved the summer projects.
