School Maintenance And Repairs

RANDOLPH, Utah.  August 19, 2019.  Rick Limb, school maintenance, noted that the new marquee and new score board have arrived.  The score board will be put up immediately, and the marquee will be put in place as soon as possible.

The gas tank project is completed.  It cost about $12,000 to get everything up to code.  The fire marshal suggested that no busses be parked back by this tank.  There is a tennis court by the building where the busses could be parked during the school year, and the tennis court could still be used in the summer.  Limb asked that he be allowed to put power along the tennis court so that the busses would be able to plug in during the winter.  This would be a centralized place for the busses.  It would do away with a lot of extension cords and problems that result from the current situation.  The Board asked that he go ahead with this project and complete it before winter.

Limb reported that the football field in Laketown has been turned.  The cement holding the old score board took both the skid-steer and a back hoe to move it.  The roofers have finished up their work.  There is a drain leak that needs to be checked out; and in the elementary first grade classroom, there is also a leak that needs to be taken care of.

The new fire system that was put in place didn’t have strong enough batteries to hold a charge for up to 24 hours.  Larger batteries have been installed and testing of the system will take place this coming Sunday.  The alarms will be going off on Monday (the first day of school) to check the system.  Limb apologized for the inconvenience that may be cause to the teachers and students.

The high school will need a new fire system next year.  All the carpets that were on the list have been laid, and all of the needed painting has been completed.  The motion lights in the gymnasiums are working very well.
