Committee meeting action items will be enacted under one motion unless removed for separate action.

The PCC grant is a state grant. The district utilized on of these grants in the past and would like to apply again. If selected for the grant, the PCC will pay cost of labor and we will pay for cost of materials. The grant will be used to beautify the outside of our facilities during the summer.

In light of recent events at educational institutions across the county, the WCSD administration assessed building security at each of the WCSD’s schools. Six schools (SAMHS, BWMS, WCCC, WAHS, YHS and EMSHS) are in need of security upgrades to provide them with the same levels of protection as the remaining facilities.

5. Items Removed for Separate Action

A Facility Gap Analysis, compiled by the district’s principals and facilitated by Mrs. Amy Stewart, was presented by Dr. Hugh Dwyer at the October 30, 2006 Physical Plants and Facilities Committee meeting. The gap analysis focused on perceptions of what education might look like in a decade and took in to account current trends, projected trends and outcomes of applying state and federal laws.The Committee members recognize this as step one in the process of determining not only the look of future education but also the needs of the facilities which will be driven by the educational requirements. Regardless of the focus, ensuring parity throughout the district should be of utmost importance.The main purpose of requesting the gap analysis was to provide information to assist the Board members in developing a facilities priority list. It was recommended that this information be added to the information provided in the Crabtree report and that the district brings in a facilitator to assist in developing a priority list for each of the facilities. Mr. Paul Zippel provided similar services to the district before and is recommended again.

Summer construction projects historically are developed from the wish lists of the principals as well as the handful of most immediate concerns. Currently there are several key systems at Eisenhower Middle Senior High School that are in need of upgrading as old equipment can no longer be replaced and there is potential for system failures. The canceling of the Project No. 0507r will leave monies in the budget to handle significant emergencies this winter until the projects can be addressed in the summer construction season.
