COUNCIL DISTRICTS IMPACTED: Citywide
SUBJECT:
Pre-K 4 SA Facility Improvement Projects
SUMMARY:
This item requests Board approval for facility improvement projects at the South and North Education Centers which amount to approximately $59,000.00 to be funded by remaining construction project funds which were approved during the March 3, 2015 Board meeting.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
During the March 3, 2015 meeting, the Board of Directors approved for Pre-K 4 SA to accept approximately $2.6 million in funds originally allocated to the construction of Pre-K 4 SA Education Centers which the program would utilize for additional facility improvement projects.
Staff issued $40,266.42 in project funds to JAMCO Ventures to facilitate necessary office renovations at the West Education Center. This scope of work included building three administrative offices, painting a pedestrian walkway in the parking lot, and adding a gate in the parking lot to separate bus traffic from parents dropping off and picking up their children.
JAMCO is a City Council approved JOC contract and therefore can accept construction projects for the City up to $2 million annually. Pre-K 4 SA has quotes for construction projects totaling approximately $100,000 including $42,266 already approved by staff and completed by JAMCO. However, Pre-K 4 SA bylaws require Board approval for contracts exceeding $50,000, so staff is requesting approval from the Board of Directors to fund the remaining projects not to exceed $57,733.
In addition to the three projects already completed at the West Education Center, additional construction projects requested include:
