7.D. JHS Portable Building presented by Robert Navarro and Sledge Engineering
Description:
Background Information:
Jarrell High School is currently at capacity. The 2021 Bond includes expansion of JHS to 1,258 students. The bid was authorized by the Board in January and construction on site will be commencing soon. This summer 2 of the classrooms along the north wing will be remodeled for the extension to the new classroom wing. Current construction schedule shows completion in March 2024. In essence, the new classroom wing will not be available for the 2023-24 school year. When the next JHS expansion occurs to 2,200 students, it is likely that some existing single story classroom space will be reconstructed to 2 story classroom wing. Portables are needed at JHS in the Summer of 2023 to a) alleviate current capacity issues, b) accommodate growth while the 2021 bond project is being completed, and c) provide flex/swing space during the next JHS expansion. The anticipated portables at JHS include:
Due to lack of supply for new portables at this time, it is anticipated that all portables acquired will be refurbished units. The location is being finalized but the current anticipated layout is attached. The installation costs for portables will also require electrical, plumbing, technology, furniture, fencing, sidewalks, and site cleanup. These costs are in addition to the purchase, delivery, and install of the portable unit quotes attached. Strategic Goal: Item Addressed: This item addresses student growth for JHS until permanent space is constructed as part of 2021 Bond and any future bond. Budget Information: The purchase and delivery of the JHS portable quotes total = $700,000 (based on Draft quotes). The purchase of the portables will be via purchasing cooperative. Procurement for utility connections, technology, furniture and other services is also anticipated to be via via purchasing cooperatives. The total estimated cost for purchase of all the above referenced portables including engineering, permitting, furniture, technology, utility connections, and contingencies is $1,500,000. Fund balance is needed to cover these expenses. Any savings from the 2021 Bond projects can be used to reimburse the Fund balance in the 2023-24 Fiscal Year. |
