SUBJECT: Approve to Determine the Berkeley High School Career Technical Education for Carpentry and Stagecraft in room G112 is Categorically Exempt under CEQA and is requesting Board approval to file the Notice of Exemption.

The project consists of: replacement of existing light fixtures with energy efficient lighting and other electrical modifications; replacement of air handling equipment with energy efficient system; installation of new exhaust fans, modification of existing HVAC ductwork; underground plumbing work; custom casework and millwork; refinishing the existing floor finishes; patch, repair and paint work; re-striping ADA parking stalls and update ADA parking stall sign; installation of both owner furnished and contractor furnished equipment; construction of infill walls and storefront systems.

BERKELEY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
TO: Donald Evans, Ed.D., Superintendent FROM: Timothy White, Director of Facilities DATE: March 28, 2018
SUBJECT: Approval to Confirm First Phase of Elementary School Kitchen/Cafeteria Modernization Projects at Washington, Cragmont and Muir
BACKGROUND:
The reallocation plan for Measure I was approved at the January 11, 2017 Board of Education Meeting which included a project budget of $12,425,000 for Cafeteria Food Service Expansions/Upgrades Project at five (5) sites: Washington, BAM, Malcolm, Emerson and Muir. Cragmont was proposed to be added to the project based upon review with Nutrition Services due to the very cramped and inefficient kitchen and serving areas.
A Request for Proposal for Architectural Services was issued on February 14, 2017. We received nine (9) proposals which were scored by facilities and staff.
On April 26, 2017 HY Architects was awarded a contract to provide an assessment and study of the six (6) kitchen and cafeteria sites.
A revised reallocation plan for Measure I was approved at the January 10, 2018 Board of Education meeting revising the project budget to $9,200,000.
HY Architects presented their assessment and recommendation report to the Facilities Subcommittee on January 31, 2018. The total construction cost to install all six (6) projects exceeded the budget. We recommend the District move forward with the first three (3) projects which have been identified as the projects with the most need: Washington, Cragmont and Muir and a new stage curtain at Emerson.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve first phase of elementary school kitchen/cafeteria modernization projects at Washington, Cragmont and Muir.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None
