This is for information only.  Staff recommends the Board approve Amendment 1 to the Facilities Lease for the Vicente/Briones project based on the statutory amendments in SB 693 effective January 1, 2017 at a following Board Meeting

At the December 19, 2016 Board Meeting, the Board ratified the AHS Building K Lease-Leaseback contracts with JL Modular for Increment 1 and 2.  Effective January 1, 2017, the Legislature has amended the current skilled and trained workforce provisions with SB 693. The Education Code currently has an escalating timeline to implement labor requirements for lease-leaseback projects. SB 693 consolidates skilled and trained workforce requirements for various public agencies in the Public Contract Code, commencing with section 2600. SB 963 will provide a grace period of an additional year for contractors to incorporate the escalating percentage of skilled and trained workforce into its projects with public agencies.  These statutory amendments have been incorporated into the Amendment of Facilities Lease.

This item is for information only.  Staff recommends the Board approve Amendment 1 to the Facilities Lease for each Increment based on the statutory amendments in SB 693 effective January 1, 2017 at a following Board Meeting. 

With the completion of the Vicente/Briones school construction project and student relocation to the new campus, Martinez Adult Education will occupy the brick and mortar buildings that were previously occupied by Vicente and Briones. This will mean that aging portables 15, 16, 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, Tech Shed, Tech 1/2, Tech 3, Restroom, and Storage Shed as identified on the site map and currently being used by Martinez Adult Education can be surplused due to their deteriorating condition and lack of need. Staff recommends the surplus of noted portable buildings currently housed at Martinez Adult Education upon relocation to the new Vicente Briones campus. The budget for the disconnection and removal is between $55,000 and $130,000 depending on whether the buildings are removed or they have to be demolished. 

Included as part of the Alhambra High School Building K project is the replacement of the ramp plaza between the PAB and Building J.  The idea of changing the ramp plaza area into an outdoor learning environment was brought forward in a facilities subcommittee meeting last spring when the project was being bid. The design by the architect was not completed so no budget number was determined for the cost at that time. The cost to modify the terraced areas into an outdoor learning has been determined to be approximately $60,000. If the district is interested in moving forward with this addition, staff would need a recommendation to increase the AHS Building K budget. 

Superintendent Cammack and the Board will discuss a possible draft framework for conducting work related to Measure R.

In keeping with the updating of its policies, the Board has been asked to review the policies presented which have been reviewed by Cabinet members.
