The district office boardroom audio and video equipment has been in disarray, is currently outdated, not easy to use, and breaks down on a continuous basis.  This A/V equipment upgrade will resolve these issues and move the functionality of the meeting space into the 21st century.

Comments:

School district governing boards have the authority to “piggyback” on another public agency’s bid per public contract code section 20118 and 20652 when it is determined to be in the “best interest of the district”.  It is often advantageous for district to utilize piggyback bids when contract items are identical to the districts specifications.  Using piggyback contracts saves time and money, and they often provide lower prices than a single jurisdiction would be able to obtain.

The Board of Education approved the budget for Measure ES-2 Technology purchases during the Board meeting of August 28, 2014 (Item S.01). This purchase will utilize a portion of the 21st Century Classrooms allocation.

.VIII.B.8. Award of Contract to M&M Lift - Purchase of a Bluelift Aerial Lift
Recommended Motion:

It is recommended that the Board of Education award M&M Lift for the purchase of an Bluelift Aerial Lift, at a cost not to exceed $100,000, including training for district users.

Rationale:

The aerial lift will help the district’s M&O department to do projects that they would normally send out to a vendor and the cost of the project would elevate because of outside sourcing and the project would take two to four times longer because of scheduling.  The M&O department can respond quicker to high impacted work orders like burnt out bulbs in high to reach places creating a continuous safety environment for the students.

.VIII.B.9. 2018-19 4th Budget RevisionWas edited within 72 hours of the Meeting
Recommended Motion:

It is recommended that the Board of Education approve the 2018-19 4th Budget Revision.

Rationale:

The County Auditor-Controller Office released the “June 3, 2019 Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) Distribution” which shows the District will receive $8,574,472 above the LACOE P2 Estimate of Taxes Report Taxes (released on 5/3/2019.)

Conversely, this increase in RDA triggers a decrease of $4,092,506 in the amount of LCFF State Aid in the Minimum State Aid (MSA) category that reverts the MSA back to $8,585,843.

Additionally, The County Auditor-Controller Office report also shows a decrease in Supplemental Taxes in the amount of $480,000.

Lastly, the District received revenues in the amount of $26,576 for the reimbursement of 2016-17 STAR Testing.

Therefore, the net effect of these transfers is an increase of $4,028,542 to the ending fund balance.

This transfer is intended to accomplish the formal/final shifting to recognize the accounting transactions since the previously-approved activities in the 3rd Budget Revision.

All firms had been deemed qualified firms through the MSA RFQ process.  The proposals submitted included the proposed architectural team, and cost proposals, as requested.  Facility Improvement Projects staff, along with the Director of Maintenance & Operations reviewed the proposals. 

Upon review the team recommended that Rachlin Partners be awarded a project assignment for this project.  In its proposal, Rachlin Partners affirmatively stated that there is no known conflict of interest or any potential conflict of interest involving any District employee, consultant, or member of the Board of Education. Rachlin’s proposal of $911,680.00 is based upon hourly billing rates for the services included in the RFP.  Funding for architectural services will be from Measure ES.

Rationale:

On June 6, 2009, the Board of Education approved Johnson Controls (SimplexGrinnell, Inc.) (BOE Item A.28) for the provision and installation of Fire Alarm devices because all existing District wide systems are manufactured by that sole source manufacturer. 

The Board of Education further approved, on October 21, 2010, use of GSA contract #GS-07-0396M which allows for contracting for fire alarm, security, and emergency disaster equipment purchases and all services necessary to install the equipment from design to start-up, including maintenance and training at the lowest offered pricing.  The Los Angeles County Department of Education allows Districts to “piggy back” off the GSA contracts with no restriction other than standard Public Works contracting requirements.

On October 5, 2017, the Santa Monica Malibu Unified School District’s Board of Education awarded to Johnson Controls (SimplexGrinnell, Inc.) a construction contract for the provision and installation of Fire Alarm devices in the SAMOHI Science & Technology Bldg & Site Improvements in the amount of $33,000.00. 

All scope of work items has now been completed.  On May 1, 2019, a Certificate of Substantial Completion for the project was issued to Johnson Controls (SimplexGrinnell, Inc.). No punch list items to be corrected and/or documents to be submitted were identified.  In compliance with statutory requirements, a Notice of Completion has been filed with the County of Los Angeles.

.VIII.E.1. Revise BP 5141.21 – Administering Medication and Monitoring Health Conditions
Recommended Motion:

It is recommended that the Board of Education revise BP 5141.21 – Administering Medication and Monitoring Health Conditions. 

Rationale:

The policy and regulation have been updated to delete the requirements related to the administration of medication in cases of epileptic seizures, as Education Code 49414.7 repeals by its own terms on January 1, 2017, and to clarify that districts may continue to administer such medication under the general authority in state law. The policy and regulation also reflect new law (AB 1748, 2016), which authorizes districts to stock and administer medication in cases of opioid overdose.

Recommended Motion:

It is recommended that the Board of Education revise BP 5141.27 – Food Allergies/Special Dietary Needs.

Rationale:

The policy has been revised to reflect federal law, which requires that a determination of disability, for purposes of Section 504 of the federal Rehabilitation Act, be made without regard to the ameliorative effects of mitigating measures, which may result in more students with severe food allergies needing to be evaluated under Section 504 to determine if they need accommodations or services. The policy also prohibits discrimination and bullying based on a food allergy and adds referral to appropriate complaint procedures.

.XI.C. Approve the Fiscal and Use Agreement between Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District and Santa Monica College (20 min)
Recommended Motion:

District staff recommends that the Board of Education approve the Fiscal and Use Agreement between Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District and the Santa Monica Community College District.  

Rationale:

On March 2, 2017, the Board of Education approved the project design of a Performing Arts Center to replace the John Adams Auditorium that was closed in August 2014 due to significant structural damage and seismic issues. Santa Monica College offered to support the construction and share in the use of the new Performing Arts Center. In November of 2016, the voters overwhelmingly approved Measure V.

SMC agreed to contribute $20 million to the construction of the theater that is part of the Adams Performing Arts Center. Voter approved SMMUSD Measure ES will fund the remainder of the cost of constructing the entire Performing Arts Center, including the modernization of the existing Music Building. 

The agreement outlines the fiscal agreement and arrangement for the construction of the project. It includes a payment schedule and other financial/liability concerns. The second part of the agreement addresses the facility use of the center. The use agreement allows SMC to use the theater on at least 36 days per year. The use will be scheduled with John Adams Middle School.  

The term of the use will continue as long as Facility remains under the District’s ownership and control and the building is used as an auditorium by the District.

 
Financial Impact:

SMC agrees to contribute $20 million to the construction of the Adams Performing Arts Facility. They will receive up to 36 days of use annually. Permit fees will be waived, but additional personnel costs will be charged.

Comments:

The Fiscal and Use Agreement is related, but separate from the Master Facilities Agreement. 

Staff anticipates that this item will require a total of 20 minutes, with 10 minutes for the staff report and 10 minutes for board member questions/comments.

Minutes:
Time start: 7:56 p.m. Time end: 8:23 p.m.

Public Comments:
* Nikki Kolhoff addressed the board regarding this item.

Ms. Leon-Vazquez recused herself from the discussion, as she is employed by the college. Staff answered board members’ questions regarding the number of days of use, the amount to be contributed by SMC, when the SMC Board of Trustees approved the agreement. Following discussion, the board agreed to postpone this item. The board gave staff direction to revise language regarding how dates are scheduled and how conflicts are resolved. Ms. Lieberman said would be willing to work with staff regarding the language.
.XI.D. Approve Master Use Agreement between Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District and Santa Monica Community College District (5 min)
Recommended Motion:

District staff recommends that the Board of Education approve the Master Facilities Use Agreement between Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District and the Santa Monica Community College District.  

Rationale:

SMMUSD and SMC have been close partners since we were part of the same unified school district. This Master Facilities Use Agreement codifies the processes how we share facilities to support the educational and community programs of both districts. This agreement allows us to continue to share athletic/recreational, performing/cultural and educational facilities.

The current shared use includes, but is not limited to: SMC using the softball field at Adams MS, conducting classes in the Samohi Auto Shop, and other regular activities; and SMMUSD using Corsair Field for Samohi home football games and use of other athletic facilities. This agreement excludes the Broad Stage and Barnum Hall. 

The agreement allows each party to use the others facilities when available as shared benefit with no permit or use charged. Additional personnel fees will be the responsibility of the party using the facilities. Both parties will maintain appropriate liability insurances. The agreement intends that there will be a parity in joint use between the two parties. 

The term of the agreement is ten (10) years from commencement.

 
Financial Impact:

The financial impact is overall cost neutral. SMMUSD gains by having the use of SMC facilities for no rental fee, and SMC gains from the use of SMMUSD. Additional personnel costs are the responsibility of the user group.

Comments:

This Master Facilities Agreement is separate, but connected to the Fiscal and Use Agreement between SMMUSD and SMC that is also on this agenda.

Minutes:
Time start: 8:23 p.m. Time end: 8:33 p.m.

Public Comments:
* Nikki Kolhoff and Ann Thanawalla addressed the board regarding this item.

Ms. Leon-Vazquez recused herself from the discussion, as she is employed by the college. Staff answered board members’ questions regarding details of the agreement. Following discussion, the board agreed to postpone this item.

  • Source: Measure ES
  • Budget Category: Construction Contract

Discovery Building – Guaranteed Maximum Price:

The award of the LLB contract for the construction of the Discovery Building is being done in a two-step process:

The first step was to award a contract for preliminary services and initial work, which also established fixed mark-ups that would be applied during the second step of the process. The District awarded a preliminary services contract in the amount of $2,796,636 to McCarthy Building Companies at the 2/07/2019 Board Meeting after issuing an RFP and conducting a Board-approved selection process. The award was for the previously defined preliminary services as well as the installation of shoring and the completion of bulk earthworks, which were permissible under the preliminary services agreement because they did not require DSA approval.  The amendment will require full DSA permit approval prior to execution.

The second step in the process involves competitively bidding all of the trades (subcontractors) and applying the mark-ups established in the awarded preliminary services contract. This process is used to arrive at the GMP. McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. used the Board-approved criteria to develop their proposed GMP of $139,308,921, including previously awarded preliminary services.  McCarthy also proposed several cost-saving value engineering options, discussed below, some of which are recommended for acceptance. The Architect of Record utilized the services of the estimating firm, Capital Projects Group, to produce an estimate of cost in April 2018 that was previously presented to the Board. At the time the construction cost estimate was for the amount of $115,364,000 based on the 95% Construction Documents (CD) design level. This estimate was revised to $117,458,000 with the further refinement of the building design to 100% CD design level.  An overall project budget adjustment was not requested at that time.  Had the GMP been in the neighborhood of $117.5 million, the project budget contingency would have been sufficient to cover the cost without adjusting the project budget or the Measure ES Samohi Allocation budget.

The increase in construction cost is believed to be due to several broad factors including:

  • construction cost escalation, which was about 3%/year more than estimated (8% vs 5%), compounded over 2 years for a net 6.4% increase;
  • ·very competitive market conditions, including challenges with a scarcity of labor, resulting in both higher prices and fewer bidders; and
  • trade tariffs (which the project’s professional estimator believes have added approximately 5% to the overall project construction cost).  

The FIP Department has explored the potential Value Engineering options proposed by McCarthy, which fall into two distinct categories: A) those that do not affect the design intent scope of the project; and B) those that do impact (reduce) the design intent scope of the project. Staff recommends that certain value engineering options be accepted, reducing the GMP by approximately $5.5 million.  The recommended value engineering options from category A include elimination of traffic coating in the structure, replacement of mineral wool insulation with fiberglass, alternative acoustical ceiling tiles, paint and plaster modifications, revised floor finishes, fire alarm changes, utilization of trees from the Branching Out Nursery, and other miscellaneous changes that will not impact the overall appearance or use of the facilities, totaling $2,525,170, including contractor mark-up. 

In addition, McCarthy proposed certain value engineering options in category B, some of which are not recommended or were not pursued, including elimination of the roof-top classroom, elimination of solar photovoltaic panels, and reduction of the size of the pool from 50m to 25m.  One value engineering item from category B that is recommended is the elimination of the pool shade structure and related foundations.  Although this element of the project was popular with the site, the FDAC, and the users, its elimination will result in approximately $3 million in savings to the project.  The shade structure itself is a savings of $2.3 million and the foundations associated with it are $700,000.

By accepting the recommended value engineering items, the proposed GMP will be reduced by $5,525,170, for a total GMP of $133,783,751.  The District is not permitted to enter into an agreement to construct the improvements until DSA permit approval is attained.  Final sign-off of the plans was scheduled to occur on June 4 or 5, and all final changes and corrections have been made, but DSA staff is away from the office at training and will be unable to sign and stamp the plans until June 11, 2019.  This award of the amendment is contingent on final acceptance and stamping of the drawings and issuance of the DSA permit and will not be effective until occurrence of the same.  

Discovery Building Project Budget Adjustment:

The overall Discovery Building project budget (which is part of the Measure ES Samohi Allocation budget), inclusive of construction hard costs, soft costs, and contingency, was previously established to be $172 million, based on an original construction hard cost estimate of $111.5 million, which is approximately $22.5 million below the recommended award amount, for the reasons previously stated.  Certain reductions have been recognized in the overall project budget, including below-budget permitting fees, construction management fees, inspection fees, and swing space/abatement/demolition costs.  In addition, it is recommended that the project contingency be reduced to 6% of construction costs with the remainder reallocated to the construction budget.  The net result of these changes is a total project budget increase of approximately $13 million, resulting in a revised overall total project budget of $185 million. 

Measure ES Samohi Allocation Budget Adjustment:

Additional funding, in the amount of $50 million, from either a future bond or Certificates of Participation has previously been authorized by the Board to supplement the original Measure ES - Samohi allocation, primarily to fund the combination of phases 1 and 2 and to increase the scope of the project by increasing the pool size and adding an additional level of parking, among other things.  With the passage of Measure SMS, this $50 million will be funded from the Samohi allocation of SMS, rather than COPs. 

Staff recommends approval of additional modifications to the Measure ES - Samohi Allocation budget, including reduction of contingency, reduction of BB shortfalls, transfer of Phase 3 design to Measure SMS, and increases to miscellaneous construction at the Samohi campus, which will result in an overall Measure ES Samohi Allocation Budget increase of $3 million, as indicated in the presentation documents presented during the discussion associated with this item.  The additional $3 million would also be funded from the Samohi Allocation of Measure SMS.

Comments:

Staff anticipates that this item will require a total of 30 minutes, with 20 minutes for the staff report and 10 minutes for board member questions/comments.

.XII. INFORMATIONAL ITEMS
Quick Summary / Abstract:
These items are submitted for the public record for information. These items do not require discussion nor action.
.XII.A. Supplemental Textbooks
Recommended Motion:

It is recommended that the supplemental textbooks listed below be adopted for the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District. 

Rationale:

In accordance with the Board of Education policy, the supplemental textbooks listed below will be on public display for the next two weeks in the Educational Services Department at 1630 17th Street, Santa Monica, CA 90404.

  • The Cold War: A New History, by John Lewis Gaddis, for Malibu High School world History course.  Adoption requested by Sean Ryan, History Teacher. 
 
.XII.B. Revision of AR 5141.21 – Administering Medication and Monitoring Health Conditions
Recommended Motion:

This is to inform the Board of Education that AR 5141.21 – Administering Medication and Monitoring Health Conditions has been revised. 

Rationale:

The policy and regulation have been updated to delete the requirements related to the administration of medication in cases of epileptic seizures, as Education Code 49414.7 repeals by its own terms on January 1, 2017, and to clarify that districts may continue to administer such medication under the general authority in state law. The policy and regulation also reflect new law (AB 1748, 2016), which authorizes districts to stock and administer medication in cases of opioid overdose.

The regulation also revises the definition of epinephrine auto-injector pursuant to new law (AB 1386, 2016).


 
Comments:

The corresponding policy can be found under Consent in this agenda.

The board discussed these changes at the May 16, 2019, board meeting.

.XII.E. Replacement of AR and Adoption of E 5141.3 – Health Examinations
Recommended Motion:

This is to inform the Board of Education that AR 5141.3 – Health Examinations has been replaced, and the exhibit has been adopted.

Rationale:

The regulation revises the section on "Hearing and Vision Tests" to more directly reflect law regarding the scheduling of vision tests and to reflect new law (SB 1069), which authorizes a physician assistant to sign a certificate showing that a student has already had a vision test conducted by medical professionals. The regulation also adds a new section on "Type 2 Diabetes Information" reflecting legal requirement to send type 2 diabetes information developed by the CDE to parents/guardians of students in grade 7.  The regulation reflects new law (SB 1172), which specifies the grade levels at which vision tests must be conducted and requires near-vision screening to be included in the tests. The regulation also expands material on hearing tests and reflects new law (SB 852), which extends the suspension of requirements for scoliosis screening through the 2014-15 fiscal year.

The new exhibit is a revised letter that is sent to all families of incoming seventh graders.  Staff believes this letter should be included as an exhibit.

Recommended Motion:

This is to inform the Board of Education that AR 5141.32 – Health Screening for School Entry has been revised, and the exhibit has been adopted.

Rationale:

The regulation has been updated to reflect new law (SB 379, 2017), which changes the date by which the district must report oral health assessment data to the county office of education and/or state dental director and requires the certification form developed by the California Department of Education (CDE) to include parental rights related to oral health assessments offered at school sites. The regulation also deletes the requirement to notify parents/guardians of the telephone number for the Healthy Families program, which is no longer operational.

The new exhibit is a revised letter that had been sent to families, that staff believes should be included as a new exhibit.
