CAPITAL EXPENDITURES COMMITTEE REPORT TO 2016 ATM in replacing this High School HVAC system. This appropriation will fund the next step in the process. This Committee unanimously recommends approval. Project Description Amount Requested Funding Source Committee Recommends (d) Municipal Building Envelope and Systems $187,329 GF (Cash) Approval (5 -0) "This ongoing capital request, originally approved for funding in the 2006 Proposition 2 1/2 Override, includes repair /replacement projects for the maintenance and upgrade of municipal buildings and systems. Repairs to roofs, windows, mechanical and electrical systems, and interior finishes are required on a continual basis to maintain town facilities for their intended function. The public building infrastructure will always need to be maintained, repaired, and upgraded to prevent structural deterioration and avoid safety hazards. The projects within this program do not increase the size of the public building stock and therefore do not result in increased utility usage or maintenance costs. This year's request intends to implement extraordinary repairs at Cary Memorial Library, including the south entrance door system and improvements to mitigate large amounts of ice dams that form during the winter season." [Brown Book, Page XI -17] Project Description Amount Requested Funding Source Committee Recommends (e) Building Flooring Program $150,000 GF (Free Cash) Approval (5 -0) "This is a multi -year project that will replace carpet, vinyl tile, and ceramic tile flooring systems are beyond their useful life. Flooring systems must be replaced periodically to insure the surfaces are safe and cleanable. Worn or broken flooring creates a tripping hazard, can provide harborage for bacteria and water, and is difficult to clean. Smaller repairs of flooring components are funded through the operating budget. This is the seventh year of this program and new flooring systems have been installed in Clarke stairwells, classrooms, and auditorium, Hastings main corridor, Diamond School, and Central Administration and LHS. In FY 2017, flooring systems in Cary Memorial Library will be replaced at a value of approximately $50,000, in coordination with a planned renovation of interior spaces. Replacement of additional spaces will be prioritized in the spring of 2016." [Brown Book, Page XI -17] Project Description Amount Requested Funding Source Committee Recommends (f) Public Facilities Bid Documents $100,000 GF (Free Cash) Approval (5 -0) "This is an annual request for funding of professional services to produce design development, construction documents, and/or bid administration services for smaller school projects in anticipation of requests for construction funding at town meeting that that have a high probability of approval. This will insure that the projects can be completed in the then - current construction season, which is particularly important for the timely completion of such projects given the short window between the end of school in June and the beginning of school the following August."
