We're not spending dollars, but weare shifting and adjusting. We want to close out this fund. The waterline project is completeand almost closed out. We are working toward closing out other projects. A coupleof things to note are that ADA Building Access and ADA Site Access funds are beingused to fund other things. We are still working on pool deck repairs. Bat abatement wascompleted, but at a lower amount. We left in the gas line project. When you look at afew added items, such as the Amphitheatre Deck project, please note that part of the redevelopmentdollars help pay for the lease revenue bond. In order to do that, we needsome projects in public spaces and we can account for money spent in that way. That'sone of the reasons the Amphitheatre Deck project is on the list. It's deteriorated, and anyrepairs in terms of wood will not be satisfactory. We're looking at putting in a concretesurface to make it safe and usable. It's roped off as we take a look at trying to fix it. Anotherproject on the list is for the Library Carpet. There is still a bunch of carpeting notreplaced. This is another public space so it's a good place to put the funds. You mighthave noticed the donated carpet tiles in the lobby. We're testing them now to see if weshould use them across campus. They're extremely durable, easy to clean, and laydown really fast. The carpet tiles in the lobby are for a high traffic area; we can get lowergrade tiles for lower traffic areas, for example, between the stacks in the Library. Wewant to make sure it's a good product first. Mrs. Pratt asked how our institution was chosento test the carpet tiles. Mr. Rodrigue said George Estrada, Director of Physical Plant,is persistent. Mr. Estrada said the vendor showing us his products said he would give us30 yards of carpet tiles to test, and I told them we needed 99 yards. They gave it to us.They brought in the material and an installer from Pennsylvania to show us how to installthe tiles. Butte College is testing them too. We'll see how we like it as it goes along. Mr.Pierson asked the price per square foot. Mr. Rodrigue replied $30 per square yard. Ourown staff will do the installation. The benefit is its long-term life, ease of cleaning, andself-installation. It went down much faster than we anticipated. They came in the morningand within 'Y:! day the main area was complete, and they were just finishing the detailwork. Mrs. Pratt asked if that included removing the old carpet. Mr. Rodrigue said it wasremoved prior to the installation day. The carpet tiles are easy to take up and put backdown, and they're easy to clean. We can order more than we need, and can swap themout for cleaning. Mrs. Pratt asked if the price was $30 per square yard or square foot.Mr. Rodrigue replied $30 per square yard, and there are 9 square feet per square yard.The next item on the report is for Emergency Lock Downs. There are a number of thingsto do for emergency lock downs in the buildings. The first phase is to put push buttonsinside all of the classrooms to be used in an emergency. This will allow instructors tolock the door with a push button from the inside instead of locking the door with a keyfrom the outside. It's not unusual for instructors to not bring their keys. Mr. Miller askedif this can be done remotely so there will not be a lot of hardwiring required. Mr. Rodriguesaid they will just be push locks. We will then phase in exterior door locks andelectronic access. Another phase in will be for security, but that piece will be much moreexpensive. The other phase in will be security for this building. Mr. Rodrigue said theseare some of the new items. Other items you've seen before. Some dollars have beenshifted, but we felt that was the best way to spend down this money. Mr. Reeves askedif college staff would be installing the locks on the doors. Mr. Rodrigue replied yes.
