Agenda Item Summary:
|
|
ACPS began the solicitation process for the Playground Condition Assessments for all schools in the Fall of 2022. There have been some challenges in procuring this work, however, negotiations are nearing completion and award of a contract is expected in April. Given the value of this contract, this will not require School Board approval. Inspections will begin this spring with the assessments to be completed for each school facility in time for incorporation into the planning cycle for the FY 2025-2034 CIP Budget.
The Playground Condition Assessments (PCA) will provide a benchmark of the current state of ACPS playgrounds and prioritize projects for maintenance, repair and/or replacement. This assessment, along with estimates of cost and project prioritization, will enable ACPS to make informed decisions on projects to pursue in the FY 2025-2034 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). |
