SUMMER WORK 2015 The Facilities Committee approved Bid Package 1 for Summer Work 2015 and recommended sending it to the full board for approval. BOUDARY SURVEY FOR NILES NORTH Tom Rychlik from Gewalt Hamilton gave the committee 2 options for obtaining boundary surveys for Niles North to identify any encroachments and give the administration a clear understanding of property boundaries. The committee agreed to complete boundary research and field work specific to the south, west, and north boundaries of Niles North at a cost of $10,250. If agreed, iron rods and concrete monuments would be installed to conform to plat law, a recordable mylar plat included for an additional $2,500. A decision will be made to do this last step after the initial field work is complete. PLAT OF DEDICATION Tom Rychlik from Gewalt Hamilton reported to the committee that the intersection improvement requested by D219 must have all equipment including signal bases and magnetic detection devices within the public right of way in order for IDOT to approve the project. An area that is approximately 100 feet wide and 42 feet deep
needs to be dedicated from D219 to IDOT to complete this project. The committee recommends the Board agree to the Plat of Dedication. WINDOW TINTING AT NILES NORTH The committee agreed unanimously to complete the window tinting on the remaining bottom windows of the East side of Niles North in conjunction with the construction of the school based health clinics. ELECTRICAL GROUNDING OF NILES WEST POOL The administration requested a proposal from AMSCO Engineering to determine if the pool at Niles West and the associated systems meet current electrical code requirements. This was brought to light when the preliminary scope of work for the window replacement at Wests’ pool resulted in the discovery of deteriorating electrical wiring used for grounding of metal parts of the pool. The committee agreed to approve the proposal from AMSCO Engineering for an amount not to exceed $3,500. FOOTBALL SCOREBOARDS AT NILES NORTH AND NILES WEST
