All Purpose Room Floor – CTS presented new information on cleaning and sealing the allpurpose
room floor in the elementary school. The committee agreed that CTS would purchase
the cleaning products and provide labor to clean. If the cleaning works, the next decision will be

still owed to CTS.

plus the alternate bid 1 to the full board for approval.

discussed some changes to the approach for the roof and also two proposals he has received
regarding fixing the window panels when the air conditioners are removed.

bleachers and football field light replacement.
