Arcola Community Unified School District 306 Building Committee met Nov. 4.

Here is the minutes provided by the committee:

Present: Tom Mulligan, Superintendent; Board Members: Dr. Robert Arrol, Lucas Shonkwiler, Erica Thieman, Sue Stout, Craig Wesch, Jim Crane and Chad Strader; Visitors: Ken Vogt, Jennie Sullender

The meeting was called to order at 7:00 pm.

Dr. Mulligan discussed two issues with the pending elementary school building project. First, he discussed that the district consultant, IDEAL are finding additional asbestos that will need to be removed. He indicated that he and Ken will be meeting with IDEAL to get a better handle on things later in the week. He also indicated that the original proposal did not include lighting fixtures in the hallway. Ken said that he would like for his staff to change out the lights so that we have updated fixtures to go along with the ceiling and paint upgrades. Dr. Mulligan indicated that Graham and Hyde and Poettker Construction will be here at 6 pm next Wednesday for a building committee meeting to present updates along with a schedule and a revised budget.

Dr. Mulligan presented the design for the high school media center renovation. His presentation included drawings and color schemes. He will be asking the board to give approval to go out to bid at the November Board Meeting.

The committee then discussed the football state banners in the high school gym. They discussed whether or not the district should go with uniform banners or keep the unique designs. This is being discussed because some are in need of repair. The building committee discussed getting feedback from members of the state tournament teams and working with Herff Jones to develop a concept.

The building committee also discussed the possible purchase of a Kubota for the maintenance department. The committee suggested we research the state bid price and bring to the board for consideration.

Finally, the committee discussed hosting a spring open house to share visuals of the building project and showcase the PLTW classroom, the new football locker room and the media center.

The building committee meeting temporarily adjourned at 8:00 pm.
