Facilities update: pool site, gym floor, asbestos and accessibility door quotes awaiting LAUSD approval

The facilities representative updated trustees on several capital and maintenance matters. He said the existing pool is in good condition (chlorine and paint) but the district is exploring a new aquatics complex near the football field; staff are searching for sewer-line connections on older plans. The main gym floor needs another sanding and will likely need replacement in coming years; the gym also has sound/echo problems that the facilities team is evaluating.

On asbestos, staff said every project area is retested before work and that abatement and testing protocols are followed. Accessibility-door quotes from PBK for main-office automatic doors were submitted to LAUSD on June 20 and are still pending supervising-architect approval; the representative said the district's approval is the gating item before bringing a final contract for board approval. "PBK has reached out to them. Can we get an answer on this so we can move forward?" the facilities representative asked.
