Captain Benitez had to respond to an emergency call and was unable to attend the meeting to provide updates.

- All IT-related equipment has been removed from the old automotive building.
- The IT team is collaborating with FM to enhance outdoor WiFi coverage at the Learning Resource Center and Student Center.
- The team has initiated the purchase of IT equipment for Natomas.
- Progress continues on CTE classrooms and labs:
             • Second-floor teacher offices are nearly complete, with work shifting to the first floor next.
             • Ongoing work in rooms 208, 205, and 206.
             • AVI/SPL is scheduled to install AV equipment in five classrooms (CTE 216, 217, 245, 247, and 102) next week.
-A follow-up is needed regarding WiFi coverage near the football stadium.

-PE HVAC Upgrades:
An assessment report was completed by the design consultants and 2 project options were provided to campus, without full remodel. Both options cannot cool the entire locker room but will be able to provide some relief for students during hot summer days. One option allows for the installation of 4 split units in the locker rooms. The estimate for this option falls under the DSA threshold of approximately $250k. The second option requires full DSA approval. Campus chose the first option. The design team is moving forward. 

-Administration Building - BSO Office Remodel:
A scope, budget and schedule of $207,279 was provided. The abatement contractor’s contract is in review at Purchasing. Moniz architecture is providing contract documents. 

-Softball Turf and ADA Path of Travel:
ADA Path of travel and restroom modifications are 100% complete.

-Veterans Resource Center:
Plans are approved by DSA. FM, Facilities Management, is following up with their second in-house review and have submitted comments to the architect. The architects expect to have revised plans ready by Feb 28. FM will then coordinate with campus for required HVAC work preceding the remodel. 

-Davies Hall Fencing and PV1 restrooms:
FM and our Purchasing department are still actively working to lease Restroom Trailers as an interim means of providing restrooms when the fence is installed, followed by more permanent (temporary) restrooms which have a 10-12 month lead time. 
The goal is to have the portable restrooms installed concurrently or a little ahead of the fence project in the spring.

-NEC Phase II & III:
Project is 65% complete. Exterior framing and sheathing is nearing completion. Roofing continues to be impacted by wet conditions; however, the Contractor anticipates running crews on overtime to complete in the next 4 weeks. Mechanical/electrical/plumbing rough-in at Level 1 and 2 continues. Priority drywall at head of wall has begun using moisture resistant board. Sub-base has been installed at the north fire access road providing all weather access.

-Tech Ed Modernization:
The project is approximately 96% complete. The Auto Yard is substantially complete. Landscape in phase 1 has been turned over to the District. OFOI and OFCI continue to trickle in. Testing and Balance of systems (TAB) started Jan 6th and will continue through Feb 28--issues have come up with quality of systems, including low airflow at the Dean's area. Pre-punch list issued for about 90% of building and will continue as areas are ready and completed. Otto took possession of the old building February 10th, and abatement continues. Final project completion is projected for May 15, 2025.

Other On-going Projects:
•	Science Autoclave Replacement
o	Installation planned for Spring Break
•	Davies Hall Replacement
o	Emergency funding from the State has been requested by FM and the expectation to receive funding is favorable. District should receive an answer in a few months during the “May revise” of the state budget…so expecting a decision in June.
