Um, so like you say, like a lighting system. Is it urgent? I'm not sure. The reason I'm saying this is actually to Deb Mankey in the in the town council because we're just looking at this the capital budget and looking to I'm recognizing that there is likely a large tax increase this year. And I'm not sure exactly when the new revenue will hit like from the north end or anything like that. So in the next year or two trying to minimize um increased spending and increase taxes the capital budget. Basically what I said to Emily is where there is stuff that can be delayed reasonably responsibly for say a year or two, let's just try to push some of that stuff out. And some of it that might be like you know repaving. We repave our roads on a 20-year cycle. we should be repaving our parking lots on a 20-year cycle if you just assume it's, you know, that's how long it would last.
>> And the So, the kitchen renovation is what we were talking about. >> Yes. >> Okay. Um, >> I think we saw all of these. >> The greenhouse demolition is >> Wait, I do you want to do that right now? Do we need to do that right now or could get that could that get pushed out? Is there a reason to >> It's been pushed out. So, um I think I think when we when we go through this list again, there's a like, you know, um >> I think that if you ask the high school principal, he would say yes because there's kind of a a you know, some climbing concerns. Um with But, you know, overall, will it stay another year? >> Yes. >> Okay. I'm just I'm just >> It's not going to collapse. >> No. Tomorrow. No. >> Okay. And it's it's low.
Two. I mean, so I'm sure they're doing the whatifs and doing as much planning as they can, just as we are if we So I I don't know. Um those conversations I'm sure are taking place on what do we do if um and some of those conversations quite frankly have come my direction from different districts on you know different partnerships. Hey if you do go would you be willing to do this or would you be willing to do that? Nothing agreed upon just >> people throwing out hey ideas >> like a decount county per se. Yeah, there could be people that were thinking, you know, [clears throat] Steen County. They're all all speculation. I cannot confirm that, >> right? >> But I'm sure conversations have been going on throughout the four county area with four districts submitting their letters. >> So, when we did that, of course, it [clears throat] set up this process that we're dealing with now.
Okay. But Well, if we had replay Yeah, only if we had replay. Well, whoever passed it >> Well, I'm sure Watchus is pulling it up right now. We just can't see it. They're definitely They're good like that. >> So, this is maybe the first time that there's been more than a one goal lead for either team. 7 to 5 with 4:51 left to go in the third quarter. >> Come on, Ashley. Nice work. >> does a good job with the draw control there. And it's been a while since we had won one. Yep. I'd like to see the seniors stepping up last couple games doing, you know, taking charge, going to the goal, making things happen. It's kind of the first couple games of the season we'd recognize, you know, really just everyone kind of sitting around waiting for someone to do something and you got to put on those seniors, those upperclassmen that have been around and know what to do it.
But at this particular moment in time, I think it might behoove us to push out some of those projects that are not necessary at this moment in time. I'm just offering it up to the council as some options for trying to minimize spending in taxes right now if the council is so interested. That's all. I think that's it for me. >> Thank you, Mr. White. Um, Mr. Eki, you alluded to people not understanding the perhaps uh the loading dock project. Um I'm one of those people and I'm wondering if somebody could explain so what is the loading dock specifically used for? >> So it's it's on the uh the south side of the school adjacent to the cafeteria. This is where all the food comes in and out of the building. So ideally the the goal is to replace the loading dock and expand the loading dock so we can uh in a future time add some exterior refrigeration as well.
>> No, I mean, you know, if it if there's a danger, a few years back, we had, you know, roofing, you know, roofing failed. We repaired that. I mean, it's not going to we're not going to just leave it there to rot away, is >> an appendage no longer used. We maintain it and >> yeah, it's and it's >> it's just not utilized. >> It's locked and it's also the entryway is through a staff office. So, it's not an easily accessible space. So, >> um, so I, as I mentioned when we were walking around the window replacement, I realize I don't want to gum up the works with a performance contract, but if you could at least ask about that, like I mean, if we could because that's in my mind that's what it's for is to basically do um these sorts of projects. We don't have to I think most voters would agree windows get replaced.
So, January through June of this year, um we've been committed to making sure that this was a transparent um purposeful activity and to make sure that we were going to uh do a deep dive on everything we could relating to the co-op so that when we bring a recommendation to you, you have all the information you need um to make the ultimate decision. We hope to bring you the the right decision. Um the uh in February the board then agreed for some additional assistance. We entered into a contract um contract agreement with Angela Balsley who is a kind of a an expert in this area. Uh really dealing with everything but the finances. So that's she's been really good to work with and and Lori has been working with her along with Kelly Hudson who is one of our innovation coaches who specifically helps to coach our special education teachers and she come she was a special education teacher when she first came to DAL.
We've got a fast break opportunity for for Detom. Julia and Chase Amy side and Chase. Got to collapse on that Sam. There you go. Good job. Brooke Marino Ooh. She dropped the ball. Let's get it back to the goalie. Ooh, I thought that was going to be a cover. >> I thought for sure it was a cover, but Can't put your stick on top of that ball if it's uh There's Alana Gonsalves deep again. That that bounce is going to be tough. You got it. If you let that one bounce Ooh, it worked out, I guess. >> I I take that back. She played it perfectly. >> All right, when those those balls bounce off that turf, that can really You got to go for a wide >> You got to get that You got to go get that ball for it bounces, especially the second bounce could be the worst.
So because I I learned all kinds of stuff tonight like we don't >> that would be heavy equipment, right? >> Yes. But we we don't have the capacity to keep all the food necessary to feed the high school students at the high school. So we have we have outside maintenance people who are regularly moving food from one school to another. And eventually the ultimate goal will be to replace the loading dock, have the storage facilities on site so we can eliminate that. But the the loading dock at as it exists is at its useful life at the end of its useful life and there's literally scaffolding. So when and and this was new to me as well. You look at the loading dock and you think that that's at ground level. It goes down another five feet underground level. So, it's literally they have steel I beams propped up by scaffolding to keep the thing afloat.
They're what, 40 or 50 years old is what you're looking at. >> 40 50 year old windows. Um, if we could bake it right into the performance contract, I think that would be great. We already have Windows in there anyway because that's what these things are designed for. >> But again, I don't want to gum up the works on a much bigger project >> and windows will be a never ending requirement. >> Yeah. >> The brand new windows on the new edition that was completed in 2000, >> they're only 20 plus years old. >> Those windows need to be replaced already. So, I mean, it just it's never ending. It's like owning a house. You just got to keep spending more money. >> Yeah. And I think you know we're looking at if you look back at DOD that's 3.8 right for windows when we talk about school modernization.
Um, and then Nate Williamson, he's a familiar name. He helps us with our title grants and so he's very familiar in this world. Um, and used to work for the DOE and now is independent. And so utilizing his skill set made complete and total sense and certainly appreciate the board giving us the opportunity to work with two experts who could look at things through a clear lens. And I think we've been having Nick just working with Mark and Gina run the numbers. Run the numbers because we're talking um this isn't a small amount of money. We're talking about when we talk about the total funding for special education, it's it's in the millions. Um the focus for us have been the staffing portion. What would our staffing look like? um if we would create our own structure because there are programs that do not exist uh at Decal Central that would have to be created.
Is that a That's a a red ball, okay. Love to see Erin Hickey get one on the on the board to add to this sooner than later. Peyton Trip on the ride joined by Lilly Viti. Laney Early trying to slow her down. She is out of bounds, I think. I don't think really. Couple of whistles there. >> Referee is talking to somebody about something. That looked clean to me, Kevin. I thought a lot of sticks were vertical. There wasn't a lot of cross checking going on there. It has been physical. I mean, the the rides have been allowed to be physical. So, that that one little surprising, but They play on. Ashley >> Nice job, Ashley Forster, getting back. Making a great play. That was really well done, but the caused turnover there by Ashley now back to Alana, and once again looking for someone to spring open.
>> Thank you for that. A a picture paints a thousand words. >> Yeah. >> Thank you. >> Um sorry, I'll >> go ahead. Go ahead. I mean I can't when I listen all this I just can't it's you know the penny wise pound foolish or an ounce of preventions or the pound of care like I just feel like we let things I just comment we just let because of budgets or cuts or what we let things get to a point where it's like emergency and then you know it's more expensive it it's and I it frustrates me and so I would like to I don't know whatever it takes get to a point where I don't know we can I don't know if it's a money thing or a m like an attention It's a money thing because we're looking at the the windows on at the high school on the science wing.
Yeah. You know the high school 1.9. So these are bigger projects on older buildings. So >> uh all right. Anything else about the high school or the maintenance area facility services before we get into districtwide projects? Okay. Uh so for district-wide projects, you'll see uh none of these are referendum level items, but the first one is inter interior exterior door replacement. Uh this is overall a three-year outlay for a total of $300,000 with $100,000 in year one. So these are fire doors, classroom doors, and hardware. Um worst first basis. So lots of door repairs across the district. Um, we have some masonry repairs. So, in year one, that's $150,000, but the total five-year value of the project is $450,000. Um, Rich, I don't know if you want to say anything about the masonry or any hot spot areas. >> Well, masonry restoration, I mean, we've started actually actively doing restoration probably about eight years ago.
Um programming part of that as well, programs that don't currently exist, so we'd have to create them here. Examples of that would be like an emotional disabil disabled classroom, emotional disabilities classroom at the elementary and middle school level. We'd have to create those programs. We'd have to staff those programs. Uh, another one would be u a bright horizons. A bright horizons are for students who cannot tolerate an emotional disabilities classroom and it's even a more um restrictive um placement for a student that cannot uh handle uh that environment. Those are just a couple of examples of programs that we don't currently host that we know that we would have to. And then when you think about programming and staffing, every co-op program that we currently host, we would be taking over. So all of our applied skills programs, our early intervention programs, our school sites, all the testing that happens, any behavioral specialists that uh we would have to bring on board.
I'm a big fan of the long ball, Kev. It has worked twice, and you know, if we can get that ball over the defense, why not go for it? Like in this situation right now, Payton is wide open. Payton should be going. Oh, she should have kept going the other way. Oh. It worked out, I guess. Very accurate throw there by Alana to Lilly Vitti. Alana has just been a rock this season back there. She's making great saves, making good passes, great breakouts. Yeah, her save percentage is up to coming into the today was 55%, which is just For a lacrosse goalie, that is a wild number. >> That is outstanding. >> Hey, college scouts, get ready. Get that Get their Get the uh highlight reel going cuz she's going to have a probably plenty offers once uh the season's up. Yeah, she's coming coming up on 400 saves.
So that that is on the uh the north side and the west side >> and the windows are 50 years old >> and the windows don't last 50 years. And that >> is going to be a roughly $2 million project. And we're wondering, you know, how much of that do we put forward to the capital budget? Because it's not just there that needs windo windows. Dod's windows on the addition are now 25 years old that need to be replaced. I mean, so it's it's a constant >> it it's a constant fight. And you know, how much can we go to the taxpayers for, >> right? >> Because everything is a big ticket item. And you know, we've got all the other maintenance issues of fire alarms and and you know, our maintenance garage doesn't have fire fire detection in it, CO alarms. I mean, these are things that we have to do.
So we've we've it's amazing the amount of brick facade we've saved in that amount of time. It's expensive. Repointing is not it's a labor intensive activity, but it protects it's an exterior part of the building. It's critical part of the building. It has to be maintained. It would be nice if it was all vinyl siding, but you know, it's not. It's all brick facade and that weathers and deteriorates. So, that's something we try to pick away at. You know, spending uh that kind of money every summer I think has uh has had some benefit. >> Um the next is roof repair, $125,000 in year one, but over all $375,000. Um and then we have acoustical ceiling tile, $300,000 in year one, $500,000 over the course of five years. Um, we have the elementary school playground equipment replacement. So, we were approved at $250,000. We've requested um $250,000 more in year one and then in year three for a total ask of $500,000.
The [clears throat] big piece there is finance. Um that's why it's bold on the PowerPoint. Next slide, Angie. I'm sorry. Didn't tell you that. [clears throat] And flip to the next one. Sorry. And the next one. There we go. Um compliance is the the one that um we're also focusing on and that's basically the legal aspects. If we are right now we have the co-op kind of by our side. We have complaints filed by parents uh mitigation and mediation [clears throat] or due process. Um we have parents that are not happy or disappointed in how things are going. regardless of the situation. Right now, we have the co-op that helps stand beside us and we're able to, you know, we use a lot of legal support through the co-op for that. Uh, so again, that would be something that we would take on. Um, questions so far.
Uh perhaps she even got a tay already. I don't know what the milestone is for goalies. Is it Is it 500, 1,000, 100? I know she celebrated 100 Yeah, I I think >> last year, but um at some point last year, and I don't know what the next one is, but Every 100 they they do talk about. On Julia. This clear my net um ended up being successful. Didn't Didn't really look pretty. Caroline Brennan Camp trying to get that ball picked up. Nice job. Right over to Kendall. So, You You can see the the inexperience a little bit of the actual defenders. They're a little bit afraid. They want to get rid of the ball as quickly as possible. And sometimes that leads to to passes that might be a little bit difficult. Here is So, Maggie going to rip one. No, she dishes it off.
