KBA – Attached report given by David Morais

· A Paging System meeting was held of October 6, 2011 in order to resolve the coordination issues of the paging function through the local sound systems in the Auditorium, Band Room, Chorus Room and Gymnasium.  All will be up and running on October 14, 2011;

· Cafeteria Cloud Revision Request – Mr. Morais presented to the SSBC three cloud options:  A. To extend the hole in the cloud in order to expose the entire skylight.  B. To cut back the large cloud to be only over the cafeteria entrance and  C. To increase the size of the hole in the cloud only to the first row of sprinklers in the cloud.  We are working on a solution re cafeteria cloud.

Chair Gladstone read an email from member Rick Rice referring to a meeting he had attended at the cafeteria and mentioned how difficult it was to hear the meeting and what was being discussed.  Mr. Rice suggests to do nothing with the ceiling until the issue of acoustics is resolved.

· Securing of the High Density File Storage Request by School Superintendent   Tim Farmer was discussed.  His request is to retrofit the filing system to include a lock.  KBA has provided three options:  Option A – Provide lockable drop pins at each movable storage unit – this option leaves one row unsecured.  Option B – Remove one of the stationary units and replace it with a movable unit with a closed back and the entire system would roll against one wall and secure with a lockable floor pin – this option secures the entire system.  Option C – Install an Overhead grille at the ceiling spanning from the toilet room wall to the office corridor wall that would lock off the entire H/D system area – this option secures the entire system. The Chair would like more information on Option A.
