| Item Title: | Status of Emma Hood Swim Center Complex and Approval of Contract for Short-Term Repair (10 Min/Action) | | Item Type: | Action | | Background: | On January 22, 2019, AUSD staff met officials from the Alameda County Department of Environmental Health (ACDEH) and discussed various code violations present at the Emma Hood Swim Complex located at Alameda High School. ACDEH noticed the District that the Emma Hood Pools will be closed unless the District performed certain short-term repairs and submitted a long-term plan to build a new swim center by May 30, 2019.
In response, the Board of Education and the City Council created an ad-hoc committee to discuss various issues and report to both agencies.
Estimate for short-term repairs, pending approval of scope of work by ACDEH, is $350,000. The City of Alameda is willing to cover 70% of short-term repair costs. Tonight staff will present an update on ad-hoc committee’s work and request that the Board approve budgeting up to $105,000 (30% of $350,000) for potential pool repairs.
