High School CSD Building and ● The proposal for the structural inspection of the Auditorium exterior Maintenance wall, the company would not change the contract with changes provided by the school districts solicitor. We are in the process of Update finding another firm to complete the report. ● Our BMS ( Building Maintenance System ) lost connectivity throughout High School sections of the building. We have been working on this for the last month and have established many areas. This continues to be a work in progress. ● Updated Athletic banners have been installed in the Gym. 4

Elkins Park CSD Building and ● The boiler has refractory that has collapsed and this will need to be Maintenance replaced. We are working on this with our contractor and awaiting a proposal. This was identified earlier in the year but no work was Update completed. This work is being completed by JCI at a cost of $9,164. There was a delay in getting the parts and this is now planned for next Elkins Park week. ● The water feed line on boiler 1 had a crack in the piping, CSD Maintenance made a temporary repair and we will plan the full repair in the coming weeks. 5

Wyncote CSD Building and As reported at the December meeting we had concerns with our Glycol lines as we had ● lost volume in the pipework. There were no visible signs of this anywhere in the building Maintenance where it was being lost. ● At the time we had concerns that we may have an underground leak in the piping which Update runs from the boiler room to the cooling tower. Image attached. ● We had our contractor out and isolated the system from the building. The system was Wyncote filled up and we lost pressure immediately. This was indication that there is a leak in between the building and cooling tower. ● We needed to isolate the main building for the cooling tower to ensure we still provided heat for the building. This was completed. Our next challenge was ensuring the cooling tower coils don't freeze as if they crack we ● would be looking at a very large sum of money to repair. ● The cooling tower in construction did not have access saddles to drain the system. ● We needed to install 4 access saddles to the system, re-insulate and refill the tower with glycol. ● The cost for the access saddles, insulation, air bleeders was $7,975. ● The cost to add glycol to the tower to ensure it would not freeze was $4,200. ● After Christmas we will need to arrange for the underground pipe to be tested and locate the leak and make plans to have this repaired. I have spoken with Cara and we are investigating if this will be covered under our insurance. ● We currently have the situation resolved and heat in the building but need this to be repaired in time for when we need Air Conditioning. 6

Elkins Park Air ● Elkins Park Currently only has minimal Air-Conditioning throughout the Conditioning building. ● This summer we installed 6 wall unit A/C units in the cafeteria and this Update provided great relief over the summer. ● The next few slides are proposals to install throughout the building. ● There is a need for power upgrades to achieve this. ● Due to the existing building conditions and possibility of construction at Elkins Park in the coming years, I feel this to be the best short term fix for resolve the Air conditioning issue until a decision in made in the coming years. 12
