5.4.12. Bernheim Middle School- CO 31- Miscellaneous Exterior Work
Danny Clemens
Rationale

This CO includes two CORs for work to address finishing at the exterior of this building.  Costs include the following: 

COR 45- Civil drawings indicated to tie a downspout into existing storm piping, however there was no existing DS shown at this location.  It was located on the elevation on Sheet A2.1, but no further details provided.  The downspout was installed with no boot because the patio was originally scheduled to be gravel.  When the patio was replaced with concrete, a new boot and storm connection was installed to tie into the site storm system rather than draining directly onto the concrete patio.

COR 48- Existing louvers that are scheduled to be reinstalled required additional patching and will break metal to complete the reinstallation.

5.6.5. Insurance Change
Lisa Lewis
Rationale

Currently, the district holds its Commercial Property, Commercial General Liability, Commercial Automobile, and Commercial Umbrella insurance policies with Liberty Mutual Insurance through Assured Partners NL LLC.  In June 2024, the Board approved the renewal of these policies for a full year.

Although we typically do not make changes to our insurance coverage mid-year, the district has a unique opportunity to join the Bluegrass Risk Management (BRM) insurance program.  This would involve discontinuing our policy with Liberty Mutual as of December 31, 2024, and starting a new policy with BRM effective January 1, 2025.  

A program highlight is attached.  Due to the potential benefits, I respectfully request the Board's approval to transition our insurance coverage to the BRM insurance program as of January 1, 2025, despite this mid-year adjustment.

Rationale

The BCPS Calendar Committee will meet on November 18, 2024 to develop and finalize three calendar options for the 2025-2026 school year for stakeholders to vote on.  The calendar survey will be open from November 19th through November 22nd.  In order to act on the school calendar, the Board must hold two (2) meetings: 1) one that includes hearing and discussing recommendations from the Superintendent and calendar committee results and 2) a subsequent meeting that includes adoption of the calendar.  The meetings may be special or regular.   I plan to share the survey results with the Board on Monday, November 25, during the regular board meeting and would like to recommend that the Board adopt the 25-26 school calendar on their December 16th regular board meeting.
