EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Gunn High School – New Classroom Buildings A & B
Six bids were received on July 14, 2011 and the contract was awarded for $17.6M to BRCO Constructors at the July
22, 2011 BOE meeting. A kick‐off meeting was conducted on August 2, 2011 and the notice to proceed was issued
on August 24, 2011. BRCO mobilized, temporary construction site fencing is installed, and grading efforts have
commenced.
Gunn High School – Parking and Drop‐off Sitework Improvement
Design for the parking and drop‐off improvements will recommence in conjunction with the planning of group 2
projects.
Gunn High School – New Gymnasium
Six bids were opened July 13, 2011 and the contract was awarded for $8.35M to SJ Amoroso Construction at the
July 20, 2011 BOE meeting. Contracts were executed and a construction kick‐off meeting was conducted on
August 2, 2011. SJ Amoroso has mobilized, temporary construction site fencing is installed and demolition efforts
are underway.
Palo Alto High School – Athletics Stadium Improvements
Four bids were received for the bleacher project on August 18, 2011 and the low bid was significantly over budget.
The Concessions and Site Improvements project estimate was also over budget, so it was determined to reject all
the bleacher bids and consolidate the two projects into one bid package. A budget augmentation and/or de‐
scoping of the project will be discussed with the Stadium subcommittee and facilities steering committee (FSC) in
early September. If the FSC approves a budget increase, the project is anticipated to bid in November 2011 and
construction on the concessions building would likely commence in January 2012. The structural design for the
bleachers will be submitted by the successful bidder for DSA approval.
Palo Alto High School – Classroom Building and Media Arts Building
A contract was awarded to Taisei Construction Corporation (TCC) on July 12, 2011. Staff issued a notice to proceed
on July 27, 2011 and TCC began tree protection and installing construction fencing on August 1, 2011. Existing
asphalt paving was demolished, which has been ground up for reuse on site. The rest of the material is being
shipped offsite for recycling. Utility demolition commenced and will continue into next month.
Palo Alto High School – Performing Arts Center (PAC)
On June 28, 2011 the BOE requested that DLM and staff consider a facility to accommodate at least 100 more
seats above the 466 seat scheme recommended by staff. DLM completed a design that meets this request, which
includes a small balcony that accommodates 175 seats, for a total of 575 seats. The design and estimate will be
presented to the FSC on September 7, 2011.
Jordan Middle School
DSA is requiring campus‐wide ADA compliance improvements, therefore DSA approval is not expected until
October 2011, which will also add cost to the project. The project is now scheduled to go out to bid in October
2011, with construction to commence in January 2012.
Jordan Middle School ‐ Interim Classrooms
Coulter Construction was awarded the project at the July 20, 2011 BOE meeting and commenced work on July 28,
2011. Coulter installed underground utilities and prepared the foundation pad on schedule for installation of the
portables on August 15 and 16, 2011. Once the portables were placed, the remaining electrical, data, plumbing
and fire alarm installation work began and will continue through September 2011. The portables are anticipated
to be complete and ready for occupancy by September 30, 2011. The project is co‐funded with bond funds and
impact fees.

August 23, 2011. This included the front parking and drop‐off area and the installation of Smartboards, sound
assist systems, ventilation improvements, and lighting systems. The kindergarten bathrooms were also remodeled
with new ceramic tile, plumbing fixtures, flooring and ADA improvements. Current work on the new two‐story
building is focused on casework installation, tackable surface wall covering, and t‐bar ceiling installation. Exterior
pavers, sealant on the green roof, and concrete flatwork around the building are also underway.
Duveneck Elementary School – New Classroom Buildings and Modernization
Gelfand conducted a pre‐submission meeting with DSA on August 22, 2011 and met the new principal to review
the scope of the project on August 25, 2011. The master plan was on display at the Duveneck back‐to‐school night
on August 30, 2011 to promote project awareness and answer any questions. Gelfand continues design
development documents and anticipates submitting a package for district review in early October 2011.
Technology
The District purchased computers, utilizing bond funds, throughout the 2010/11 school year. During the year
there was a notable shift from desktops and laptops to handheld devices, primarily at the elementary school level.
At the end of the 2010/11 school year, orders were placed for equipment to be used in the 2011/12 school year.
Implementation of the Voice‐over‐IP (VoIP) telephone system is scheduled to begin at the district office this fall. A
major upgrade to the District's network is currently out for re‐bid, with bids opening in September 2011.

7. RENOVATION/MODERNIZATION (DEFINED)
For purposes of the Bond Project List, renovation and modernization projects are intended to
restore the building systems and infrastructure, weather protections, finishes, and technology, or
reallocate and reorganize space, to a condition that will provide a sustainable, functional educational
and administrative environment for future years, comparable to new construction.
Renovation projects may include, but are not limited to nor necessarily encompass, all of the
following, depending upon the age, condition and needs of each particular school facility:
1. upgrade electrical, communication, fire alarm, and similar building systems as well as main
power service and distribution, which may include active and passive solar power and
heating system acquisition, installation and construction
2. Replace, repair or upgrade plumbing, piping and drainage systems, including water supply,
meters, water heating, and wastewater systems, plumbing fixtures and sinks, etc., within
buildings and sites and to connect with city supply and drainage systems
3. Replace or modify aging heating, ventilation and air cooling systems with energy-efficient
heating and air cooling systems (HVAC), including installing energy management systems
(EMS);
4. Replace, modify, upgrade interior lighting and exterior safety/security lighting systems and
fixtures, as necessary;
5. Repair, modify and construct structural elements of the existing structure as necessary;
6. Replace or repair aging roofs with similar materials or District standard materials;
7. Replace, repair, install and construct, as necessary, interior walls, floor and ceiling finishes,
doors, door locks, windows, cabinets and casework, and equipment attached to wall surfaces
(including white boards, marker boards, tack boards, television mounts, scoreboards, fire
extinguishers, kitchen cabinets/equipment, etc.);
8. Upgrade, modify and construct restroom facilities;
9. Comply, as necessary, with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Title 24
requirements;
10. Refinish the exterior finishes of the school (including stucco, wood and metal trims, wood
siding, paint, etc.); replace doors and windows
11. Modify, expand, separate, convert and construct school support areas; staff work and lunch
areas; and educational areas to provide adequate, functional environments;
12. Modify, replace and construct functional components of altered or replaced building
components (including rainwater leaders, fascias, mansards, etc.);
For any project involving renovation, modernization, remodeling or rehabilitation of a
building or the major portion of a building, the District may proceed with new replacement
construction instead (including any necessary demolition), if the Board of Education
determines that replacement and new construction is more practical than rehabilitation and
renovation, considering the building’s age, condition, expected remaining life, comparative
cost, and other relevant factors.
