DATE: July 20, 2020
TO: Loren Jones, Chair
Joint Assembly School Board Facility Planning Committee
FROM: Katie Koester, Director
Engineering & Public Works
SUBJECT: Capital Priorities for Schools in Proposed Bond Package
The purpose of this memo is to facilitate conversation of the Planning Committee for City
and Borough School District in a bond package being discussed by the CBJ Assembly.
Background
The combination of the economic hardship brought on by the Coronavirus pandemic, the
low cost of borrowing, and the current debt capacity of the CBJ has prompted conversation
surrounding a General Obligation bond package to go before the Juneau voters in October
with the purpose of stimulating the local economy through needed construction and
deferred maintenance projects. On Monday, July 20, the Assembly will be introducing an
ordinance to bond for up to 15 million dollars for a combination of school, road and park
improvements. Of that $15 million, it is envisioned that $5 million would be for school
facilities, which is the topic of this meeting.
School Roofs
The school district submits a 6-year Capital Improvement Plan to the State Department of
Education and Early Development (DEED) Annually. The current application, in draft form,
is attached.i The top three priorities on that list are roof replacements, totaling $5.25m.
This list is also reflected in the CBJ 6-year CIP.ii These cost estimates were produced by the
CBJ Engineering Department last year. However, as is indicated on the draft DEED
application, the cost estimate could increase; DEED has a cost estimating tool that takes
into account a variety of mark-ups, including a COVID-19 mark-up. In addition, it is
unknown if the roof at Riverbend Elementary would need new insulation or not. As
insulation could be a major cost driver, it will be included on the application to DEED as
there is no reason not to be as inclusive as possible on the DEED application. The bottom
line is the estimates are just that; estimates. With design, we will be able to hone down on
more precise cost estimates. In the end, we will do the most improvements possible for the
lowest possible cost. The CBJ Assembly appropriated $1.5m to replace the Gastineau Roof
in the FY2021 CIP.
Other Deferred Maintenance Projects
The FY2021 CBJ Capital Improvement Plan has appropriated $1 million for Juneau School
District Major Maintenance. A wide variety of projects will be accomplished with this
Page 3 of 10
funding source, and the School District Facilities Committee helps prioritize that list with the
input of CBJ engineering and school district staff. A copy of JSD Capital Improvement
Projects is included in your packet.iii
Recommendation
Discuss upcoming bond package proposal as it relates to Juneau School District facility
projects.

Six-Year Capital Improvement Plan
OVERVIEW
A six-year plan is a vital document for districts in planning and anticipating necessary capital improvement
projects. A capital improvement project is a substantial, non-recurring expenditure for a physical
improvement with a long useful life. Capital projects are not part of the district's preventive (including
routine) maintenance or custodial care programs.
Projects may be derived from reviewing renewal and replacement schedules or population projections,
needs identified by school personnel or professional architect or engineer through a condition survey, or
recommendations from an energy audit, etc.
The district is encouraged to use and submit this form, required under AS 14.11.011 for grant or debt
reimbursement applications, as a planning and presentation tool for all capital projects, regardless of
whether the project will be submitted for AS 14.11 state aid funding consideration. It can be a valuable aid
to a school board in fulfilling its duty under AS 14.08.101 to approve the district’s six-year capital plan.
For questions on completing this form, contact DEED Facilities section staff.
https://education.alaska.gov/Facilities/
SET UP
1. Header
Open up the existing document header to add the school district name and update the fiscal year (FY)
span. Note: the first fiscal year of a six-year capital plan is typically two years after the current
calendar year (e.g. a capital plan reviewed in March of 2019 will address FY 2021 - FY 2026).
2. Tables
Adjust the “FY 20YY TOTAL” in each table to reflect the six years of the plan.
3. Certification
Edit the text at the end of the document to fill in the name of the school district board and the date of
the meeting when the six-year capital plan is approved and adopted.
PROJECT TABLE
1. District Priority
Projects should be listed in district priority order. Priority is continuous through all fiscal years (e.g. the
first fiscal year lists 6 projects, the second fiscal year list will begin with district priority #7, and so on).
Inclusion of non-AS .14.11 projects do not adversely affect CIP application scoring.
2. Primary Purpose
A project must meet one of the project definitions outlined in AS 14.11.014 to qualify for AS 14.11
state aid. Reference also Appendix A, “Instructions to completing the Application for Funding for a
Capital Improvement Project”.
3. Project Title & Description
Provide a short, descriptive project title that includes the facility name, major project scope, and town/
village (if in a borough or REAA serving multiple communities). The project title should match any
Form # 05-19-051 Six-Year Plan Instructions
Alaska Department of Education & Early Development Page 1 of 2
Page 5 of 10
CIP application submitted to the department for AS 14.11 funding. Include a detailed scope of work
that includes impacted facilities, systems, or components, and necessitating conditions. Note: including
the estimated funding from non-district sources can be helpful for internal district fiscal planning.
4. SOA Aid
If a district is anticipating AS 14.11 state aid, grant or debt reimbursement, check the box or provide
another notation.
5. Estimated Project Cost
Enter the estimated or actual amount of total projects costs, which include design, construction,
equipment, administrative costs, etc. This includes all funding sources: district, local, state, or federal.
6. Adding or Deleting
Each fiscal year should include as many rows as needed to encompass anticipated district projects.
To preserve formatting, insert a new row(s) by selecting a middle row then inserting by right-clicking
or through the table layout tab. Delete any unnecessary rows.
7. FY Total Project Costs
Enter the sum of the above column of estimated project costs for each fiscal year.
EXAMPLE TABLE
District Primary SOA Estimated
Priority Purpose Project Title & Description Aid Project Cost
1 D Very Wet Elementary School Roof Replacement X 6,000,000
Very Wet Elementary is a 50,120 sqft single-story school
built in 1980. The roof is original to the school. It is an
IRMA roof and has had numerous leaks in the last 10
year. This project will remove the old roof system,
including abatement, and inspect the substrate. The new
roof will be an EPDM 30 year roof with R80 insulation.
Includes new rain drains, new mechanical curbs and pre-
painted metal flashing.
2 E Damp Middle School Lighting Upgrades 882,900
Damp MS is a 38,009 sqft school built in 1987. The
majority of the original lighting fixtures were replaced in
2001 with T-8 fluorescents. Modern LED technology
will provide an energy savings, with a payback of four
years. This project will upgrade all interior and exterior
lighting fixtures with energy-efficient LEDs and replace
all original wiring and switches.
n/a n/a FY 2021 TOTAL: $6,882,900.00
CIP SUBMITTAL
Minimum project cost for consideration in the DEED CIP grant process is $50,000.
If submitting for AS 14.11 funding, mail completed and signed form by September 1; submit two (2) copies
with the application packet, regardless of the number of applications submitted.

electrical, plumbing, exterior envelop and sidewalks. One
critical issue is the school does not have a dining space;
instead it uses the gym which limits physical activity classes
