Replacement or renovation of a building in a condition seriously jeopardizing the health and safety of school children. A significant portion of the building’s heating and ventilation system components have either failed, exceeded their useful life, and/or are predicted to fail imminently. In addition, the building contains significant amounts of asbestos. As the building ages and requires more repair and maintenance, the likelihood of damage to asbestos containing materials and the release of asbestos into the school environment is expected to increase. Priority 5. Replacement, renovation, or modernization of school facility systems, such as roofs, windows, boilers, heating and ventilation systems, to increase energy conservation and decrease energy related costs. As noted above, a significant portion of the building’s systems (including roofs, windows, boilers, and HVAC systems) have exceeded their useful life. In addition, automated building control systems no longer function properly requiring frequent manual adjustment of mechanical equipment, significantly impeding our ability to manage and control energy use. Priority 7. Replacement of or addition to obsolete buildings in order to provide for a full range of programs consistent with state and approved local requirements. Over 50% of Salem High School students are currently enrolled in CVTE classes. The demand for programs that are relevant to our community, region, and state employers is growing tremendously. Unfortunately, the building as presently designed and equipped is unable to support the expansion of programs that would meet state requirements for CVTE certification. In addition, the constraints of the building prevent the district from providing a full range of programs in the fine and performing arts, and in the science, technology and engineering areas;  10 CITY OF SALEM APRIL 14, 2022 REGULAR MEETING COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE MAYOR and hereby further specifically acknowledges that by submitting this Statement of Interest Form, the Massachusetts School Building Authority in no way guarantees the acceptance or the approval of an application, the awarding of a grant or any other funding commitment from the Massachusetts School Building Authority, or commits the City of Salem, Massachusetts to filing an application for funding with the Massachusetts School Building Authority.
