The general contractor has started the tenant improvement. A security guard is not on site 7 nights per week to prevent the extensive vandalism that has occurred since March 1. The campus should be rekeyed within the next month. Negotiations are on going regarding access to fields and the gym for our athletics. The facility use agreement with Alpine AYSO for after school and weekend use of the soccer field on site has been transferred to LFCS and expires June 2022. As LFCS has taken occupancy of the site effective March 1, 2022 all utilities, campus security, and insurance are now our responsibility. All utilities have been transferred to us. Insurance coverage is in the process of being transferred.

Update on SOS lawsuits
On March 18 in the case against SDCOE, the judge ruled against the LFCS led demurer to throw out the case. SDCOE counsel will make their own demurer arguments on May 6. It appears unlikely the judge will grant that demurer either as she made clear that she thinks all the arguments related to the demurer issues should be heard at the trial hearings and not as demurers. On May 6, a trial date will be scheduled. We continue to wait for the appeal hearing to be calendared in the case v. San Diego County Board of Supervisors.

Approve a contract for roof repairs to LCHS Alpine MPR
The CBO recommends the board approve the Wise Roofing contract to replace the roof shingles on the MPR at the LCHS Alpine site. We have been happy with the work they have done for us in the past, have the proper licenses and insurance, and have the lowest bid for tear off and replacement at $44,240. Christian Roofing's tear off and replacement bid is $47,000, and Mendi's bid through CA Granite and Flooring is $41,500 for just replacement over existing shingles (no tear off). AUSD (Alpine Union School District) agreed with this recommendation and has authorized a $44,240 offset to our first month's rent.
The CBO recommends the board approve the San Diego Moving bid to move the furniture, curriculum, equipment, tools, and miscellaneous items from current LCHS site in Lemon Grove to the future LCHS site in Alpine.
San Diego Moving's bid totals $14,625 (taking 4-5 days; 10 years experience).
A+'s bid is $15,000 (taking 7-8 days; 2 years experience).
Diamond's bid is $18,000-$19,010 (4-5 days).
Best Fit Movers' bid is $21,360 (4-5 days).
Qshark's bid is $64,890 (4-5 days).
San Diego Moving is locally and family owned and has strong online reviews. The owner conducted the estimate in person and on site.
Annual Resolutions for Authorized Designated Agents
The CBO recommends the board approve Resolutions 2022-07, 2022-08, 2022-09, 2022-10 authorizing Debbie Beyer and Steve Robinson as authorized agents for LFCS in regards to financial decisions, rights, and duties with SDCOE (signing warrants, picking up warrants and paychecks, receiving mail, reissuing warrants, verifying oaths of allegiance).
The CBO recommends the board approve the Wise contact to reroof the southern auditorium building and the two sheds at the Junior Academy. Wise has completed roof work for us before, have done a good job, have completed the work on time, and have the lowest bid. The CBO will apply for CDE approval to use ESSER II funds for this contract as fixing leaking roofs improves air quality which is an allowable use of ESSER II funds. Similar projects have been approved for LFCS previously.
The CBO recommends the board approve the Wise contract to reroof the classroom buildings at the Primary Academy. The CBO will apply for CDE approval to use ESSER II funds for this contract as fixing leaking roofs improves air quality which is an allowable use of ESSER II funds.
