North Tonawanda City School District
Capital Improvement Project

• Repairs, Maintenance, and updates to Facilities and Systems
• Site improvements to address additional parking, separation of students, buses and passenger car circulation
• Addition to NTMS of ten additional instructional classrooms

---

The Capital Facilities Plan has identified approximately $62 million in improvements which will be needed for the District's facilities. Since the Scope of Work is substantial and the costs significant it was necessary to consider dealing with this issue in phases. In an effort to address this need in a fiscally responsible manner, it was recommended by the Capital Project Committee (consisting of school and community representatives) to proceed with the first phase by doing as much work as possible with a ZERO dollar tax impact. It was determined by the District's fiscal advisors, Capital Markets Advisor, LLC, that the District could do a $48 Million Capital Project at NO COST to the taxpayers. Therefore, Phase I of a multi-year plan proposes a capital project totaling $48 million in upgrades to the instructional buildings. Phase 2 will address work that has been deferred.

The proposed work in Phase 1 includes:

• HVAC Upgrades: replacement of various HVAC equipment including air handling/ventilation units, select boilers, and digital control systems, to provide proper levels of heating and ventilation and improve energy efficiency.
• Lighting and Electrical Upgrades: renovations to electrical services to buildings; replacement of select lighting and sensors to improve energy efficiency
• Plumbing System Upgrades: repair or replacement or pumps, piping, and fixtures in most buildings.
• Site Safety Improvements: repairs and/or replacements to existing paving, curbs and sidewalks at most of the District's buildings; enhanced or expanded paving to allow for better separation of bus/vehicle/pedestrian traffic
• Improved Security: better control of access to buildings with dedicated intercom and surveillance camera systems
• Emergency System Upgrades: replacement of five emergency generators; repair or replacement of various emergency and exit lighting systems
• Interior Finish Upgrades: replacement of floors, ceilings, and wall finishes in most instructional facilities
• Addition to NTMS: construct a ten-classroom addition to NTMS which can be paid for by Orleans-Niagara BOCES under a lease agreement and used for special needs students.
• Improved Accessibility: renovations to all facilities to provide better access to buildings, accessible toilet facilities, assisted listening systems, and addition of one elevator
• Exterior Repairs:masonry repairs; window repairs and replacements; repair or replacement of six roofs
• Expanding Technology:providing access to the latest in computer technology for staff and students, including expanded power and data infrastructure, ceiling-mounted projectors and interactive whiteboards in all classrooms
• Various other improvements:necessary due to the age and condition of the buildings
