School repairs: the list

You can find the entirety of the "who is getting what fixed" list starting on page 41 of the Finance and Operations agenda from this afternoon (the recommendations were approved at subcommittee; they'll go to the full committee next Thursday). A few overview notes:

• every secondary school in the city, with the exceptions of North (being replaced; new school opens fall 2011), Tech (new school), and Forest Grove (redone recently) are on the list and having extensive work done
• Nelson Place is not on the list, as it is now the #1 school on our "replace" list
• there are two pots of money: the city capital money, over which we have disgression, and ESCO money, which is being directed according to the energy survey conducted by Honeywell. Thus there are some replacements being done in additional schools.
• Both Union Hill and Chandler Elementary have had work done this summer, ahead of the opening next week

The lists, by quadrant, are:

Burncoat: Burncoat High, Burncoat Middle, Clark Street, Lincoln Street, Thorndyke Road, Worcester Arts Magnet

Doherty: Doherty High, Chandler Elementary, Chandler Magnet, Flagg Street, Midland Street, Tatnuck Magnet, West Tatnuck

North: Worcester East Middle, Grafton Street, Lake View, Rice Square, Union Hill

South: South High, Sullivan Middle, Columbus Park, Goddard School, Heard Street, UPCS

If you go through the pages following, you can find exactly what the proposed expenditures are for each school. The request by Mr. Monfredo that committees for "curb appeal" be put together was moved into a motion that any site-based decisions that need to be made be put through the principal and site council (with a committee created if needed and at their discretion).
