South Whidbey School District officials discussed a recap and update of its maintenance and operations levy fund usage for the 2013-14 school year at a workshop last week.

Brian Miller, facilities supervisor for the South Whidbey School District, updated board members and school district staff on a number of projects and provided a recap of the levy spending for 2013-14.

Both the maintenance/operations and capital/technology levies were approved in February 2013. The maintenance and operations levy was a renewal, remaining at $3.9 million annually.

Some of the larger completed projects included the installation of new carpet in nine elementary school classrooms ($45,391); installation of Aiphone entrance security at the high school ($8,600); resurfacing of the high school track ($328,887); fixing the drainage system of the high school football field ($68,160); and installation of perimeter fencing at the middle school ($22,524).

Some projects, including replacement of the carpet in nine middle school classrooms and repairs to the retention pond in the garden were postponed due to “cash flow concerns.”

Other projects such as the repair of the high school field ($8,895), repair of the elementary school field ($5,255) and replacement of desks and chairs at the high school ($1,009) were added to the original list and have already been completed.

The total amount spent in the 2013-14 school year was $675,762.
