Holcomb School District Existing Conditions
Originally constructed in 1955, with
various additions throughout the
years, many building systems are
outdated and in need of major
renovations.
5
Existing Conditions- Auditorium
• Dated conditions • Torn seating• Stage needs upgrading• Lighting and AV Systems
need updating • HVAC system past useful life• Poor acoustics and noisy
HVAC systems
6
Auditorium Interior Issues
Seats in poor condition
Poor lighting and stage curtain
Asbestos floor tile and worn out carpeting
7
Auditorium HVAC Issues
Poor Design of the HVAC ductwork creates noisy and uncomfortable conditions. Ductwork will be re-designed to provide better air distribution and quieter operation. New acoustical ceiling will be installed.
8
• Moisture causing significant damage to brickwork
• Tuckpointing, brick replacement, and water sealing is needed
• Roof flashing needs to be replaced to stop water damage
• Cracks need to be addressed
Existing Conditions- Brickwork
9
Auditorium-Brick Work Issues
Squirrels are getting into the building and creating additional issues
10
Auditorium-Brickwork Issues
Rear wall is separating due to settlingand causing major cracking and structural issues
Steel I -beam is supported by block masonry that is cracking.
11
Auditorium Brickwork Issues
Major crack developing on exterior of facility
12
Auditorium Brickwork
Major rework and replacement of brick is required after stabilization
13
Brickwork and Window Issues
Moisture issues causing brick to crack and break off from freezing and thawing
Crack forming on corner of facility
Windows in poor condition and not thermally efficient
14
Parking Lot/Sidewalks• Patching• Potholes• Cracking• Deteriorated
asphalt• Water drainage
issues
Existing ConditionsParking Lot/Sidewalks
16
Existing Conditions - Sidewalks
Sidewalks near auditorium are lower than the pavement and flood when it rains.
ADA accessibility issues and cracking should be repaired.
17
Existing Conditions - HVAC
Gym Cooling system is in need of replacement.
Ductwork is not sufficient for proper air circulation.
18
Existing conditions - HVAC
Outdated and inefficient HVAC equipment throughout the campus should be replaced with high efficiency equipment.
19
Existing conditions - Gym Lighting
• Gym lighting is inefficient and wastes energy.
• Fixtures produce poor lighting levels
20
Several single pane window systems are inefficient.
Exterior entrance doors inefficient and outdated.

Bond Issue
Money can be raised WITHOUT raising the tax levy.
Project improvements will reduce Districts operating cost for energy and repair cost.
Projected savings over 20 years for this phase:Energy savings over $280,000Operational savings over $1,000,000
Good management of finances by the Board of Education has made this possible.

April Election Impact
Scenario 1 – Bond Issue Passes:
This would allow for extensive renovation of the Holcomb School District Campus. Renovations to include the upgrade of auditorium, structural and brickwork repair, replacement of windows, doors, lighting, HVAC systems, and roof/drainage repairs. The results of the project will lower the operations and maintenance cost for the District and provide a high quality learning environment for the students.
Funds would also continue to be available to maintain these improvements and meet the educational needs of the district.

April Election Impact
Scenario 2 – Bond Issue Fails:
Excessive energy bills and maintenance costs would continue to escalate on equipment that is well past its life expectancy. Buildings will continue to deteriorate and structural issues will not be rectified. Poor indoor air quality in the classroom would impact the educational needs of the students. Eventually a tax increase would be required to do major repairs and construction.
