the duel fuel . **The Committee agreed to take the $300 ,000 savings and investigate a block building** 6 . Delete 1 Overhead coiling door. Bob explained the custodial staff recommended this, 3 doors are too many. Paul said rollup doors require a lot of maintenance. 99% of the traffic is foot traffic. He suggested using 1 roll up and one 7x7 door. Ed said it depends on how you discipline your staff, they may use the roll up anyway. Paul also suggested eliminating the loading dock. He spoke with staff at his buildings and they agree. He suggested it be replaced with a hydraulic sizzor lift. This is not just to cut money, it functions much better. Bob said he won't get argument from them. They agreed to take $2 ,000 from #6 . 7 . Because the building is now block , this savings is now less. Agreed to take $3, 500. $442 ,000 in savings so far . $1 , 162 , 397 left to eliminate. All figures include profit and overhead . Committee went through the list again . 3 . Blinds. Merry Sue said it is difficult to darken a room to show anything on TV monitors without blinds . Committee agreed to take 1 /2 for $15 ,000 savings. 13. Entrance Door. Ed said they can do just as good a job with hollow metal but it will be a maintenance problem for sure. Committee agreed not to take it. 14. Alternate Ed operable wall . Paul said cuts have been made in the rest of the school this program for 15 students should sacrifice also. This program has 2 bathrooms at $10 , 000 each and 2 operable walls at $20,000, cuts can be made without eliminating the program. The Committee agreed to cut one bathroom and 1 operable wall for a $30 , 000 savings. 25a. Air conditioning in the remaining building.
