District Wide Commentaries

Toilet Facilities Most facilities do not meet code for fixture count Lack of ADA facilities

Parking Parking is limited at most sites Many facilities do not have paved parking Many facilities are in need of ADA parking and

paths


ADA Majority of facilities do not have ADA access to the

buildings Majority of facilities do not have ADA access of

specific areas (such as stages, upper floors, basements)

Parking, access and toilets are also a concern Door hardware is not accessible

Windows Mostly Single pane and not energy efficient


Electrical Lighting Upgrades Panelboard Replacements Technology Upgrades

Mechanical/Plumbing Pipes need replacement Lack of Energy Efficient Boilers and/or systems Ventilation is poor
