Major building and facility repair and replacement" and "major maintenance" mean the repair, replacement or upgrade of complete or major portions of any component, equipment or system of a property at irregular intervals that is required to continue the use of the property at its designed capacity for its designed intended use and is typically accomplished by contractors due to the personnel demand to accomplish the work in a timely manner, the level of sophistication of the work or the need for warranted work.

1. Spreadsheet is used to track upcoming projects that have been identified and for life cycle items that have been identified through the School Construction Departments Facility Condition Assessment for review for consideration of replacement.

2. In June the Chief Operations Officer and Maintenance Manager tours each facility with the building administrator to review the facilities assessment, discuss maintenance issues and requirements that may qualify for Major Maintenance.  These are then prioritized per school.

3. Requests from buildings are then prioritized by the Chief Operations Officer, Maintenance Manager and ACSD1 Civil Engineer to rack and stack the projects for the district.

4. Scheduled projects are then submitted int the annual budget based on using 75% of the funds allocated by the legislature for Albany County School District 1.

5. Approximately 25% of funds are set aside for emergencies. These funds can be rolled over to the following year for consideration for projects if not used.

ACSD#1 Central Office is now open at 2931 Standards Place. Central Administration, Maintenance & Operations, and Transportation have transitioned to the new facility.

The property will ultimately bring several District operations together at one centralized location, including:

• Central Administration — Now Open

• Maintenance & Operations — Now Open

• Transportation — Now Open

• Central Kitchen — Future Move

• Technology — Future Move

The remaining departments will transition to the new facility as preparations are completed. Additional updates will be shared as those moves are finalized.

Bringing these departments together will provide more functional space for District operations, create opportunities for collaboration and efficiency, and reduce the need to maintain operations across multiple properties.

The ACSD#1 Teaching & Learning Center is officially open at 1721 Park Avenue!

The former Beitel Elementary building has been repurposed as the Teaching & Learning Center, providing dedicated space for the District’s:

• Special Education Department

• Curriculum Department

• Professional Development Department

• Project Transition

Bringing these teams together in one location creates opportunities for collaboration and provides dedicated space for staff who work every day to support our students, teachers, and schools.

The purchase of the Standards Place property is expected to result in approximately $2 million in cost savings by reducing the need for several renovation projects previously planned at Beitel Elementary. The facility also provides opportunities to better address the long-term space and operational needs of Transportation, Maintenance & Operations, Central Kitchen, Technology, and other District support services.
