July 8, 2018 -Logan Fontenelle Middle School
Work will begin later this Fall to replace the bleachers in the main gym at Logan Fontenelle with bleacher installation being completed by Heartland Seating Company. The new seating will replace the existing wood bleachers with new retractable contoured plastic bench seats. The installation schedule of the new bleachers is being coordinated with the school administration and will occur late Fall of 2018.
Also occurring at Logan Fontenelle will be the replacement of the existing chiller system serving the main cooling system for the building. The existing chiller unit was tentatively scheduled for replacement in roughly 2020, but due to 2 of the 3 compressor units failing in the chiller, the District has expedited the replacement of the chiller rather than expending money for repairs that will be wasted when the unit is replaced. The District will be looking at means and methods of providing additional cooling by utilizing a rented portable chiller unit this summer/fall until a new chiller unit can be purchased and installed.
