Kanz' Subject: RE: Conduit leaking still Dallas, School finished yesterday for the students. The teacherís contract runs through today. After that, minimal staff will be in the building. George Volk is the building contact. He will be who you will need to coordinate with. I have added him on this e-mail. Georgeís cell is 631-3437, but to keep Will, George, and myself in the loop, I would request scheduling and updates get put in e-mails so we all have the same communication. Will Hollander is the Assistant Principle and takes care of facility concerns. Dave Gurwell is my Assistant Director and also needs to be in the loop in case something he has in the works at City needs addressed. You can contact George to find out what the plans are and when works best for him. I would like to have a pre-repair meeting to get a better understanding of Priceís approach. This would involve George Volk and myself. Thanks, Paul From: Dallas Norman [mailto:dnorman@mccomaslacina.com] Sent: Friday, June 06, 2008 7:31 AM To: Paul Schultz Cc: Mike Hahn Subject: RE: Conduit leaking still Paul, I called and left a messafe for you a couple of weeks ago. Basically Price Electric wanted to do it when School got out for the summer. I assume that school will be out shortly if it is not already. Please let me know when school will be out and I will schedule Price to come in and do the work.

As I indicated before, this is a safety concern with water coming in either from the inside or around the conduits feeding the new addition. Please give me a date that this will be repaired by tomorrow at the end of business day. It has been agreed this was a problem caused by the construction addition of 2004 ñ 2005. Numerous requests from the district and the design professional have yielded no results. We have cleaned up after several rains at our own expense in conditions that may or may not be safe to work in. Please let me know your intensions by the end of day tomorrow so the district can decide how to proceed. Please use e-mail or in writing. George, Dallas indicated MLC is not responsible to coat the roof which seems to be in discrepancy to the attached ìCity High additionî e-mail correspondence. Paul Schultz Director of Physical Plant From: Paul Schultz Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2008 5:47 PM To: dnorman@mccomaslacina.com Cc: George Volk; 'George F. Kanz'; Dave Gurwell; Jeff Barnes Subject: Conduit leaking still Dallas, The conduit is still leaking, though with the spray foam the electrician used, although not as bad. The type of repair made will allow water to sit in the conduit indefinitely. The wiring in the conduit is not rated to be under water to my knowledge. It will also shorten the life of the conduit. This situation that has existed for three years is now being questioned as a safety issue with water running out of a live conduit and custodianís vacuuming it up. I am requesting the repair be made from the outside as you indicated if this repair did not fix it. Please let me know how you would like to proceed. Thanks, Paul
