Recent additions to savings
opportunities include: more
training on the energy
management systems, and
a fuel saving catalyst for
the boilers at the high
school. We hope to lower
our energy consumption
even further from last years
reductions.

NASHOBA FACILITIES
The facilities budget is unique in that most of the
numbers are typically arrived at using hard data
such as electrical usage, gallons of fuel, and rolls
of paper towels.
Information on line items such as contracted
vendors and maintenance projects was gathered
using historical and estimated costs.
Meetings with principals and administrators were
conducted as part of the budget process.
Projects were identified and prioritized using
the numbers and codes that were developed by
the Superintendent.

FACILITIES DEPARTMENT BUDGET DETAIL
Staffing
The Facilities Department has two
technicians to handle over 600,000 sf of
building. An additional technician would
allow us to complete work orders faster,
save money through better preventive
maintenance, and further reduce
dependence on outside vendors.
I estimate we can save about $20,000
in contracted maintenance and
additional dollars by focusing more
effort on energy reductions and PM
work. The District is growing and a
third team member is a necessary
step in achieving our goals.

The Facilities Department has been successful
in cutting energy costs and staying on top of
maintenance work. It is our goal to be on the
cutting edge of facilities management. We will
continue our work to keep the buildings well
maintained, safe, and energy efficient.
