  4. General Maintenance Repairs: • Roof Leaks • Plumbing Repairs • Heating Plant Repairs • Masonry Disintegration • Electrical Repairs • Exterior Site Maintenance (e.g.. Fencing, drainage etc.) • 2000 repairs addressed over the past 4 years

  5. Condition of Major Building Components • The Ministry of Education conducted a Building Condition Survey of TDSB Schools in 2003 • Investigation confirms the need to spend substantial funding immediately

  6. Example of regular maintenance requirements

  7. Facility Services prioritizes emergency work to ensure the safety of students and staff. Examples of Precast Concrete Deterioration

  8. Two Restorative options were reviewed: • . Traditional Restoration b. Application of Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRPs), as a temporary solution.

  10. This temporary solution: • Restored Structural integrity of precast elements. • Provided substantial cost savings. • Avoided program disruption. • Assured the safety of students and staff.

  11. Critical Maintenance Program: Over the next five years more than $6M will be needed to ensure that: • Students and staff are kept safe • Essential services to the building are maintained • The general condition of the school in 2008 is not significantly worse than in 2003

  12. Approximately $700M backlog to date exists for all TDSB facilities. • The Board only receives $40M annually from the Ministry of Education to address all renewal needs. • Severe competition for funding will limit amount allocated to NTCI. • School will be in worse condition in 5 years than at present.

  13. Barrier Free Accessibility • Currently the school is not wheelchair accessible. • No plans to upgrade the accessibility under the status quo • Cost to upgrade barrier free would exceed $500,000

  14. Change in level Cafeteria Level/ 2nd Flr. Change in level Auditorium Level/ 1stFlr. North Entrance 1

  15. Pros: • Students can remain in existing accommodation during construction.

  16. Cons: • Continuous maintenance required. • Barrier Free Access remains non-existent • Poor working and learning environment for students and staff. • Lack of students pride for their facility. • Deterioration encourages vandalism. • Poor building condition will result in re-evaluation of closure within 5-years. • Potential closure of the building would result in redirection of the student body.

  17. Inadequate Provincial funds will limit renewal work at North Toronto Collegiate Institute.
