Q2 2026 Project Update

Develop Interior and Exterior Signage

June

The project has undergone close-out for the exterior portion of the scope of work, having achieved substantial completion in late April. Minor items are being addressed. Once resolved, a Notice of Completion is expected to be presented to the Board of Trustees on June 23 for its consideration. With its recent approval, the District will submit the Notice of Completion to the Orange County Clerk-Recorder, triggering the 30-day count for release of retention for this portion of the project.

On May 26, Architect of Record, Westberg+White, kicked off Building User Group (BUG) meetings in coordination with the Campus Project Team. At the initial meeting, the scope of work was reviewed and adjusted to best meet campus needs. The scope of work includes the addition of building and floor directories at the entrances, lobbies, and corridors with wayfinding signage and artwork. Based on the discussion, the addition of a pony wall is planned along with other changes requested by the BUG. A Board Agenda Item is anticipated to be presented to the Board of Trustees in July to KYA Group for approximately $753.6K for the implementation of the finalized interior scope of work prior to proceeding with fabrication and installation.
