- One of the critical needs for BHS was to repair & replace pavement where needed. Our team has determined that due to the additional work we were able to complete in the last bond that we have opportunities to focus on other critical needs here as the parking lot was replaced at the completion of the last project at this school. We are looking at expanding the extent of field improvements, assessing the roof for possible replacement and improving more of the building envelope.
- Schematic Design (SD) documents are anticipated on July 28th.
- Meetings with staff to review design will be scheduled upon staff’s return.
- Design Documents (DD) are scheduled to be issued mid-September with final Construction Documents (CD) scheduled to deliver to BVSD at the end of October.

Construction activity is in full swing on Recht Field and the main access bridge to the Recht Field complex! The old synthetic turf, along with the old infill, have been removed and repairs and improvements have been completed on the base of the field. The new base, turf, and infill have been installed, as well as new BVSD logos. The new infill material, which is installed at the base of the “grass” tufts to help them stand up, is made of crushed olive pits. This 100% natural, sustainable material will be used for all the turf replacement projects planned through the Bond program.
The old deck timbers have been removed from the access bridge over Boulder Creek. The new ones have been fabricated, treated and will be installed this month, following the replacement of the steel timber supports.
The entire complex is scheduled to be completed and reopened to the community by early August. Note: The entire Recht Field complex and the access bridge will be closed to the public, including on the weekends, until the project is complete.

The work to replace the turf at Recht Field and refurbish the main access bridge to the Recht Field complex has officially begun! These two projects are part of a larger scope of work that is planned for Boulder High School as a part of the 2022 Bond Project approved by voters in November 2022. This work is occurring now because of the deteriorated condition of both the bridge and the turf.
