Michael J. Castori (North Sacramento School District) 2004-2005
Facilities
The school appears to have pressing facilities issues. Specific areas of the school facility involve severe dry rot of structural beams and doorframes. Of particular concern is the two to three inch gap at the base of a structural 4 x 8 inch vertical beam in the doorway of the boys’ bathroom. The beam appears to be rotted at the base and appears to provide no bearing wall support.
The nature of the structural concern requires evaluation by a qualified structural engineer to assure that these specific facilities are suitable for occupancy. It is our opinion that the degree of structural damage noted above presents an emergency facilities need pursuant to Education Code Section 17592.72(c)(1)(H).
