B. Building Systems: 1) Remove existing furnace, fan, and ductwork in the Basement. 2) Replace the existing forced air heating and ventilating system with a new variable refrigerant flow system. 3) Provide a central fresh air system to service all units. 4) Replace partial existing fire sprinkler system with new fully automatic fire sprinkler system throughout. 5) Provide new fire alarm system. 6) Provide additional power receptacles to most rooms. 7) Provide new lighting system in lay-in ceilings except in classrooms and Meeting Room. C. Architectural: 1) Paint interior. 2) Replace all existing flooring. 3) Refinish, patch, and clean the historic Meeting Room to mimic the original architectural style (not a historically accurate restoration). 4) Adjust room layouts.
