Getting a new building ready to open is both exciting and taxing. The preparation begins with the hiring of new employees; purchasing of new equipment; distributing trash and recycling receptacles; and creating employee custodial cleaning workloads/routes. All new campus buildings are funded at a higher maintenance rate to keep them in as built condition. The cleaning standards are higher for new buildings. All of this activity is usually completed while having limited building access. When construction is completed and the new building is turned over to the Physical Plant; we as a department make sure the building shines; making every attempt to make the new occupants feel welcome.
