In 2014, funding was approved by Sonoma County voters for the Santa Rosa Junior College District to utilize Measure H tax bonds for $410 million in upgrades and renovations to SRJC campus buildings over the next decade. Included in the funding was $30 million for the Burbank Auditorium to be completely renovated. The auditorium itself was 77 years-old and in need of significant repair to enhance the space including improving vantage points for the audience and implement ADA upgrades throughout the facility. As a local historical building, the exterior of the building was to remain intact through the construction process.
Starting in 2012, the San Mateo Union High School District (SMUHSD) contracted for renovations at six campuses including refreshing eight theaters. PCD was successful in being awarded some of the projects as a part of the capital construction contracts.
When PCD completes a theater or sound reinforcement project that will be used with the expectation of very high-quality frequency response, outstanding coverage pattern and making sure that every person in the audience can hear the performance and not the reflections of the room’s acoustics as best as can be done with the equipment and the treatment in the room. To do this, PCD employs the software of Rational Acoustics SMAART.
