INITIAL/POTENTIAL CAPITAL PLANNING OPTIONS

FOR

DISCUSSION

Please Note: ��- Estimates and costs provided in this document are preliminary rough estimates only and will be further refined as the scope of work narrows and more information becomes available.��- Current construction market conditions do not align with RIDE funding formulas (cost/SF) - such that the funding provided may not be sufficient to build the size of building desired and/or level of improvements.��- “Renovations” in this discussion include both deferred maintenance and educational adequacy components. It is important to understand that there is flexibility in the cost of renovations – renovation costs can be increased or reduced from the costs and cost ranges presented here. ��

�NEXT STEPS�

• Understanding that there is flexibility in the “renovation” numbers….
• Narrow down options to those that appear to present reasonable and do-able facility and educational solutions, and….
• Narrow down options to those that may likely be supported by the majority of the community, and….
• Narrow down options to those that will likely be financially feasible, both in terms of bonding and in terms of overall individual home owner tax burden.

​

• StudioJAED will then further define and refine the options chosen, including costs, for further discussion and vetting with the School Building Committee and Community.
