Committee reviews robotics practice‑field plan, will seek architect and explore T‑Mobile grant use

Oct 9, 2026

The committee reviewed a half‑field robotics practice building plan (modular and metal‑building options), discussed multipurpose design and code issues, and agreed to ask an architect for scoped consulting and to consider tapping an existing T‑Mobile grant for initial work.

The full story

Chris (presenter) shared a packet (emailed to the committee) with plans for a roughly 2,000–2,500 square‑foot robotics practice building, including a 0.5‑field layout, structural loading notes and several cost estimates. He said he "created a 0.5 size field" layout and had gathered online estimators and example quotes to inform a ballpark budget. Committee members focused on whether to attach a modular building to the existing structure (which may ease some code requirements) or to site a freestanding metal building (which triggers full new‑building code and perimeter requirements).
