Board approves moving Little Falcons Preschool to McDowell Mountain Elementary with cost guardrails
Summary
Trustees approved relocating Little Falcons Preschool to McDowell Mountain Elementary; staff estimated the project ‘should not exceed $250,000’ but noted some line items (playground, fencing) and final funding depend on pending land-sale proceeds and architect input.
The Fountain Hills Unified School District board voted to relocate Little Falcons Preschool to the McDowell Mountain Elementary School site, contingent on further project scoping and budget review.
During discussion, Speaker 4 said the committee’s high-end estimate was not to exceed $250,000 and that some items remained unresolved, including playground decisions and potential fencing cost savings (SEG 1069–1079; SEG 1080–1088). The architect is expected to provide additional details; staff said the district would only proceed if the project was financially responsible and would consider timing relative to an anticipated land sale (SEG 1108–1113). Speaker 2 moved to approve the relocation (SEG 1130–1132); Speaker 5 seconded (SEG 1134) and the motion passed by voice vote (SEG 1136–1139).
