Board directs building committee to study options for district administrative office
Summary
The RSU 22 board unanimously approved a motion directing the building committee to evaluate options for a district administrative office and report back with recommendations; members discussed timing for any public vote and said committee will develop schedule and cost estimates.
The RSU 22 board voted unanimously to send the question of a new district administrative office to the building committee for study and recommendation.
Board member Will moved that the board "direct the RSU22 building committee to weigh possible options for the district administrative office and report back to the board their findings with a recommended approach on how to proceed." The motion was seconded and the chair called for discussion. No additional amendments were made and the motion passed unanimously.
During discussion members asked whether previous engineering plans and quotes remain available; staff said the district retains earlier materials though costs would likely differ today. Board members also debated timing for a potential public referendum if the committee recommends a question for voters, and suggested the committee decide whether an off-cycle or standard-election timing is advisable.
The vote gives the building committee direction to investigate sites, costs and timelines and return with a recommendation. The board did not yet set a public timeline; committee meetings will be scheduled in the coming weeks and the committee will include facilities staff and community members for further evaluation.
