Summary

Consultants presented four reconfiguration scenarios costing roughly $8M to $50M; presenters translated those totals into household tax impacts (e.g., $50M ≈ $42/month for a $150,000 home).

Presenter walked the committee through four distinct reconfiguration scenarios with headline cost estimates: updating all four buildings (~$8,000,000); consolidating to three buildings (~$11,000,000); a two-building model estimated at $20–24 million; and a single-campus K–12 option at about $50,000,000.

To make the numbers tangible for voters, the presenters translated each scenario into monthly tax impacts for a representative $150,000 home: the $50,000,000 option came to about $42 per month, a $30,000,000 project to roughly $20 per month, $18,000,000 to about $10 per month, and the $11,000,000 three-building scenario to about $3 per month. The committee discussed how those figures align with live polling of attendees who clustered around $20/month support.
