Summary

Wold Architects reviewed the district facility assessment at the Dec. 16 meeting; the presentation—posted on the district website—noted that Leigh School's higher estimate reflects ADA compliance needs and a large courtyard.

Mr. Sellers introduced Mike Eichhorn of Wold Architects, who reviewed the district's Facility Assessment and noted differences in cost estimates between schools.

"The difference is due to the ADA compliance requirements and the large courtyard at Leigh, which significantly increase costs," Eichhorn told the board during the presentation. The presentation and the facility-assessment materials are available on the district website, the minutes say.

Board members asked follow-up questions about particular ceilings and project scopes (the minutes note discussion about a ceiling in the 5th/6th-grade hallway at Giles) and raised funding questions. The Board requested an update on project funding and the hallway-pass pilot at a future (April) board meeting.
