Board weighs former bowling alley as possible daycare site; asks staff for cost estimates
Summary
Superintendent Powell told the board HCCDC lacks expansion room at its current Douglas Telfer Building location and noted the Hillsboro bowling alley is listed for sale; trustees authorized staff to gather cost estimates to evaluate the property as a potential daycare site.
Superintendent Powell reported that HCCDC is currently located in the basement of the Douglas Telfer Building, which is owned by Hillsboro Health, and that the space does not allow for expansion. He said the Hillsboro bowling alley was recently listed for sale and asked whether the board would be interested in exploring it as a daycare site.
Board members discussed alternatives, including moving the daycare to Coffeen Early Childhood Center, but noted that relocation could increase operating expenses and that HCCDC had been self-sustaining. The board did not vote on the property; minutes record that members were open to obtaining estimates on costs to bring the bowling-alley property up to code.
