District kicks off facilities master plan, outlines condition assessment and funding routes
Summary
The board heard Renew Clark’s kickoff presentation on the district’s facilities master plan process — including condition assessments, visioning, implementation planning, and funding options such as Proposition 2 matching grants and local bonds.
The board on March 4 received a presentation from Renew Clark (architect Steve Prince and senior planner Kristen Rose) on the district’s facilities master plan process. The consultant described a phased approach — data collection, condition assessment, visioning, project scoping, cost estimating, and an implementation plan tied to local and state funding sources such as developer fees, general‑obligation bonds, and new Proposition 2 matching grants.
Steve Prince said the team is about halfway through site condition assessments and expects to complete facility condition estimates by mid‑March. "The facility condition assessment collects a lot of data," the presenter said, and the team will convert that information into a facility condition index and a dashboard to help the district prioritize projects. Board members asked about energy standards, DSA/permitting, and whether the master plan requires community engagement; Renew Clark described a layered engagement strategy including steering committees, visioning workshops, surveys, and community forums.
Staff emphasized the master plan is a planning tool, not a commitment to a bond; identifying priorities and funding sources would come later. The contractor noted that Proposition 2 (recently passed) will require a plan as part of state matching‑grant applications, and that having an adopted master plan positions the district to pursue multiple funding streams.
