Board begins exploring building consolidation and multi-year capital plans amid budget forecast
Summary
Superintendent Brian Rentsch told the board that the district must consider options to save money — including potential building consolidation — and asked administrators to produce 1-, 3-, 5-, and 7-year capital plans for each building in light of the financial forecast.
Superintendent Brian Rentsch opened a board discussion Feb. 9 about the district’s financial forecast and capital plan, saying the district must consider options to reduce costs that could include consolidation of buildings or other capital changes. Rentsch asked administrators to develop multiple planning scenarios (Plan B, C, and 1-, 3-, 5-, and 7-year capital plans) for each building to inform board decisions.
Board members Mrs. Host, Ms. Campbell and Mrs. Grandison expressed agreement that options are needed. The minutes indicate the board will await specific proposals and options from administration; no final decision or timeline for a building closure was taken at this meeting.
