Board reviews schematic to move carline off Link Road, expand parking and playgrounds
Summary
Corgan Architects presented schematic designs to reconfigure drives and connect parking between Navarro Annex, Elementary and Intermediate campuses, increasing parking and expanding playgrounds; trustees advanced design approval as part of consent items.
Navarro ISD trustees heard a schematic design from Corgan Architects to reconfigure driveways and connect parking between Navarro Annex, Elementary and Intermediate campuses, with the explicit goal of moving vehicle queuing off Link Road and improving arrival/dismissal flow.
The presentation details include increasing Intermediate parking from 225 to 250 spaces and Elementary parking from 83 to 170 spaces, doubling the intermediate playground square footage, installing age-appropriate equipment at the elementary campus to support an Early Childhood Center, and using bonded rubber and turf surfaces with structured fencing for accessibility and lower maintenance.
Board members discussed the design development and the recommendation came forward as part of the consent agenda. Trustees approved the consent agenda (excluding an item pulled for separate consideration) and later separately approved the schematic design for the Drives and Parking Project.
District staff said removing perpendicular covered walkways will allow queuing from the Annex through the Intermediate to reduce Link Road congestion and provide flexible drop-off/pick-up patterns across campuses.
