Project Approval Status (Local Referendum)

Thank You!

The additional funding for the project was approved by an overwhelming majority

Project Approval Status (SED)

• Renovation Portion

– Submitted to SED, traditional review and approval process

• Initial Engineering review complete, currently responding to their comments

• Initial Architectural Review (Face-to Face), comments received and responses in progress

• Current expectation of final approval in next 4-6 weeks

• Roofing Portion

– Submitted to SED for Third Party Review last week

• Expecting approx. 45 day review period

• Currently exploring bid strategies to include a placeholder should it be necessary

Next Steps

• Bid Preparations

– “Final” review sessions to verify documents are complete (Entire project team comes together)

– Finalize bid strategies and selection of alternates for bid protection and potential additional items

– Final run at Cost Estimates

• Community and Staff Engagement

– Today’s Phasing conversation

– Faculty “Relocation” Committee – Kick off 1/14

– Community Forum – 1/16

Project Phasing

• Initial phasing plan was based upon the completed Smith Rd Renovations

– Multiple Phases

– 16 month duration

– Multiple Shifts

– Swing Space

• Since the beginning, this has been the assumption for Bear Road’s Project

• Current Market conditions have lead us to question these assumptions

What’s Changed

• High Volume of work on the market, several area schools either out to bid or in queue with us

• Statewide lack of construction labor resources, evidenced by our own current roofing projects

• Increased cost of raw materials

• Revisit original phasing plan to align with current market conditions

• Explore alternatives to minimize impacts to student learning and ensure safety

Recommendation

Updated Multi-Phase Plan (4 Phases)

• 32-36 Month Duration

• Relocation likely to impact 3 cohorts, 1 each school year, for 3 school years

• Multiple moves of students and faculty remaining on location

– Possibility of moves during school year to maintain schedules

• Limited Space, conflicts with parking and staging of construction materials

• Maintaining separation of education and construction is complex

• More likely to strain budget and increased potential for cost overruns

Updated Multi-Phase Plan (4 Phases)

Alternative Phasing Plan (2 Phases)

• 24-27 month duration

• Relocation likely to impact 3 cohorts, 2 each school year, for 2 years

• No expectation for students and faculty remaining on location to be displaced in any school year

• Ample Space, no expected conflicts with parking and staging of construction materials

• Maintaining separation of education and construction is less complex

• More likely to be under budget and significantly less potential for cost overruns

Alternative Phasing Plan (2 Phases)

Looking Ahead

• Community and Staff Engagement does not end when the construction begins

– Staff “Relocation” Committee will be actively engaged for the duration of the project

– Community Forums will continue as required to collect input and to share critical information

– Periodic Updates – Website, letters home, etc.

– Safety Briefings and Project Orientation for Students and Faculty, …
