Information sessions
The information sessions about the improvement program and referendum already began last week and the first few sessions were a success. They will continue to be held at every school in the district to present information and allow residents and families to ask questions about the program. The sessions will end by 27 March.
The information meetings at each of the schools aim to get feedback so the district can craft the best possible proposal. So if you have ideas or want to interact with opinions and learn, these meetings are a great opportunity.
What are the ESIP Project & Referendum
The proposed referendum and ESIP projects are the result of a districtwide community needs survey that was commissioned in 2013, the district said in a news release on the meetings. Among the issues cited was a need for significant facilities upgrades; that prompted a full facilities assessment, officials said.
The assessment of the 18 schools and five outbuildings resulted in an estimate of $160 million worth of necessary upgrades and improvements, the district said.
The ESIP capital improvement project, designed by the team of Maser Consulting, DCO Energy and CDI, will allow the district to make upgrades worth $17.8 million that are paid for through the energy savings program.
The district is eager that a fall 2018 bond referendum will help support the remainder of priority projects.
Additionally, to focusing on the needs of each individual school when it hosts its meeting, the school needs it is connected to will be debated as well.
