What actions have been taken to date?
The final design is being determined, an architect has been hired, site preparation bids have been obtained and the land has been surveyed. In addition, four houses on the proposed site have been purchased or acquired. The Foundation Board approved the architectural plans at the March 2008 meeting and directed the facilities committee to proceed with final design, zoning and permitting, solicitation of contractor bids, site preparation and construction. In addition, the facilities committee will maintain dialogue and collaboration with area property owners on design considerations of mutual interest and has appointed an area property owner as an ex-officio member of the committee.
