FY 2024 Educational Facilities Master Plan

08 Northwestern Elementary Facility Needs 8.04.379 Addition - Studies / Planning Currently Northwestern has a cafetorium which serves as its cafeteria, gymnasium and auditorium. As student population continues to increase it's become more of a challenge to schedule the multiple needs that this shared assembly space requires. The school is in need of a separate Gymnasium to serve students physical education needs and help assist with the over-scheduling of the existing cafetorium. Project Description Conduct a feasibility study to investigate the options for a separate Gymnasium with the necessary support space applicable to this programmatic need. Total cost is an estimate only and must be adjusted to the project based on the feasibility study. Project Notes Consider a single design for NWE & WPS. 8.03.343 Site - Paving / Parking Lots Parking has become a safety/capacity issue at this school. A study is needed to develop solutions to address the crowded conditions. Project Description This project will provide funds to study the problem, develop alternative solutions and implement much needed improvements (consider using adjacent property). Project will also address any current paving issues, as well as associated Storm Water Management and Forestation requirements. 8.13.554 Systemic Renovation - Lighting Systems Lighting systems and ceilings have passed their useful life. Upgrades are needed in order to provide adequate lighting levels and additional operational efficiencies.
