Current space: Over-crowded & decentralized driving inefficiencies

– 450 employees averaging 154 assignable sf per FTE; below std

– With projected consolidation/growth to district-wide functions of 10%

over 10 years, need room for 500 employees

Larger Board Room and conference space needed

– Recommend 30,000 gsf vs. current space of 3,605 gsf
