801.3 - Educational Specifications for Buildings & Sites

Buildings and sites considered by the Board for purchase or construction or currently owned by the District and used for the education program must meet, or upon improvement be able to meet, the specifications set by the Board.

Sites acquired by the Board must meet or, upon improvement be able to meet, the specifications set out by the Bboard. The Board may meet in closed session to discuss potential purchases of sites.

Prior to remodeling or other construction of buildings and sites, the Board has the discretion to appoint a committee of consultants, employees, citizens, or others to assist in developing the specifications for the new or improved buildings and sites. These specifications will be consistent with the education program, and will provide the architect with the information necessary to determine what is expected from the facility. 

The education specifications shall include, but not be limited to, the financial resources available for the project, the definition and character of classrooms, the functional use to be made of the rooms, description of specialized needs, and other pertinent information as the Board deems necessary.

The Superintendent shall make a recommendation to the Board regarding the specifications of buildings and sites.
