• Core facilities should handle ultimate population, they should <br /> include: Cafeteria, Gym, Library, Auditorium, Administration <br /> area. <br /> It can be designed with wings, with one wing housing 350 students <br /> and some administration offices. The initial building can handle <br /> a complete curriculum before the addition. <br /> Ultimate size building 209 ,000 sq feet - 26 , 000 sq foot wing, the <br /> initial building will be approximately 183,000 sq feet. <br /> It results in a larger building initially and a more economical <br /> addition in the future. <br /> Mr. Jones asked if the State has to commit for the full amount? <br /> Mr. Franceschi stated the addition is treated as a separate <br /> project. <br /> The Committee asked how aggressive bids have been? Mr. <br /> Franceschi stated they still see some intense competition . <br /> Mr. Franceschi stated the State will support what a town wants to <br /> do for energy systems, i .e. heat recovery systems, as long as you <br /> don't exceed the limit. It is one of the tradeoffs the town has <br /> to make. It is his opinion there are more savings on the air- <br /> conditioning system. <br /> • Chairman Dinizio stated the Committee had not previously <br /> mentioned air-conditioning but would like to look at it. <br /> Chairman Dinizio received a memo stating all articles for fall <br /> town meeting are due on August 9th. This Committee has to focus <br /> on what they are going to ask the Town for and have to come to a <br /> consensus as a Committee. <br /> Tom Fudala stated the article will have to specify exactly the <br /> piece of land they want to acquire. The Committee decided to <br /> submit two articles in their entirety and shave off pieces as <br /> necessary. The article must include the cost of the land, the <br /> cost of borrowing and some fees, Anne Shaw usually calculates the <br /> amount. <br /> Bill Jones stated a single purpose special town meeting in late <br /> October, early November makes sense as opposed to being just one <br /> of many items on the agenda. <br /> An eminent domain taking requires a two-thirds vote of town <br /> meeting and an appropriation outside of Prop. 2 1 /2 also requires <br /> a two-thirds vote. <br /> There has to be an election for the tax exemption, having two <br /> ballot questions (for two sites) may be a problem. The Committee <br /> must determine the deadline for that. <br /> • Chairman Dinizio will talk with the Selectmen's office regarding <br /> these issues, articles, election, special town meeting. <br /> 2 <br />
