Public Meetings
Over the last five weeks, the SBC has conducted multiple public meetings, providing an overview of the High School Project under review. As part of these meetings, a series of "fit-tests" have been discussed in an effort to identify the multiple priorities and concerns and to tap the collective creativity needed to yield the right project for our town.
A "fit-test" is a design concept which identifies one way the list of desired spaces can literally fit on a site. The project architects have developed multiple fit-test options, which range from partial renovation/new construction to all new construction. The physical site is remarkably constrained and has posed significant restrictions on where and how the building can be constructed. Further information on the site and fit test options can be viewed in the SBC presentation available online. The input received at these public meetings will be reviewed by the SBC over the next few weeks, as they continue to assess the options and the estimated costs. |
