We are happy to report that the School Board unanimously approved a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) that accelerates the Wakefield bond cycles by 2 years. So what does the timeline look like now?
Nov 2008 - Bond Referendum of $99M on ballot. Funds enable planning and pre-construction to begin for Wakefield.
2009 - Bonds issued and funds spent on Wakefield planning and pre-construction.
Nov 2010 - Bond Referendum of $156M to voters. If approved, the funds are now ready to fully fund Wakefield construction over the proposed 4-year construction cycle.
2011-2012 -- No money spent on Wakefield
2013 - Wakefield construction begins
2017 - Wakefield construction complete
So what's next? Accelerate the 2013 construction start date and/or compress the 4-year construction cycle -- which is a plan that requires County Board engagement. Any comments you have would be helpful.
