YPS BCS 2020 SUMMARY BOOKLET 3-1-22 REV.pdf
Rationale: This is for the Board of Trustees to formally adopt the 2020 Building Condition Survey and 5 Year Capital Plan dated June 15, 2021, revised March 1, 2022 by KG&D Architects.

These documents are comprehensive assessment of the state of the school facilities and construction cost estimates to make required repairs. It does not address educational requirements or modernization. It is a living document and intended to be updated as required. The next such survey is scheduled for 2025. The intent of the adoption is to meet SED mandates and to permit the report’s promulgation to decision makers and stakeholders alike. The report has determined that the total cost of repairs, including soft costs and escalation is roughly $518,000,000. This is roughly $13 million per school.

Benefits of the Plan will include but are not necessarily limited to:
1. It will increase the efficacy of the allocation of capital funds.
2. Be a base for discussions with lawmakers regarding future funding.
3. Provide a road map for future improvements.
4. Become the base line for expansion of the Educational Facilities Plan (Long Range Capital Plan.)
5. Continue to provide the public with accurate information regarding the conditions of their schools.
Funding: NONE
