Tim asked about the final pricing. David King from Kaestle Boos went over the procedure of how the plan would be conducted. They would need to get into the schools before school ends. Colline asked if Kaestle Boos would be able to prioritize the needs of the building defects. The said they would.

Accept Kaestle Boos as our architect for the Facilities Master Plan, pending an affirmative vote on March 13th, 2007.  Unanimous for those present.

 

Respectfully submitted,
