At the Annual Meeting on Sunday, January 31 the congregation approved the spending of “up to $30,000 of unencumbered funds to further refine the design and estimates. (Like the original $40,000 approved last year for initial design, this added $30,000 for architectural work will be repaid from the capital campaign fund and considered a part of the capital project budget.)”
This phase, known as the “Design and Development” phase will create design documents that have detailed HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and architectural engineering. This level of design detail will permit the church to begin negotiations with potential contractors and obtain “not to exceed” total project cost numbers. This will also save time and allow for more competitive bids, given the construction economy at this time. This will provide the Congregation firm numbers to consider in deciding whether to then authorize the completion of design documents for bidding and construction.
For a more complete report on the status of the design process, read the handout that was shared on Sunday. Our Next Generation Building Repair and Improvement Progress Report110
