Agenda Item Summary: This item provides an update to the purchase of 1701 and 1705 N. Beauregard Street.
Background: Since February 2016, staff has been engaged in a search for properties that can accommodate the increased enrollment of students in the school division. After looking at several available properties and applying our criteria of needed square footage, site conditions, and access for West End families; the purchase of 1701 and 1705 North Beauregard Street was completed in April 2017. The current plans consist of retrofitting the office building at 1701 North Beauregard by making substantial changes to the inside to convert it to suitable space for approximately 640 elementary students. The purchase of 1701 and 1705 consists of the land and all developments on these sites including the parking garage (1705) adjacent to the building, part of which would be converted into outdoor spaces for students at the school.
