Future planning for large longer range capital projects

Committee discussed longer range plans for facilities improvement needs.  Martin suggested using higher estimates for fundraising purposes and potentially adding a project like a science lab that we might get a corporate sponsor to support.  Todd suggested adding a project earlier in the trajectory that would allow for upgrade the restroom in the Div 1 and sports hallway as they are the most public facing and quality of life for sport.   Martin also suggested an upgrade to the auditorium.  The committee mentioned adding a wish list of sorts for quality of life projects as mentioned.   The committee would like the numbers more rounded when reporting out to the board. The committee agreed on the 1-3 projects, would like to add the wish list to the 4-10 year, and maintain the 10+ list.  Committee would like to meet with the Development Committee as group to talk about fundraising for upcoming projects.  Committee agreed that to report out to the board in broad terms in regard to future planning.
