• The Gym and Admin buildings have been cleared out (thank you Richard for coordinating). Our next step should be to get laser measurements of all interior spaces. We have been advised that this will cost a ballpark figure of $10,000 (give or take). We can wait for direction from the architects awarded the job, or solicit bids for work immediately. 

• Development for Sitework RFP should start in July with the goal of release early August.
  C. MASTER PLAN: FINANCING
   
Anticipated costs for Master Plan work after RFP is awarded:

1. 3d laser scan of the buildings: $7,500 - $12,500 range. 
2. Schematic Design and Drawings: $51k - $77k range.
3. Consultant team (contractor, mechanical - electrical - plumbing- civil engineering fees) approximation: $175,000
