  A. Establishing Goals for Master Plan development
   
Our master planning goals as we enter into the next phase of development are to:
1. honor EMSA’s mission, vision and values
2. to respect the rich history of our campus
3. to be mindful of our impact on the environment and natural resources
4. to support EL Education’s innovative learning model
5. to build a financially sustainable campus.

  D. Master Plan: Phase 2 Next Steps
   
Laser scanning is the first step in the Phase 2 schedule. Originally, Laser scanning what priced at 7-12k, WKarch has sent out bids and recommends going with VIATECHNIK for both buildings at 4k. Laser scanning provides the most accurate and cost efficient way to document every dimension of the interior of the buildings. The cost is significantly lower that anticipated because WKarch will be converting the data into a revit model (at no additional cost) rather than having the scanning company provide that service.

To do this in the most cost effective and accurate manner:
1. Buildings need to be cleared out to the best of our ability. Once the vendor contract is signed, we will ask recommendation for items remaining in the buildings: i.e. should items be in the center of the space vs. against the walls.
2. WKarch recommends tearing out any accoustic or dropped ceilings for recording accuracy. (WKarch would like to come out look through the spaces to identify any issues prior to scanning.)
