Agenda Item 28.

Title
APPROVAL OF SUPPLEMENTAL PLANT SURVEY

Description
In 2021, the Florida Department of Education approved the District’s 2021 Educational Plant Five-Year Survey. Florida Statute 1013.31 mandates that supplemental surveys be submitted when a school district seeks to remodel existing buildings or construct new buildings not included in the Five-Year Survey. This survey amendment allows for the razing and replacement of buildings 1, 4 and 5 at Garden Elementary. Upon approval by the Board, the submittal will be accomplished online through the Florida Department of Education’s Educational Facilities Information System (EFIS).

Gap Analysis
The District’s 2021 Educational Plant Five-Year Survey did not include the razing and replacement of buildings 1, 4 and 5 at Garden Elementary. This survey amendment, once approved by the Board and submitted to the Florida Department of Education, would allow for the razing and replacement of Garden Elementary.

Previous Outcomes 
The Board has previously approved supplemental plant surveys in order to allow for remodel and new construction projects not included in the Educational Plant Five-Year Survey.

Expected Outcomes 
That the supplemental plant survey is approved to raze and rebuild Garden Elementary.

Strategic Plan Goal

Pillar 4 - Every School Equipped

Priority 2 - Create High Quality Infrastructure 


Recommendation
That the supplemental plant survey be approved as presented.
