Cost Considerations

• The cost presented is all inclusive – total

cost

• Where do costs come from
• How was the cost determined
• How much? - examples
• Why do schools cost more today
• 13

Cost Considerations


• ESA (Environmental Study Assessment): determine

history of site and potential impacts

• Developmental Engineering Studies: determine

issues with the site (sewer, drainage, stormwater, etc...)

• Appraisal(s): determine the cost of the proposed

property

• Endangered Species Studies: determine if there are

any issues, KARST features (caves), etc…

• Antiquities/Cultural resources: archaeological studies

to determine old structures, burial sites, etc…

14

Typical Pre-Purchase

Where do they come from?

Cost Considerations


Typical Project Related

• Consultant Fees: compensation to consultants for

design (Architects, Engineers, etc...) and other fees (geotechnical & material testing, civil off-site, etc...)

• Municipal/County: platting & permit fees
• Utility Fees: payment to connect utilities (SAWS

Sewer & Water and CPS Electrical)

• Surveys: conduct a tree, topography, etc…
• Drainage: TCEQ fees for review and construction of

detention & water quality ponds

• TIA: conduct a traffic analysis

15

Where do they come from?

• Furniture/Equipment/Supplies: classroom desk,

library furniture, shop equipment, fine arts furnishings, athletic equipment, administration furniture, library books, AV equipment, software, etc.

• Infrastructure: tree preservation, tree mitigation,

easements, off-site work (roads, utilities, etc...)

• Technology: cabling, computers, software, etc…
• Contingencies: to support budget overages and any
• ther impacts

Cost Considerations


Typical Project Related

• How was the cost determined
• Historical cost
• Information from local contractors and sub-

contractors

• Information from architects and engineers
• Information from other school districts
• Inflation cost has been factored into the

projects

Cost Considerations

20

How much?

Cost Considerations


Schools cost more to build today…
 why?

– Technology – Multiple computer labs and

computers in all classrooms and infrastructure (cable, wiring, electrical)

– Fuel/Petroleum – Affects construction via products,

production and delivery of all materials

– School Sites – More challenging sites (topography,

lack of useable area) than most school districts, especially as the District expands to the Hill Country

– Eagle Ford Shale Initiative – Trade and material

resources dedicated to this initiative

– Laws/Ordinances – Increase in rules impact costs

21

Potential Projects


• How were the projects selected?

22

• Input from Stakeholders

Maintenance Department – conditional assessment (HVAC equipment, electrical, etc…) Construction and Engineering Staff – survey of building conditions Resource Planning – growth projections (new

schools & sites)

etc...)

Selection Process

Potential Projects


• Input from Stakeholders continued

Minor Construction Project Requests (MCPR) process - requests Review of previous bonds – items not considered or included
