Public Presentation: Site selection for new K-5 Elementary School

Tanner/Foster Creek area

Land Acquisition RFP Sealed Offers Received on 9/18 Selection Committee Reviewed on 9/23

Results of the RFP: Two Proposals Received

Proposal 1: City of Hanahan with three potential sites Proposal 2: Private Owner with one potential site

Proposal 1: Site 1 –TMS #2590000117 Site 2 –TMS #2590000104 Site 3 –TMS #2530000001

Evaluation Comment for Proposal 1: Site #1 – Not Viable. Site #1 – Not sufficient acreage or correct geometry for a school. Site is 11 acres upland and the site is long and narrow. Not enough room for building, parent loop with sufficient stacking, bus loop, playgrounds, detention, sewer lift station, etc. Not enough frontage for two lanes and not enough room for single entry with a split parent and bus drive.

Evaluation Comments for Proposal 1: Site #2 – has potential, investigate further Site #2 – 17 acres upland, awkward geometry, frontage lacking but potential for single entry with split bus and parent drive – this site could be viable but additional investigation need.

Evaluation Comments for Proposal 1: Site #3 – property is not owned by proposer; not viable at this time. Site #3 – property is not owned by

• proposer. If ownership is transferred

to the City of Hanahan, then BCSD should pursue this option further in conjunction with other property.

Proposal 2: TMS #2590000044

Evaluation Comment for Proposal 2: not viable by itself but in combination with proposal 1, Site #2 has potential, investigate further

9-10 acres –Geometry is long and

• narrow. Only current access is from

Henry Brown Blvd. Not enough frontage for two lanes and not enough room for single entry with a split parent and bus drive. Not enough room for building, parent loop with sufficient stacking, bus loop, playgrounds, detention, sewer lift station, etc.

Other Considerations:

Both sites would require sewer lift stations. Both sites have access concerns. Both sites have awkward geometry Both sites would require Williams Lane improvements. There are no perfect sites. The combination of the proposals give more flexibility for incorporating the school design elements and have the greatest potential for success.

Selection Committee Recommendation: The combination of proposal 1, Site #2 and proposal 2 would make the best school site for

• BCSD. Pursue

contracts with both

• wners. Start due

diligence on both properties as soon as possible in order to potentially open the school in August 2016.

Time for Public Discussion and Input

Be patient as we go through the due diligence process.
