Overview: The recent Greeley-Evans District 6 School Board meeting concentrated on evaluating the future of the district’s facilities, weighing the costs and implications of renovating the current district office against constructing a new building. The board discussed the deteriorating state of the existing 70-year-old building, with issues like flooding risks and outdated systems, estimating a renovation cost of approximately $23 million, which might underestimate the potential for hidden problems. In contrast, constructing a new building, including demolition and other associated costs, would amount to about $48 million. The urgency of this decision was underscored by the opportunity for the district to partner with the city and county for downtown development, which could be a unique chance to secure a desirable location without incurring land purchase costs. The board recognized the financial challenge, considering the district’s budget constraints and deferred maintenance on other aging facilities.
