The Lincoln County School District is embarking on a significant initiative to assess and plan for its future facility needs. During their regular board meeting Tuesday, the LCSD Board of Directors unanimously passed a resolution directing the Superintendent to undertake a comprehensive information gathering process aimed at evaluating the potential for a replacement facilities bond. The District received voter approval in May 2011 for a $63,000,000 bond levy. The potential bond would renew the current bond levy that expires in June 2026. This initiative will focus on several critical areas to ensure the District is well-prepared to meet the continued educational needs of its students. Key areas of investigation include:
A complete assessment of facility needs, encompassing the requirement for new or replacement structures, long-term maintenance, and safety enhancements.
A review of the Construction Manager/General Contractor (CMGC) processes utilized in the 2011 Bond to promote local employment and ensure the efficient use of resources.
Engagement with staff, students, and community members through needs surveys to gather input and perspectives on facility priorities.
The development of a decision-making matrix that outlines necessary timelines and information for the Board to consider in deciding on pursuing a replacement bond.
Evaluation of the District's capacity to successfully implement a bond measure.
A comprehensive population study to forecast future educational needs and infrastructure requirements.
The Lincoln County School District invites the community to stay engaged and informed as it moves forward with this critical planning effort. Watch for opportunities for public input throughout the spring.
