Part of 256 00:13:19,915 --> 00:13:21,365 Part of the process that we used 257 00:13:21,365 --> 00:13:22,525 for breaking these down is 258 00:13:22,525 --> 00:13:24,445 to understand these evaluation criteria 259 00:13:25,135 --> 00:13:27,765 don't necessarily need to be a comparison between 260 00:13:27,765 --> 00:13:30,645 what we do at Bethany and what we do at hemenway. 261 00:13:31,185 --> 00:13:34,485 Now we will have an involved discussion of that 262 00:13:34,485 --> 00:13:37,405 through the PSR, but we would recommend 263 00:13:37,405 --> 00:13:40,565 that at this time we choose one ad Reno at hemenway, 264 00:13:40,745 --> 00:13:44,125 one new construction at Hemenway, one, Bethany 265 00:13:46,325 --> 00:13:50,015 Road, new construction, and that all of those advance 266 00:13:50,155 --> 00:13:52,135 and if the committee feels it's necessary, 267 00:13:52,155 --> 00:13:53,655 others could advance as well. 268 00:13:53,675 --> 00:13:54,975 So we would have more options 269 00:13:55,395 --> 00:13:57,975 and that would factor into the evaluation that we do. 270 00:13:58,235 --> 00:14:03,175 Now, what we don't recommend at this time is 271 00:14:03,175 --> 00:14:07,775 to be weighing Bethany options against Hemingway 272 00:14:07,775 --> 00:14:11,935 options because each of the options really either work 273 00:14:11,955 --> 00:14:14,375 or don't in terms of how they're presented on the screen. 274 00:14:15,155 --> 00:14:16,815 The other thing that I'll say is 275 00:14:16,815 --> 00:14:19,535 that while we could only list 12 in our initial ranking 276 00:14:19,605 --> 00:14:22,135 here, the second slide that we'll get 277 00:14:22,135 --> 00:14:24,175 to in a minute is a word cloud. 278 00:14:24,555 --> 00:14:28,415 So if there was something that the committee felt was not 279 00:14:29,735 --> 00:14:31,895 represented in these 12 options that we proposed 280 00:14:32,395 --> 00:14:37,045 to be ranked, we can have you add those in 281 00:14:37,145 --> 00:14:39,725 and then we'll analyze those between now 282 00:14:39,725 --> 00:14:43,405 and the next meeting and bring back the top ranked 283 00:14:45,085 --> 00:14:48,285 criteria as well as the items that come from the word cloud 284 00:14:48,715 --> 00:14:53,105 that are consistently recommended by folks on the committee. 285 00:14:53,535 --> 00:14:56,345 Yeah.

So we're gonna run through the options here 397 00:21:30,325 --> 00:21:33,525 that we've started with and these are preliminary 398 00:21:33,625 --> 00:21:37,605 and sort of beginning to put rails around the strategies 399 00:21:37,605 --> 00:21:38,685 that we had presented earlier 400 00:21:39,665 --> 00:21:43,605 to remind you a little bit here are the Framingham site 401 00:21:43,605 --> 00:21:44,885 constraints, sorry, him 402 00:21:44,885 --> 00:21:45,925 and way site constraints 403 00:21:48,185 --> 00:21:50,565 of the existing building and site. 404 00:21:50,625 --> 00:21:52,565 And so there's really two major access points. 405 00:21:52,565 --> 00:21:53,805 Those are the red arrows on the 406 00:21:53,805 --> 00:21:55,845 front, the building in yellow. 407 00:21:56,065 --> 00:21:59,645 And then the big solid black line is the buildable area. 408 00:21:59,865 --> 00:22:02,005 Inside of that is what is the buildable area. 409 00:22:02,665 --> 00:22:04,885 And then you can start to decipher some of the setbacks 410 00:22:04,885 --> 00:22:07,085 with the different dotted lines and dash lines 411 00:22:07,225 --> 00:22:10,165 and things like that along with flood zones 412 00:22:10,905 --> 00:22:12,445 and steep slopes. 413 00:22:12,505 --> 00:22:16,645 And so not, not the easiest site to deal with. 414 00:22:16,645 --> 00:22:20,685 You can go to the next slide. And so we talked 415 00:22:20,685 --> 00:22:23,885 to you about the strategies in each of these options so far. 416 00:22:23,885 --> 00:22:27,525 You're gonna see on the right upper right hand corner is the 417 00:22:27,765 --> 00:22:29,285 strategy that the option's related to. 418 00:22:30,065 --> 00:22:32,845 And so this one was the option 419 00:22:33,145 --> 00:22:34,965 or strategy where we had an addition 420 00:22:34,965 --> 00:22:36,005 up in the top left corner. 421 00:22:36,075 --> 00:22:37,805 Another reminder is that there's 422 00:22:38,565 --> 00:22:40,645 essentially three building separation, 423 00:22:41,215 --> 00:22:42,805 separation lines in the building. 424 00:22:42,985 --> 00:22:47,725 And so it's not super important for right now, 425 00:22:47,725 --> 00:22:49,285 but that's where we kind of broke the building 426 00:22:49,285 --> 00:22:50,325 apart in different ways. 427 00:22:50,505 --> 00:22:54,725 So this option is a three story renovation edition 428 00:22:54,725 --> 00:22:55,885 option at the Hemingway. 429 00:22:55,885 --> 00:22:56,965 It's called AR one. 430 00:22:57,585 --> 00:23:00,725 It has a major addition in the back of the building, 431 00:23:01,645 --> 00:23:03,925 which is about a two story spot, 432 00:23:04,025 --> 00:23:06,085 but it's big spaces like the gym 433 00:23:06,145 --> 00:23:09,125 and the, yeah, mostly the gym. 434 00:23:09,265 --> 00:23:11,245 And then the three story addition on the front, 435 00:23:12,315 --> 00:23:13,885 there's a portion of this building. 436 00:23:13,945 --> 00:23:16,845 You can see on the right hand sort of right middle, 437 00:23:17,235 --> 00:23:19,205 there's a key and then there's a floor plan. 438 00:23:20,055 --> 00:23:23,805 These, you know, what we hope you will do is take these 439 00:23:24,535 --> 00:23:27,805 after the meeting, they were in your packet too, 440 00:23:27,825 --> 00:23:29,525 and you can start to evaluate and, 441 00:23:30,185 --> 00:23:32,325 and review those a little bit more in depth. 442 00:23:33,105 --> 00:23:35,925 But these are at PDP level, really supposed to be sort 443 00:23:35,925 --> 00:23:37,805 of at a glance at this at this point. 444 00:23:38,255 --> 00:23:40,605 We'll get more detail as we get going further. 445 00:23:41,825 --> 00:23:43,325 But this one has that little arm 446 00:23:43,325 --> 00:23:44,845 that sticks out over the parking lot. 447 00:23:44,845 --> 00:23:48,085 This manages to keep drop off and pickup and circulation 448 00:23:48,085 --> 00:23:49,245 because it's tight already. 449 00:23:50,145 --> 00:23:52,085 And then create more space above that. 450 00:23:52,625 --> 00:23:56,525 And so that's AR one three story edition renovation. 451 00:23:56,785 --> 00:24:01,475 You can go to the next slide. So 452 00:24:01,815 --> 00:24:04,675 AR two is a two story addition renovation. 453 00:24:04,885 --> 00:24:07,795 Again, similar strategy with the addition in the back, 454 00:24:07,795 --> 00:24:10,515 which adds space for gym and cafeteria. 455 00:24:11,295 --> 00:24:13,515 And then as you can see in the top right hand corner, 456 00:24:13,575 --> 00:24:15,675 the blue area that says addition, that's the part 457 00:24:15,675 --> 00:24:18,515 of the building that we would take down and rebuild. 458 00:24:18,615 --> 00:24:20,955 And so that allows us to get a two story building 459 00:24:20,955 --> 00:24:24,515 because we're getting more space to build new and, 460 00:24:25,055 --> 00:24:28,075 and actually make right sized 461 00:24:28,175 --> 00:24:29,755 and right program for the building. 462 00:24:29,855 --> 00:24:32,755 And so the big differentiator between AR one 463 00:24:32,755 --> 00:24:35,955 and AR two at this point would be the two story addition 464 00:24:36,195 --> 00:24:37,635 renovation option. 465 00:24:37,635 --> 00:24:39,715 And that's what you see. See here, 466 00:24:39,935 --> 00:24:43,715 no big arm cantilevering out over the site. 467 00:24:45,095 --> 00:24:48,075 And so yeah, so this is a two story addition renovation 468 00:24:48,075 --> 00:24:51,035 with addition in the back and the front, right? 469 00:24:51,695 --> 00:24:55,225 And go to the next slide. And 470 00:24:55,225 --> 00:24:56,745 so AR three was looking at taking, 471 00:24:56,775 --> 00:24:59,825 basically replacing the entire front part of the building, 472 00:25:01,465 --> 00:25:04,465 maintaining some of the courtyard that's there now, 473 00:25:05,045 --> 00:25:08,825 but building a three story option, a three story portion 474 00:25:08,845 --> 00:25:11,345 of the building that's in this plan on the top. 475 00:25:11,925 --> 00:25:14,145 And then a smaller portion on the 476 00:25:14,705 --> 00:25:17,985 lower portion on the lower bit of the plan in the plan view. 477 00:25:18,925 --> 00:25:22,825 And another sort of, all these have a similar strategy 478 00:25:22,825 --> 00:25:25,625 where we're trying to put big space at the back end 479 00:25:25,625 --> 00:25:27,985 of the building, which is the, you know, 480 00:25:28,085 --> 00:25:30,545 in this instance it's an expanded cafeteria. 481 00:25:31,245 --> 00:25:34,145 And then the reason for the three story addition is 482 00:25:34,345 --> 00:25:35,945 'cause part of it is a two story gym. 483 00:25:36,965 --> 00:25:40,825 So, so another option here, this would have a similar appeal 484 00:25:41,285 --> 00:25:44,385 or similar look as the existing school, just a bit taller. 485 00:25:45,585 --> 00:25:46,625 You can go to AR four. 486 00:25:49,125 --> 00:25:51,045 And then AR four is looking at an option 487 00:25:51,045 --> 00:25:53,245 that replaces the entire back part of the building. 488 00:25:53,305 --> 00:25:56,645 So that right now houses the gym and music 489 00:25:56,745 --> 00:25:58,805 and some portable buildings. 490 00:25:59,385 --> 00:26:01,285 And so what we're doing here is trying 491 00:26:01,285 --> 00:26:04,205 to academically rebuild all the classroom space, 492 00:26:04,455 --> 00:26:07,365 three story addition on the back and then create 493 00:26:07,905 --> 00:26:10,685 and renovate all the space on the front side of the building 494 00:26:11,465 --> 00:26:12,485 and create a new gym. 495 00:26:13,225 --> 00:26:15,965 One comment that was just made in your criteria evaluations 496 00:26:16,955 --> 00:26:21,365 from one of the members was about phasing in logistics and, 497 00:26:22,545 --> 00:26:26,085 and planning for especially the Hemingway options, 498 00:26:26,085 --> 00:26:29,525 which is going to require us to find alternative space 499 00:26:29,625 --> 00:26:31,245 or put modulars on the site. 500 00:26:31,705 --> 00:26:33,525 And so that's the next layer of information. 501 00:26:33,525 --> 00:26:35,485 We're gonna start putting on all of these so 502 00:26:35,485 --> 00:26:37,325 that you can understand that impact. 503 00:26:37,385 --> 00:26:41,005 But right now we're just looking at initial strategies 504 00:26:41,105 --> 00:26:43,045 and options that come from strategies. 505 00:26:43,745 --> 00:26:45,565 And so you can look at the next slide please. 506 00:26:49,005 --> 00:26:51,905 And so now we're going to pivot into a few new options 507 00:26:52,045 --> 00:26:53,225 on the Hemingway site. 508 00:26:53,545 --> 00:26:56,225 This is part of what the MSBA requires us to do. 509 00:26:56,685 --> 00:26:58,825 We have to show that we looked at completely 510 00:26:58,825 --> 00:26:59,945 new builds on the same site. 511 00:27:00,725 --> 00:27:03,065 And so that means just tearing the whole thing down. 512 00:27:03,245 --> 00:27:05,825 And so we've got a couple of ideas here on strategy. 513 00:27:06,125 --> 00:27:09,185 The one here, this first one is a more 514 00:27:10,175 --> 00:27:13,105 typical school that you would find in more kind 515 00:27:13,105 --> 00:27:17,945 of rural context or or semi-rural suburban communities. 516 00:27:18,785 --> 00:27:20,085 And it's got the wings 517 00:27:20,085 --> 00:27:23,045 and the differentiated learning communities, 518 00:27:23,705 --> 00:27:24,885 but it's only two stories. 519 00:27:25,065 --> 00:27:29,405 And so that allows us to get space on windows on all sides. 520 00:27:30,115 --> 00:27:31,525 It's solar oriented. 521 00:27:31,585 --> 00:27:34,485 So if you actually rotate this around for, for North, 522 00:27:34,535 --> 00:27:37,885 we're able to re position the long axes of the building 523 00:27:37,885 --> 00:27:41,845 where there's students all day long so that they have a good 524 00:27:42,405 --> 00:27:43,925 southern and northern exposure instead 525 00:27:43,925 --> 00:27:44,965 of the east west side. 526 00:27:45,865 --> 00:27:48,725 And so that's beneficial to the sustainability side, 527 00:27:49,415 --> 00:27:50,645 which is you'd have 528 00:27:50,645 --> 00:27:53,045 to do other things on the other options we've shown so far. 529 00:27:53,625 --> 00:27:55,845 So we've got, we're looking at here two story option 530 00:27:55,845 --> 00:27:57,965 as a new new building on the site. 531 00:27:59,155 --> 00:28:01,485 There's gonna be other layers of circulation 532 00:28:01,505 --> 00:28:04,165 and things like that coming with all of these sites as well 533 00:28:04,165 --> 00:28:06,325 where we'll start talking about bus loops and cars 534 00:28:06,465 --> 00:28:09,685 and pedestrians and drop offs and stuff like that. 535 00:28:10,065 --> 00:28:12,285 But for now it's just these initial test fits. 536 00:28:13,205 --> 00:28:16,185 You can go to the next slide. And 537 00:28:16,185 --> 00:28:17,625 so we looked at another version of that, 538 00:28:17,625 --> 00:28:19,825 which is a three story building, which allows us 539 00:28:19,825 --> 00:28:21,105 to pull back from the street. 540 00:28:21,125 --> 00:28:24,345 You can see that strategy is basically taking the one wing 541 00:28:24,365 --> 00:28:26,065 and stacking it on top of the other, 542 00:28:27,285 --> 00:28:29,545 but a similar back backside footprint. 543 00:28:30,085 --> 00:28:32,265 But this allows us to get a little bit more off the street, 544 00:28:32,265 --> 00:28:34,745 which is gonna be a little bit more pages for the amount 545 00:28:34,745 --> 00:28:38,665 of students on the site and how we can do circulation. 546 00:28:39,215 --> 00:28:40,625 Hang on, my lights just went off. 547 00:28:44,675 --> 00:28:46,825 Sorry about that. And it allows us 548 00:28:46,825 --> 00:28:48,665 to get a little bit more circulation on the site, 549 00:28:48,665 --> 00:28:50,905 which again, we'll start diagramming for the next pass. 550 00:28:52,885 --> 00:28:54,065 Yep, you can go to the next slide. 551 00:28:55,915 --> 00:29:00,855 And then the sort of final Hemingway option, new option 552 00:29:00,855 --> 00:29:03,055 that we looked at is a more urban type school 553 00:29:03,055 --> 00:29:05,495 where it's just a big block, like kind 554 00:29:05,495 --> 00:29:07,695 of a big solid block in the middle of the site. 555 00:29:08,205 --> 00:29:11,535 This allows us to get very dense on the programming and, 556 00:29:13,075 --> 00:29:16,855 and start to really pack things into a floor plate 557 00:29:16,855 --> 00:29:21,735 that isn't long or wing driven, but it's more central 558 00:29:22,075 --> 00:29:25,215 and sort of neighborhood driven on the floor plate itself. 559 00:29:25,395 --> 00:29:29,255 And so we'll talk more about that in future presentations. 560 00:29:29,315 --> 00:29:33,455 But Kristin Vertex actually really wanted us to study 561 00:29:34,155 --> 00:29:37,415 the urban school option on this site just to see what, 562 00:29:38,235 --> 00:29:40,455 how the committee feels about that as a new option. 563 00:29:40,475 --> 00:29:43,245 And so I agree and we should be showing this 564 00:29:43,245 --> 00:29:46,745 and hopefully we can get some traction on on 565 00:29:47,695 --> 00:29:50,545 that being what it needs to be for 900. 566 00:29:50,885 --> 00:29:53,465 And again, remember there's 985 students in all 567 00:29:53,465 --> 00:29:55,425 of these options K through 12 568 00:29:55,525 --> 00:29:58,665 or K through five, sorry, you can go to the next option. 569 00:29:58,695 --> 00:30:02,495 Next slide. All right, so shifting 570 00:30:02,675 --> 00:30:06,015 to the Bethany Road site, we wanted to kind 571 00:30:06,015 --> 00:30:08,375 of highlight some of the site constraints here. 572 00:30:09,235 --> 00:30:11,465 Again, I think we've shown a slide like this before, 573 00:30:12,205 --> 00:30:15,145 but the buildable area again is inside that sort 574 00:30:15,145 --> 00:30:16,225 of solid dash line. 575 00:30:16,885 --> 00:30:20,265 And then we have some steeper slopes in the sort of 576 00:30:20,965 --> 00:30:23,985 salmon color and the, 577 00:30:25,365 --> 00:30:27,625 the mid grade slopes are in purple. 578 00:30:28,005 --> 00:30:32,625 And then the sort of flat areas are in the green lime color. 579 00:30:33,245 --> 00:30:35,065 And so the middle of the site, right 580 00:30:35,065 --> 00:30:38,145 where it says buildable areas, actually the low part 581 00:30:38,145 --> 00:30:41,425 of the sites we're kind of in a valley like a, 582 00:30:41,455 --> 00:30:46,145 like a U-shape, almost like a glacial push valley here 583 00:30:46,765 --> 00:30:47,905 of, of land. 584 00:30:48,045 --> 00:30:50,905 And that's where the best usable site is 585 00:30:51,045 --> 00:30:52,225 and it's the most accessible 586 00:30:52,225 --> 00:30:54,265 and it's actually the, the elevation 587 00:30:54,265 --> 00:30:57,225 that the site main site road enters in right now. 588 00:30:57,925 --> 00:30:59,785 And so we just kind of wanted to bring that attention, 589 00:31:00,205 --> 00:31:02,065 the dashed lines on the right 590 00:31:02,085 --> 00:31:05,505 and the dashed line on the left are sort of the ridge lines 591 00:31:05,565 --> 00:31:09,665 of the two sort of top parts of the, of the hills. 592 00:31:09,925 --> 00:31:12,025 And so we have that going through, 593 00:31:12,025 --> 00:31:13,105 we have that valley in the middle. 594 00:31:13,165 --> 00:31:16,065 So that's, that'll orient you on how these 595 00:31:16,695 --> 00:31:18,305 next few options shake up. 596 00:31:18,305 --> 00:31:19,265 So you can go to the next slide. 597 00:31:23,355 --> 00:31:26,285 Okay, so we have here a two story option 598 00:31:27,225 --> 00:31:29,805 on this site, which is a two story and, 599 00:31:30,065 --> 00:31:33,285 and actually three story to the left could be both 600 00:31:34,445 --> 00:31:36,105 in some degree. 601 00:31:36,245 --> 00:31:40,905 And so we're trying to show that here 602 00:31:40,995 --> 00:31:42,385 where we can, this is similar 603 00:31:42,405 --> 00:31:46,025 to our interview site scheme too, where we have this, 604 00:31:47,135 --> 00:31:49,305 this floor plate that you enter into on the first floor, 605 00:31:49,305 --> 00:31:50,625 the second floor stacks above that. 606 00:31:50,625 --> 00:31:54,345 And then the third floor has the last grade of classrooms 607 00:31:54,405 --> 00:31:55,825 and then the mid, the middle 608 00:31:55,965 --> 00:31:58,425 of the building actually has all the core elements like gym 609 00:31:58,425 --> 00:31:59,745 and media and all of that stuff. 610 00:31:59,805 --> 00:32:04,665 And so, so this one would sit down at the, in the, 611 00:32:04,665 --> 00:32:05,705 in the bottom of the valley 612 00:32:06,405 --> 00:32:08,745 and then kind of nestle itself up against the hill 613 00:32:08,745 --> 00:32:11,585 where we can do some transition and landscape and drop off 614 00:32:11,605 --> 00:32:14,585 and maybe even make the second floor an entry 615 00:32:14,585 --> 00:32:15,705 on that on that side. 616 00:32:15,725 --> 00:32:19,025 But we still need to study how all that works, 617 00:32:19,035 --> 00:32:20,345 which we're doing right now. 618 00:32:22,375 --> 00:32:27,045 You can go to the next slide. And another sort of option 619 00:32:27,045 --> 00:32:30,245 and shape for the building is the, this is kind of the, 620 00:32:31,085 --> 00:32:33,105 I don't know, you wanna call that a hockey stick 621 00:32:33,125 --> 00:32:35,465 or whatever you wanna say it for the, for the shape. 622 00:32:35,725 --> 00:32:39,485 But this, this one gets us to a little bit more 623 00:32:39,485 --> 00:32:43,885 of a concentric core where the, the, the core 624 00:32:44,415 --> 00:32:46,445 spots come more public. 625 00:32:46,585 --> 00:32:47,965 So you can see those elements. 626 00:32:47,965 --> 00:32:49,565 They're sort of in the first floor plan. 627 00:32:49,705 --> 00:32:51,925 The gym and the media 628 00:32:52,065 --> 00:32:54,445 and the cafeteria service are all on the left hand side, 629 00:32:54,445 --> 00:32:55,525 but those are front facing. 630 00:32:55,665 --> 00:32:58,765 And so if you have community events, folks don't have to go 631 00:32:58,765 --> 00:33:01,045 through the building, which the other option would've had 632 00:33:01,045 --> 00:33:04,085 people go through the building to the, the more back part 633 00:33:04,085 --> 00:33:05,605 of the site or the building. 634 00:33:05,745 --> 00:33:07,845 And then, so this one kind of flips that 635 00:33:08,265 --> 00:33:09,925 and it gives us the ability to wrap. 636 00:33:10,045 --> 00:33:12,725 I don't know that it'll take this final form at the end 637 00:33:12,725 --> 00:33:14,965 of the day, but the idea is that it kind of wraps around 638 00:33:14,965 --> 00:33:19,405 that hill in some form or shape and puts the public spots 639 00:33:19,545 --> 00:33:22,445 or the, the big program spots that can be used after hours 640 00:33:22,465 --> 00:33:25,485 and for public use more towards the front of the building 641 00:33:25,485 --> 00:33:28,085 and then you can really get a sectioning off of the building 642 00:33:28,145 --> 00:33:31,565 and keep them compartmentalized for evening use. 643 00:33:32,225 --> 00:33:33,165 And go to the next slide. 644 00:33:39,315 --> 00:33:43,015 And then we did this, this, this option, which is 645 00:33:43,245 --> 00:33:45,215 what we're calling the dual school option. 646 00:33:45,275 --> 00:33:48,885 So this is, we'll talk more about this 647 00:33:48,945 --> 00:33:52,685 as we go further into the pro the the process here. 648 00:33:52,745 --> 00:33:56,845 But this, this option is looking at what if it became viable 649 00:33:56,905 --> 00:33:59,525 or feasible for us to do 650 00:34:00,425 --> 00:34:02,005 the dual school exactly what it says. 651 00:34:02,065 --> 00:34:05,205 And that's that we put, we just renovate Hemingway, 652 00:34:06,025 --> 00:34:10,165 we prove out that the building is okay for school 653 00:34:11,025 --> 00:34:13,925 now and it needs to be renovated for sure, 654 00:34:14,745 --> 00:34:18,725 but for a school of about 493 students it works 655 00:34:19,105 --> 00:34:23,845 and we can make that doable on site with pre-K. 656 00:34:24,185 --> 00:34:27,735 And then on Bethany Road we have a school 657 00:34:27,735 --> 00:34:31,295 of about an equal amount of students with pre-K 658 00:34:32,275 --> 00:34:33,975 out there on that site. 659 00:34:33,975 --> 00:34:36,895 And so you're splitting the required population from the 660 00:34:37,015 --> 00:34:38,815 MSBA into basically two schools. 661 00:34:39,035 --> 00:34:42,775 One gets a pretty decent renovation to it with systems 662 00:34:42,835 --> 00:34:44,375 and everything that needs to be upgraded. 663 00:34:44,835 --> 00:34:46,055 And the other is a new building. 664 00:34:47,115 --> 00:34:50,935 And the idea here is that if we run into the need 665 00:34:50,935 --> 00:34:52,895 to have schools in both locations 666 00:34:53,155 --> 00:34:56,375 or we find out that a 985 student, 667 00:34:56,385 --> 00:35:00,055 which will be the largest elementary school in Framingham at 668 00:35:00,055 --> 00:35:03,455 this point, if that becomes unwieldy 669 00:35:03,475 --> 00:35:05,455 or anything like that, this is an option 670 00:35:05,455 --> 00:35:07,695 that we would definitely have to get more in depth 671 00:35:07,695 --> 00:35:11,655 with the MSBA on in terms of their acceptance of it 672 00:35:11,715 --> 00:35:15,375 or even us being able to continue to pitch it to them. 673 00:35:16,115 --> 00:35:18,495 But for the sake of turning over stones 674 00:35:18,495 --> 00:35:20,855 and making sure we looked at all of the things available 675 00:35:20,875 --> 00:35:23,975 to us, we started to study this one as well. 676 00:35:24,115 --> 00:35:27,365 And so, and then can go to the next slide 677 00:35:30,885 --> 00:35:34,225 and then the renovation only 678 00:35:35,015 --> 00:35:37,525 here is the option that 679 00:35:38,555 --> 00:35:40,845 that MSBA also requires us to do. 680 00:35:42,425 --> 00:35:45,325 That's not this one, but this is the, the D one. 681 00:35:45,325 --> 00:35:46,605 So this is the rental option, 682 00:35:46,705 --> 00:35:48,765 the school part of the dual school option. 683 00:35:48,825 --> 00:35:50,325 So it doesn't, 684 00:35:50,825 --> 00:35:53,645 the renovation only option looks just like this actually. 685 00:35:53,745 --> 00:35:55,765 So it doesn't do much to the, 686 00:35:55,945 --> 00:35:58,725 to school's population doesn't expand, it doesn't grow. 687 00:36:00,185 --> 00:36:03,165 The nature of building the second school allows some pre-K 688 00:36:03,165 --> 00:36:04,805 to come into the building because you're 689 00:36:04,805 --> 00:36:06,885 generating capacity shift. 690 00:36:06,945 --> 00:36:10,205 And so that's why we can put pre-K in it as a, 691 00:36:10,425 --> 00:36:11,485 as a dual school option, 692 00:36:11,485 --> 00:36:16,085 but as a renovation only, we would be hard pressed to get 693 00:36:16,675 --> 00:36:17,925 much else into the building. 694 00:36:17,985 --> 00:36:22,755 So you can go to the next slide. And then the floor plan 695 00:36:22,895 --> 00:36:27,715 for the new smaller school again is able to get all of the 696 00:36:28,605 --> 00:36:31,115 large programs up to the front of the building 697 00:36:31,375 --> 00:36:34,315 and you'll see these common threads where we're trying 698 00:36:34,315 --> 00:36:38,515 to get the learning communities by grade differentiated 699 00:36:38,775 --> 00:36:40,635 and programmed out so 700 00:36:40,635 --> 00:36:43,195 that we can get the learning communities sorted that way. 701 00:36:44,535 --> 00:36:46,955 And so this is where that option is right now, 702 00:36:47,355 --> 00:36:50,995 looking at the two dual school plans themselves, 703 00:36:51,335 --> 00:36:52,355 you can go the next slide. 704 00:36:55,975 --> 00:36:58,355 And so those, that's the quick run through of options. 705 00:36:58,365 --> 00:37:01,435 Again, you should have these in your, in your packet 706 00:37:01,535 --> 00:37:04,195 and be able to sort of sit with them a little bit more and, 707 00:37:04,335 --> 00:37:07,155 and analyze and kind of think through them. 708 00:37:08,175 --> 00:37:10,035 The, I think the goal for tonight, 709 00:37:10,255 --> 00:37:12,195 and I'll hand it over to the chair 710 00:37:12,395 --> 00:37:16,315 after I say this, is to for you guys to, 711 00:37:16,895 --> 00:37:19,795 if you have questions about thought process behind any 712 00:37:19,795 --> 00:37:21,555 of these and more specifically 713 00:37:23,025 --> 00:37:25,565 and more urgently to the processes, 714 00:37:25,565 --> 00:37:28,285 we wanna know if there's any major options that need 715 00:37:28,305 --> 00:37:29,445 to be added to this 716 00:37:29,445 --> 00:37:31,445 that someone is thinking about we didn't 717 00:37:31,445 --> 00:37:32,525 already investigate. 718 00:37:34,225 --> 00:37:37,325 And that's, that's really what we need to kind of get 719 00:37:37,345 --> 00:37:39,485 to understanding is if we've kind 720 00:37:39,485 --> 00:37:41,725 of captured all the option ideas, 721 00:37:42,275 --> 00:37:43,725 even though they could evolve 722 00:37:43,745 --> 00:37:46,965 and permeate along the way changes. 723 00:37:47,145 --> 00:37:48,685 If you have anything to say about those, 724 00:37:49,225 --> 00:37:50,685 we can take them now too. 725 00:37:51,505 --> 00:37:53,725 But really we're kind of looking for did we kind 726 00:37:53,725 --> 00:37:55,525 of capture the breadth of options available 727 00:37:55,625 --> 00:37:57,045 and then we can start to hone in 728 00:37:57,045 --> 00:38:01,045 and use the selection criteria to kind of make some go away 729 00:38:01,145 --> 00:38:03,365 or continue studying other aspects. 730 00:38:03,425 --> 00:38:06,485 So Mr. Chair, I'll let you take the book. 731 00:38:06,835 --> 00:38:09,645 Okay, thank you.

Sorry Mr. Chair. 1003 00:51:38,395 --> 00:51:41,175 So I was actually going back to the question that I think 1004 00:51:45,415 --> 00:51:48,965 Chris from Tappe raised about, are there options that 1005 00:51:49,575 --> 00:51:50,925 we're not seeing here? 1006 00:51:52,175 --> 00:51:56,955 And this ties back to that dual dual school option. 1007 00:51:57,845 --> 00:52:00,555 We've talked about the importance 1008 00:52:00,555 --> 00:52:04,915 of keeping the Hemenway property as an active part 1009 00:52:04,915 --> 00:52:07,675 of the school district fabric, 1010 00:52:08,885 --> 00:52:13,025 but I don't know personally that splitting 1011 00:52:14,265 --> 00:52:15,685 the enrollment 1012 00:52:15,755 --> 00:52:19,085 between those two schools is really gonna bias us anything. 1013 00:52:19,205 --> 00:52:23,645 I mean the, the greater shortage is seats on the south side 1014 00:52:24,105 --> 00:52:26,805 so keeping half of them in the existing site 1015 00:52:28,035 --> 00:52:32,275 unless, sorry, keeping half of them in the existing site, 1016 00:52:32,435 --> 00:52:34,115 I don't think actually buys us anything. 1017 00:52:35,865 --> 00:52:36,995 What I would love to see, 1018 00:52:37,015 --> 00:52:38,955 and I don't know if it actually fits with 1019 00:52:39,495 --> 00:52:40,955 the MSBA ground rules 1020 00:52:41,015 --> 00:52:43,235 or something, I would love to see an option where 1021 00:52:45,535 --> 00:52:47,255 Hammond way stays as a pre-K 1022 00:52:48,425 --> 00:52:51,245 or as a pre-K K not as a pre-K five 1023 00:52:52,185 --> 00:52:56,885 and we actually continue with the idea 1024 00:52:56,885 --> 00:52:59,565 of shifting that population to the Bethany site. 1025 00:52:59,605 --> 00:53:00,645 I don't know if that makes sense. 1026 00:53:00,765 --> 00:53:02,725 I feel like I'm kind of rambling 1027 00:53:02,825 --> 00:53:05,565 but that's one option that I don't see here. 1028 00:53:06,655 --> 00:53:07,765 Again, I don't know if 1029 00:53:07,765 --> 00:53:10,325 that's a viable option from an MSVA perspective, 1030 00:53:10,465 --> 00:53:13,405 but we've talked about it multiple times. 1031 00:53:13,545 --> 00:53:15,845 The importance of keeping Hemingway in the picture. 1032 00:53:16,905 --> 00:53:19,155 Well I see a couple other hands up so I just, 1033 00:53:19,215 --> 00:53:21,875 but my first reaction to that Scott would be that's really, 1034 00:53:23,175 --> 00:53:25,325 you know, something that whether we are gonna have have a 1035 00:53:25,735 --> 00:53:27,325 pre-K site like that is really more 1036 00:53:27,325 --> 00:53:29,205 of a school committee decision than a 1037 00:53:29,545 --> 00:53:31,045 school building committee decision. 1038 00:53:31,265 --> 00:53:33,765 But anyways, just 1039 00:53:36,365 --> 00:53:38,525 I think I saw Adam's hand up before mine. 1040 00:53:38,555 --> 00:53:40,365 This is up still. I'm happy to 1041 00:53:40,995 --> 00:53:41,995 Next. 1042 00:53:41,995 --> 00:53:43,805 Go ahead. You got, you got recognized you only hand up. 1043 00:53:44,345 --> 00:53:45,885 So thanks Scott for bringing that point. 1044 00:53:45,885 --> 00:53:46,965 I think you make an important point. 1045 00:53:47,505 --> 00:53:49,725 My point was, I have two points. 1046 00:53:49,905 --> 00:53:52,245 One was just going back to the packet materials 1047 00:53:52,305 --> 00:53:53,845 of the the site. 1048 00:53:56,295 --> 00:53:59,955 So for example, we're not seeing on these plans 1049 00:54:00,335 --> 00:54:04,075 for the Bethany location, any of the similar 1050 00:54:05,955 --> 00:54:08,715 structure as we're seeing on the Hemingway site. 1051 00:54:08,715 --> 00:54:12,235 And that's based on the scale of the Bethany site. 1052 00:54:12,295 --> 00:54:16,515 Is that correct? So for example, we don't see option AR one 1053 00:54:17,155 --> 00:54:19,355 sketched out on the hem on the Bethany Pro 1054 00:54:19,355 --> 00:54:20,595 project for that purpose. 1055 00:54:20,605 --> 00:54:21,605 Right? 1056 00:54:22,705 --> 00:54:27,275 Well anything that's labeled AR is a specific building 1057 00:54:27,425 --> 00:54:30,115 that is tied to the keeping 1058 00:54:30,375 --> 00:54:32,475 of a like renovating that building, right? 1059 00:54:32,575 --> 00:54:37,115 So you wouldn't have anything in the AR categories would not 1060 00:54:37,205 --> 00:54:40,235 exist in that form or shape or anything on Bethany 1061 00:54:40,235 --> 00:54:42,155 because you don't have an existing building 1062 00:54:43,175 --> 00:54:44,435 to renovate or add to. 1063 00:54:45,095 --> 00:54:47,595 But I'm thinking of like a similar footprint 1064 00:54:48,335 --> 00:54:51,755 and it would be probably site dependent for that adjustment 1065 00:54:51,755 --> 00:54:55,155 to be made to put a similar footprint on Bethany. 1066 00:54:56,555 --> 00:54:59,365 Okay. Like A courtyard organization, would 1067 00:54:59,365 --> 00:55:00,765 that be a better way to describe it? 1068 00:55:01,525 --> 00:55:04,005 I think so. Okay. And 1069 00:55:04,505 --> 00:55:06,725 The three, so okay, that was just, 1070 00:55:06,725 --> 00:55:08,245 that answers my, that part of my question. 1071 00:55:08,245 --> 00:55:11,285 And then the second thing I just wanted to note is 1072 00:55:11,395 --> 00:55:13,885 regarding the additional meeting in bold, 1073 00:55:14,765 --> 00:55:17,205 I think I would lean toward having an additional meeting 1074 00:55:18,245 --> 00:55:20,165 just to be able to work out some of these 1075 00:55:20,185 --> 00:55:21,325 and get some more questions 1076 00:55:21,385 --> 00:55:23,685 and I think Brittany made a good point also about having the 1077 00:55:23,685 --> 00:55:26,285 bullet points and then to re's point 1078 00:55:26,285 --> 00:55:28,845 of like the actual like zoom out of like where, 1079 00:55:29,055 --> 00:55:30,685 where are people coming from, where are the parking 1080 00:55:30,785 --> 00:55:35,165 and the dropoffs situation's going to be positioned. 1081 00:55:35,545 --> 00:55:36,845 So that's all. Thanks. 1082 00:55:38,705 --> 00:55:39,735 Thank you Mr. Chair. 1083 00:55:40,215 --> 00:55:42,975 Building on some of the prior comments, when you are able 1084 00:55:42,975 --> 00:55:44,575 to hopefully add some bullet points 1085 00:55:44,575 --> 00:55:46,335 or descriptions for each item, 1086 00:55:46,335 --> 00:55:47,975 whether it's directly on the slides or 1087 00:55:47,995 --> 00:55:49,695 or both with the corresponding document. 1088 00:55:50,255 --> 00:55:51,935 I think adding the favorable outcomes for 1089 00:55:51,935 --> 00:55:54,455 what each design gets us when it comes to all 1090 00:55:54,455 --> 00:55:56,895 of the different goals that the district has 1091 00:55:56,955 --> 00:55:58,255 and the city has with this project. 1092 00:55:58,755 --> 00:56:01,495 That's one piece. I also like what Mr. 1093 00:56:01,495 --> 00:56:03,775 Wildland said about kind of multiple options. 1094 00:56:04,175 --> 00:56:08,375 I, if I was my choice, I would keep your two school option 1095 00:56:08,675 --> 00:56:11,815 as well as a Hemingway pre-K K or pre-K two 1096 00:56:12,155 --> 00:56:14,535 and see how that changes in shifts if 1097 00:56:14,655 --> 00:56:17,535 that's not too much workload. 1098 00:56:17,595 --> 00:56:19,735 And the reason I say that is if there's any hope 1099 00:56:19,735 --> 00:56:22,735 of getting MSBA funding for that, I believe we do, 1100 00:56:22,735 --> 00:56:25,445 we do owe it to do that review as well 1101 00:56:25,445 --> 00:56:27,605 as the mayor's executive order creating this committee did 1102 00:56:27,605 --> 00:56:31,085 put that in our scope both for pre-K expansion, wherever 1103 00:56:31,085 --> 00:56:32,965 that may be across the entire city. 1104 00:56:32,985 --> 00:56:36,405 So it is something that I think should be considered. 1105 00:56:36,825 --> 00:56:38,925 And then whether or not we have another meeting I I lean, 1106 00:56:39,085 --> 00:56:40,085 I lean towards yes. 1107 00:56:40,885 --> 00:56:43,285 But I'm also curious if someone could help me understand a 1108 00:56:43,285 --> 00:56:46,205 little bit more about when the pricing will come in, how, 1109 00:56:46,305 --> 00:56:48,405 how that works and, 1110 00:56:48,425 --> 00:56:51,045 and remember some of the, the pricing challenges of, 1111 00:56:51,045 --> 00:56:54,365 of a prior project just from, you know, changes over years 1112 00:56:54,425 --> 00:56:55,725 and escalation and just wanna make sure 1113 00:56:55,725 --> 00:56:57,045 that there's a great deal 1114 00:56:57,105 --> 00:56:58,965 of thought in the appropriate disclaimers 1115 00:56:58,985 --> 00:57:00,925 before any of those prices come out. 1116 00:57:01,015 --> 00:57:02,015 Thank you. 1117 00:57:04,125 --> 00:57:08,855 Yeah, so we would get pricing back in early July 1118 00:57:09,355 --> 00:57:13,775 and in early July we would 1119 00:57:14,275 --> 00:57:16,495 tap a, and Vertex would go through a process 1120 00:57:16,505 --> 00:57:17,975 where we add in the, 1121 00:57:18,075 --> 00:57:20,015 the estimates themselves actually come back 1122 00:57:20,295 --> 00:57:24,265 with escalation on them and then Vertex 1123 00:57:24,265 --> 00:57:27,625 and Tap A will have a conversation around the soft cost 1124 00:57:27,645 --> 00:57:30,385 and additional contingencies that we think should be added. 1125 00:57:31,445 --> 00:57:34,065 For example, the soft cost 1126 00:57:34,245 --> 00:57:36,945 for an addition renovation on Hemingway are gonna be higher 1127 00:57:36,945 --> 00:57:39,705 than a new building on Bethany 1128 00:57:39,705 --> 00:57:42,865 because you don't have some of the additional adders like 1129 00:57:44,665 --> 00:57:46,305 phasing, temporary school, 1130 00:57:46,665 --> 00:57:47,905 temporary conditions, stuff like that. 1131 00:57:48,525 --> 00:57:50,785 And so the soft costs are gonna be different 1132 00:57:50,805 --> 00:57:53,505 for the two sites and the two each option too. 1133 00:57:54,085 --> 00:57:57,465 And so we'll go through a process of giving you all of that, 1134 00:57:58,415 --> 00:58:00,065 showing you very clearly 1135 00:58:00,245 --> 00:58:01,945 how it's generated and how it works. 1136 00:58:02,405 --> 00:58:06,225 And, and then I think that 1137 00:58:06,365 --> 00:58:09,945 as we get further down the, the road you'll have, 1138 00:58:09,945 --> 00:58:13,105 you'll start to get all the clarity that comes with this. 1139 00:58:13,125 --> 00:58:15,945 And, and I just wanna put a reminder out there that, 1140 00:58:17,765 --> 00:58:19,825 you know, you don't, you're not 1141 00:58:20,335 --> 00:58:22,545 selecting the option at the end of PDP. 1142 00:58:22,565 --> 00:58:25,425 And so really your job at this point, you can take 1143 00:58:25,485 --> 00:58:27,745 as many options as you want into PSR 1144 00:58:27,945 --> 00:58:31,895 although it's, it's probably advisable to call some 1145 00:58:31,895 --> 00:58:34,855 of them out if you can like the big, the big ones that 1146 00:58:35,875 --> 00:58:37,695 are gonna survive or don't have merit, 1147 00:58:37,915 --> 00:58:39,175 we can take those off the table 1148 00:58:39,195 --> 00:58:43,415 and spend our energy going through other options in the PSR 1149 00:58:43,415 --> 00:58:47,015 that are more in line with district goals and milestones 1150 00:58:47,115 --> 00:58:48,855 or not milestones objectives. 1151 00:58:49,635 --> 00:58:53,595 And so I think that the PSR is when you really, 1152 00:58:53,595 --> 00:58:56,555 really get down to like business on like really 1153 00:58:56,555 --> 00:58:57,595 understanding them. 1154 00:58:57,795 --> 00:59:01,435 PDP is kind of more, we're throwing a bunch 1155 00:59:01,435 --> 00:59:04,595 of stuff out there and we're doing it fairly quickly 1156 00:59:04,615 --> 00:59:07,115 and getting order magnitude numbers related to them. 1157 00:59:08,815 --> 00:59:10,795 And so that's really the process that we're in right now 1158 00:59:10,855 --> 00:59:12,635 and what's gonna happen over the next 1159 00:59:13,955 --> 00:59:15,855 two months, really June and July. So yeah, 1160 00:59:15,895 --> 00:59:18,175 I, I can clarify those two points a little bit more, 1161 00:59:18,175 --> 00:59:20,135 Chris, in terms of the pricing. 1162 00:59:20,525 --> 00:59:24,925 Pricing at PDP is about looking at your typical MSBA school 1163 00:59:25,785 --> 00:59:28,765 and trying to apply the same metric to 1164 00:59:28,765 --> 00:59:30,965 how the different options appear on the page. 1165 00:59:31,745 --> 00:59:36,125 So it's about figuring out if we do this, is this one going 1166 00:59:36,125 --> 00:59:37,805 to be more costly than the next?
