Long-Range Facilities Planning Group

Sequim School District
Long-Range Facilities Planning Group (LRFPG)

Background:

The Board of Directors and the Superintendent are now exploring long-range facilities planning. Currently, Sequim School District’s Capital Project Levy is providing for the completion of several campus projects including but not limited to: HVAC, ADA, roofing, safety, and building modernization. The Capital Levy is due to expire December 31, 2025. In light of this expiration, the Sequim School District is establishing a Long-Range Facilities Planning Group (LRFPG) to assist with creating a district-wide long-range facilities plan. Effective long-range planning involves a balance between maintaining existing structures and strategically investing in future improvements.

Duties of LRFPG:

Review Building Assessments:

  • Review Assessment of the condition of existing school buildings
  • Collaborate with experts to evaluate structural integrity, safety and functionality
  • Document findings and prioritize necessary repairs or upgrades

Building Condition Reports:

  • Review comprehensive reports detailing the condition of each facility
  • Review information on infrastructure, HVAC systems, electrical, plumbing, and other critical components
  • Highlight areas requiring immediate attention and those that can be addressed over time

Long-Range Facilities Planning:

  • Develop a strategic plan for the district’s facilities over an extended period (e.g., 5-10 years or longer)
  • Consider enrollment projections, educational program needs, and community growth
  • Identify facility requirements based on anticipated changes

Environmental Considerations:

  • Address environmental sustainability and energy efficiency
  • Explore renewable energy options, waste reduction, and Eco-friendly practices
  • Align facilities planning with environmental goals
