We have received a preliminary “Pre-Design Report” from McKinney-York Architects. This includes analyses of materials, plumbing, roofing, landscape slopes, water pathways, air conditioning and heating systems, foundations, etc. They have given us some examples of playground concepts, and possibilities for where to put the money we have to work with. The building team will meet Dec. 2 to confer about this report. It is our intention to bring the congregation as a whole into the conversation after we have applied the congregation’s stated priorities (from Town Hall meetings in 2014) to the ideas from the architects. These conversations may happen as early as January. Please watch an announcement and newsletters for the Town Hall meeting schedule.
