Re: Hopkins Facilities Improvement Plan Update
A number of aspects of the plan need to be reported to Council at the October 22nd
meeting.
I. An improved site plan design for the Public Works/Fire site. The latest site plan
shows the key objectives being met in creating the separation for school bus and
child drop off at the Katherine Curren Elementary, playground spaces tied to the
. Central Park area, school and Pavilion parking, as well as re-designed spaces for
Fire Department and Public Works on the site. The changes also address
intersection concerns at I ih A v and I sl Street.
2. Update on obtaining a site for Public Works operation and equipment storage
during construction.
3. Identification of space for the Hopkins Emergency Operations Center and EOC
back up in the new construction to replace the current EOC space in the Fire
Department Training Room.
4. Preliminary cost estimates based on current site plans and elevations.
Staff is moving forward with planning and has identified the following key dates:
1117/02 Presentation to School Board
11/13/02 Neighborhood Meeting
11/26/02 Plans to Zoning & Planning
1/16/03 Public Open House
I look forward to the chance to update you on the progress of the Facilities
Improvement Plan.
