Approve Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for Elementary D (Operations Division)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A previously approved District Facilities Five Year Work Program provides for a new elementary school in southern Hillsborough County to ensure the availability of satisfactory classrooms for projected student enrollment in K-12 programs for the 2020/21 school year. In conjunction with Elementary C that opened for the 2017/18 school year, Elementary D will assist in relieving current or projected overcrowding at Sessums, Collins, Boyette Springs and Stowers Elementary Schools (other Area 8 schools may be impacted).  On October 4, 2016, the Board appointed Holmes Hepner Architects, Inc. and Allstate Construction, Inc. to provide design and construction management services.

Approval of the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) will establish the cost for the project.

Project completion is scheduled for August 3, 2020.
