It's a Great Day that's Coming!

Here's some language from the DOE's Concept Design Overview Summary:
A copy of the completed submissions must be presented to the School Facilities Team a minimum of two weeks prior to the State Board of Education'’s meeting on the school's concept approval.
Therefore, materials for the two meetings -- with the DOE Construction Subcommittee (I think this is what's meant by "the School Facilities Team") on October 2 and the State Board of Education on October 11 -- must be submitted in Augusta by Wednesday, September 27.

Do you remember this language from Chapter 61*?
Prior to consideration by the State Board for Concept Approval, the school administrative unit shall provide to the Department a conceptual presentation of a proposed solution and conduct a second public meeting, prior to the State Board Concept Approval meeting, to present the same information to its public as it will to the State Board.[emphasis added]
So we maybe we can get access to these materials as early as September 27, a week from tomorrow! Why not? Oh happy day!
