Crunch Time!

An interesting meeting last evening; not as interesting as sleep, but almost!

Here's the takeaway:

• The concept plan is being adjusted as the architects negotiate with the State.
• Blatt feels that the State DOE people are close to signing off on the concept.
• It then goes to the State Board. Before it goes to the State Board, there must be another Straw Vote.
• After approval by the State Board, then it goes to referendum, a minimum of 30 days after the State DOE concept approval.

Here are the dates:

• Meeting with the DOE Thursday, January 18, 1 pm Augusta
• Building Space Needs/Programming Sub-Committee Thursday, January 18, 6 pm, DRHS ATM Room
• Straw Vote Thursday, February 1, 7 pm Dexter Middle School
• DOE Construction Subcommittee Monday, February 5, Augusta
• State Board of Education Wednesday, February 14, Augusta
  
• Referendum Tuesday, March 20 (tentative)
  

These dates are posted on the Citizens of MSAD 46 Calendar. I'll write more on the meeting later.
