Core Team Minutes 12-10-12



CORE 12-10-12

·         Initial findings from Peter L showed that we don't have enough elevation difference to have the walkout arrangement shown on all out drawings...easily.
o    If the front of the school is at 784 and there is no articulation between it and the front of school building and the studio/shops then the back of the shops will need to be 794 (+ 2 or more for drainage). 
o    This gives us a grade difference of 10' between front  and back.  A flat quad between the existing school and the shops and also a big useable flat field in the upper area.
o    The new DRB date is Jan. 8th whatever is the second Tuesday in Jan
Materials need to be in the week before…..Kate will research and inform.
