2 DESIGN NARRATIVE CIP BUILDING PROGRAM 2006 LACY ELEMENTARY Wake County Public School System February 5, 2007

3 LACY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CIP BUILDING PROGRAM 2006 DESIGN NARRATIVE February 5, 2007 Existing Buildings The original buildings, the earliest of which was constructed in the early 1950 s, have experienced ongoing indoor air quality problems, which seemingly can not be completely eliminated. Besides this, their present layout on the campus affords far less than ideal passage or visual monitoring between them. Consequently, WCPSS Facilities Staff previously determined these buildings need demolishing, with the exception of unit C, constructed in The 2006 Program developed by Staff (attached) lists 64,071 SF of new facilities to replace these structures. The intention is that remaining building C eventually connects to these facilities so that all interior spaces are accessible without ever having to go outside. Other needs to address during plan(s) development as listed in the meeting minutes dated 11/15/2006 (attached) and as follows are: Site Work Resurfacing those that exist, and providing additional parking spaces to satisfy the current City of Raleigh zoning regulation. Provide adequate on-site car and bus queuing to meet NCDOT MSTA guidelines. Improve accessibility to playfields and replacing existing equipment/ structures. In addition, resizing and/or positioning playfield components as site conditions allow. Establishing, early in the process, definitive tree conservations areas as mandated by local ordinance and, thereby, viable areas where construction can occur. School Capacity Existing building C classrooms will be augmented with seven temporary modular units to provide enough swing-space during construction. A preliminary site plan developed by WCPSS planners shows these units on the east side of campus. When the new building is complete, teaching spaces will increase to 37 and student capacity to 586, from present numbers of 32 and 471 respectively. A location for 4-6 future modular units is also shown on each of the enclosed schemes. Scheme Overviews

4 The six (6) total diagrammatic schemes included with this document show various new program layout proposals. The main architectural attributes, pro and con, of each particular scheme as listed below- Scheme #1 Pros- Existing west, or front, side of site utilized for new building placement, taking advantage of relatively level topography. Main entrance visible from Lake Boone Trail/ Ridge Road intersection. Core spaces (Cafeteria, Media RLV, & M-P Area) centrally located. Existing school and after-school care bus loop locations utilized. New car queuing separate from parking area. New service area screened by building from primary streets. Most mature trees preserved. Scheme #1 Cons- Insufficient playfield areas and a small track. Distance between most parking and main building entrance. Scheme #2 Pros- All those listed for #1, except less amount of car queuing separated from car parking, reducing amount of new paved area and increasing buffer between it and playfield. Opportunity to present a more traditional front door entry to the street (Ridge Road). Easy access from Cafeteria and M-P Area to front courtyard. Scheme #2 Cons- Circulation linkage with existing building is not as strong as other schemes. Consequently, interior visibility between what will be new and what is there now will be less as well. Insufficient playfield areas and small track. Distance between most parking and main building entrance. Scheme #3 Pros-

5 All those listed for #1, except less amount of car queuing separated from car parking. This scheme assumes acquisition of adjacent residential property, which allows parking and playfield areas to be in closer proximity to building(s). It also enables track and soccer field sizes as listed in Ed Spec. Courtyard framed by new building also screened from major streets by it. Scheme #3 Cons- Cafeteria and M-P Area more remotely located from 4-5 classrooms than other schemes. Students from these grades must pass by Pre-K through 1 ST grade areas in-route. Service drive is visible from within several rooms. Loading dock is more visible from South side of Darien Drive. Scheme #4 Pros- Much of new building more isolated from visual and acoustical distraction caused by street traffic. K-2 play areas are better isolated as well. Administration area more centrally located. There is a closer proximity of parking to Cafeteria and M-P Area. It is easier to secure remainder of building from Cafeteria and M-P Area. Scheme #4 Cons- Parking is more segmented, and car loop queuing more circuitous. Cafeteria and M-P Area more remotely located from 2-3 classrooms. Scheme #5 Pros- All those listed for #1, except less amount of car queuing separated from car parking, reducing the amount of new pavement. Overall footprint of new building upon the site is the least of all schemes. Safest, most direct access, of all schemes, to the proposed modular units location from main building. Scheme #6 Pros-

6 Cafeteria and M-P Area are immediately adjacent to main entrance and in close proximity to parking. Much of new building more isolated from visual and acoustical distractions caused by street traffic. K-2 play areas are better isolated as well. Better access from the Administration area to most of the teaching spaces, than other schemes. Scheme #6 Cons- Cafeteria, M-P Area, Art and Music more remotely located from 2-3 classrooms. Main Entrance faces away from intersection of major streets. *Area Summaries- New Renovation Scheme #1 60,961 SF 12,182 SF Scheme #2 62,577 SF 12,182 SF Scheme #3 61,005 SF 12,182 SF Scheme #4 65,886 SF 12,182 SF Scheme #5 75,319 SF 12,182 SF Scheme #6 64,555 SF 12,182 SF

The Program, distributed to all attendees, list 37 teaching spaces, a net increase of 5 above existing. In addition to Program requirements listed, siting for 4-6 modular units must also be included as part of this contract. NEW Building 'C' will continue in use during demolition of existing, and construction of new buildings. An interior wall, between 2 classrooms within this structure, shall be removed to create a temporary space suitable as multi-purpose. This wall, and most or all interior finishes throughout the building, will be replaced before completion of new construction NEW A site plan was distributed by Ms. Rorie showing a temporary modular school to be located on the southeast portion of the property. Comprising units should be placed by Spring Break 2008, if not before. Although site plan approval for these will be handled through a separate contract, SL&H was encouraged to consider any viable alternate location for them when developing Design Narrative schemes. NEW Existing retaining walls along the Northeast side of the property either partially, or wholly encroach into the street right-of-way. (The site survey, subsequently obtained by SL&H, shows all portions of these walls within the right-of-way.) The structural integrity of the walls is doubtful as they list considerably toward the street. Assuming their replacement is required, they then must be moved within the property line. NEW A general summarization of phases that occur during the planning process was verbally outlined by Ms. Rorie. One point of emphasis, was the necessity to establish consensus as to the site and building plans by conclusion of the Design Development phase, and not request any significant change thereafter.

26 Wake County Public Schools 1551 Rock Quarry Road Phone: Raleigh, NC Fax: MEETING MINUTES No ITEM DESCRIPTION STATUS STARTED DUE BALL IN COURT A question was discussed as to whether any attempt has or will be made to purchase the neighboring Kelly property. WCPSS continues to entertain this possibility, although it might well be cost prohibited, given local real estate values. NEW The project schedule will be approved by all concerned at WCPSS and made available soon. All critical dates, including that for the first, and subsequent Design Narratives, will be listed therein. NEW There are supplemental requirements in addition to those found on page 3 of the CIP 2006 Building Program, having to do with providing facilities for the hearing impaired. Tentative needs were verbally listed by Ms. Rorie- 1 classroom designed for such students per grade level, including Pre-K as well as all self-contained classrooms. In addition, 2 other classrooms shall be so designed, for a total of 13. This distribution and total should be verified with Ms. Rorie prior to the first Design Narrative submittal. NEW Gerald Core stated permits for the modular classrooms will be obtained by March 2007, with set-up completion by Decmeber However, because of long existing air quality issues within most present facilities, school staff favors moving into the temporary modular school by August 2007, if possible.

These schemes included associated site plan changes specific to each one. The group consensus favored Scheme #6. WCPSS staff directed it be revised according to the comments listed below, and resubmitted for review. NEW The taller, core spaces should be grouped together, to the extent possible. Media RLV should be relocated to where the Administration area was shown in Scheme 6. The Cafeteria and M-P Area can be directly across from it, and the service drive extended. Admin./ Student Services should be located to face Lake Boone Trail. The main entrance should be relocated to face this street as well. NEW More car loop queuing area should occur within parking areas to reduce new paving. Towards that end, the car loop should be routed through a double-bay section, between the building(s) and the street, along the North side of the site. NEW Students arriving by bus should enter the building at the NEW enclosed connector between existing and new construction. Printed On: 2/12/2007 Page 1 of 2 f_mm_02_coordinator Rev. 9/2/05

45 FEASIBILITY AND COST ANALYSIS (Rev. 4/9/98) A comparison of the feasibility and cost of constructing a new school building with that of renovating the old school building(s) that it would replace ( in accordance with G.S. 115C-521, amended by H.B.1001, 1993). Date: May 4, 2007 Administrative Unit: WCPSS School Name: Lacy Elementary 1820 Ridge Rd. School Address Raleigh, NC School Code: DSP School Number: Grades Served: K-5 Approx. Capacity: (when renovated) Site will be reused sold/transferred D Building Number: (from Property Accounting) Year Constructed: 1990 Building Area:(sq.ft.) 4,694 No. of Stories: 1 (including occupied basement/ground floor) 0 No. of Regular Classrooms: Other Program and Support Spaces in Building(list and indicate number of each): Multi-Purpose Room, Stage, Individual Toilets, & Office. "RENOVATION" IS DEFINED AS FULL RENOVATION TO BRING THE BUILDING(S) INTO GENERAL COMPLIANCE WITH CURRENT BUILDING AND HANDICAPPED CODES: BUILDING ENVELOPE (windows, roofing, interior finishes, exterior walls, etc.); PLUMBING, MECHANICAL, AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WILL BE IMPROVED (or replaced) TO CURRENT STANDARDS; AND PROGRAM AND FUNCTIONAL SPACES WILL BE MADE TO APPROXIMATE CURRENT SPACE STANDARDS. I. BUILDING DESCRIPTION Using a School Planning report or a local evaluation of the building(s) based on the example comparative descriptions on page 2. Overall campus is in fair condition Describe in general the reason for the proposed action concerning the existing school building(s). Predominately older buildings present accessibility, indoor air comfort/ quality and wayfinding problems. Substandard access from parking, car/ bus drop-offs and play fields to building. Replacement of major buildings evaluated as very good to excellent long-range facilities requires a more detailed justification. Proceed with Feasibility Analysis and/or Cost Analysis on following pages. 133
