AGENDA ITEMS
a. PKIMC Space Planning Options Draft Report Discussion
David Conrad introduced Corey Wall from Jensen Yorba Wall and the goal of
the overall project and the meeting. Corey wall reviewed the drawings, ages of
the sections of the buildings and provided an overview of the draft report.
The Board discussed the previous evaluation of the buildings and estimates
that were provided previously: in 2020 renovations of the current building were
estimated by JYW to be $30 million and a new tower was estimated to be $60
million. The consensus in 2020 of the Assembly was to build a new tower and
forego the renovations.
After the meetings that were held in the fall of 2023, the next step was to
develop 1-3 specific concept plan options and obtain cost estimates. Corey
also added verbally that he would like to propose a plan zero, meaning that
they would provide a cost estimate to renovate what is currently in place.
Corey's goal is to have a final report by the end of September with options and
estimates.
During the most recent meetings that Corey held with PKIMC and KCHC, and
the general discussions with Assembly members during the current meeting.
The PKIMC number one priority is to create an "Empty Chair" shell on the 2nd
floor/with expansion options in the future. KCHC's number one priority is to
expand their space. And the assumed number one priority of the Assembly is
to demolish and replace the aging West Wing with a multi -story new addition
and relocate/reconstruct all departments within.
There were discussions among the board regarding the possible options. Off -
site locations were discussed. Options to be off the table and options to be
"must -haves" were discussed but none were concretely decided upon.
