Summary#

The development proposal includes an expansion to the Elmwood Senior School featuring a new entrance lobby, reception, and lounge adjacent to the Buena Vista Road parking lot, a double-height gymnasium with flexible performance center capabilities, a new fitness/athletics studio, and four new classrooms to the north of the existing gymnasium. This project also requires the re-grading, resodding, and irrigation of the existing playing field, which necessitates reorienting an existing fire route on Hillcrest Rd.
