Capital Improvement Project 2020

In an effort to be environmentally and fiscally conscious of paper use and consumption, documents are available as digital sets.

Summary of Capital Project 2015 - 2020:

In 2015, Avon CSD contracted with Ashley McGraw Architects to complete the NYSED mandated Building Conditions Survey. Our Facility Planning Committee, a team of over fifteen community members, parents, staff, administrators, and strategic partners, reviewed the survey which totaled over $15 million in repairs and maintenance. The most critical areas to address;

  • Sections of ES & HS Roofs

  • Storage

  • Transportation Building, Bus Lift, and Secure Bus Parking

  • Auditorium

  • Intercoms

  • ES, MS, and District Office Main Entrances

The total cost of the repairs and improvements was estimated at $6,900,000, including the use of approximately $1,000,000 from Avon CSD's Capital Improvement Reserve Fund, with NO ADDITIONAL TAX IMPACT. The Public Hearing was held on November 19th, 2018, and residents voted on the proposed project on December 11, 2018. The project passed with a 152 YES - 31 NO vote.
