Site Plan

Construction Home

The site presented two major challenges. Heavy rains routinely flooded the basements of neighbors on Reynolds and Vaughn Streets.  Secondly, there was not enough parking on the upper site for popular community events.  The site plan will significantly improve drainage and increase parking by 22%. There will be 60 more spaces on upper site, and 37 more spaces on lower site.

Pedestrian access to the lower fields and parking will be safer.  A lighted, ADA- accessible sidewalk will run along the road, and the road no longer goes through the American Legion parking lot.  The path from the parking lot will be widened, lighted, and ADA accessible; the new bridge will have railings.

Traffic circulation will be much safer.  In the new pattern, the present exit will become the entrance for all traffic; it will be the exit for buses only.  Buses will enter, circle past the tennis courts into the drop-off area by the main entrance, and exit.  Traffic to pick up students will enter, turn left to a drop-off lane and circle in front of Building A, and exit by the present entrance.  Service vehicles will use the separate entrance near the new cafeteria.
