Building Committee Activities Coordinated with AT Architecture to develop the Phase 1 construction documents Contracted with SK Geotechnical firm for a soils analysis of the future building site Committee toured the new Atonement Lutheran Church and discussed with them how that facility design was developed and constructed Toured the new addition to Apostle Lutheran Church.

3. Geotechnical Report Bore 6 holes o 4 of the holes were drilled in the approximate location of the new building corners o 2 were drilled in the approximate location of the new parking lot

4. Geotechnical Report Continued Good construction soils and complex foundation construction will not be required Groundwater was found at an elevation roughly 10 feet below the parking lot The groundwater will necessitate a continuous foundation drain and permanent sump pumps The new south parking lot will not be paved for a year to allow for settling

5. Phase 1 Construct the entire Education Building shell Completely finish the first floor Finish the majority of the basement Complete the basement connection from the new addition to the existing building. Demolish the A frame and the existing education wing to the Fireside room Construct the new south parking lot (see note in Geotechnical report)

6. Phase 1 continued The first floor will house the pre school The first floor will provide temporary office space for the staff and pastors The finished portion of the basement will be at a lower quality at this time to save money The rough approximate median construction cost for this first phase is $2,660,600.

7. Additional Option Items Additional Option Items will be constructed if funding is available: Option 1 - Add Narthex - $440,000 Option 2 - Finish 2nd Floor - $250,000 Option 3 - Finish 3rd Floor - $120,000 Option 4 - Finish Basement - $50,000 Option 5 - Add South Entry - $30,000 The above cost are budgetary and will be refined as the project proceeds.
