When: Ephrata Area school board meeting, May 10, live and via Zoom video.
What happened: The school board authorized the administration to move ahead on contracts for the music space, Washington facility, HVAC and district office project at cost of $32.85 million. The project, which is coming in at or below the projected bid price, includes a complete HVAC system replacement at the high school and middle school.
Details: The construction and renovation plan has three main components including an addition to Ephrata High School to accommodate expanded music and performing arts spaces. Also, a program called Project Build a Better Future, which teaches students ages 18-21 with special needs how to prepare for life outside the classroom, would move from the Washington facility to the high school. The headquarters for the student services department, also there, would move to the high school.
When: Ephrata Area School District board meeting, May 3, in person.
What happened: Property owners in the district may face up to a 3.7% tax increase to fund the $76.12 million spending plan in 2021-22, the board announced during a committee meeting in the Ephrata Middle Schoolâs media center. As more data from the state and federal resources becomes available in the next 30 days, the board will determine how much of a tax hike, if any, is necessary.
What this means: The maximum tax levy allowed by the state would be 17.88 mills. That means the owner of a property assessed at $173,718, the district average, would face a $109 increase and a tax obligation of $3,106. Last year the district had no tax increase.
When: Ephrata school board meeting, April 19.
What happened: Business Manager Kristee Reichard said the district will move the bid opening for its planned $38 million construction project to May 3. After discussions between Superintendent Brian Troop, architects and Reichard, they decided to move the bid opening because of supply-chain issues. There are issues with steel and getting some of the equipment, Reichard said.
Background: The project has three main components including an addition to Ephrata High School to accommodate expanded music and performing arts spaces. Also, a program called Project Build a Better Future, which teaches students ages 18-21 with special needs how to prepare for life outside the classroom, would move from the Washington facility to the high school.
