Staunton Schools Superintendent said he s dismayed with EDA s decision

View Comments STAUNTON The Staunton Economic Development Authority voted down a proposal by Staunton City Schools to acquire part of the old Western State Hospital. The school division’s plan was to refurbish the hospital’s former operations facility off of Frontier Drive and use it in the same capacity for the schools. The EDA, which controls the property as part of the Staunton Crossing development, denied the request in a 5-1 vote.  Staunton City Schools had hoped to move its maintenance shop from Shelburne Middle School and its bus parking lot and transportation office from Staunton Public Works to the Frontier Drive facility once refurbished. 

Staunton EDA denies school board request for Staunton Crossing property acquisition

Staunton EDA denies school board request for Staunton Crossing property acquisition View Comments STAUNTON Staunton City Schools will not be calling Staunton Crossing home for its operations facility thanks to a vote from the Staunton Economic Development Authority Thursday.  The school board approached the EDA to acquire the old operations facility for Western State Hospital located just off of Frontier Drive. The school division has examined at least eight properties, according to Superintendent Garett Smith, but they haven’t found one that meets their needs for its maintenance and transportation division any better than this building.  Staunton City Schools have been using the basement of Shelburne Middle School for its maintenance shop since the 1970s. It’s a cramped space that was never meant to be a permanent home for the maintenance staff and was originally the industrial arts classroom for the school.
