Two issues are o f concern with the lone project. The new building will be five feet above the floor level of the current building so that water can flow under it in the event o f a flood.

The plans currently call for remodel o f the e.xisnng locker rooms in addition to the new locker rooms for the new practice gym. The estimated time o f com pletion for construction is betw een December 2002 and April 2003. Other issues discussed at the Nov. 14 m eeting include: - School Wide Planning: The next step is identifying exactly what is to be accom plished and the establishing goals.

The program is self funding by the selling o f ads that are run on the channel 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and through grants and donations. The cables are closed circuit, so only people subscribing to cable have access to the channel. It also negates the need for FCC regulations.
