The initial scope of work involved the development of an Educational and Facilities Master Plan for the College, which led to the decision to request voter approval of an $89 M capital-construction bond issue. The bond passed in 1998, and MAAS was engaged to establish a Facilities Development Office and oversee the master planning and construction as the Owner’s Representative.
While serving in that role, MAAS updated the Facilities Master Plan for the College, which included a new education center in Watsonville and a leased facility for a center in Scotts Valley. These centers involved state and federal grant funding in addition to local bond funds.
MAAS assisted the District with both educational and facilities master planning and in state reporting requirements, including the Annual Space Inventory Report, Initial Project Proposals (IPPs), Final Project Proposals (FPPs), the Five-Year Capital Construction Plan, and all related state reports.
