Commissioner Boone inquired about the watershed area, of which this site is a part. Only a certain percentage of the area can be built upon or covered with an impervious surface. I understand that there is sufficient space for the school planned for now, but will there be room for future expansion because of the watershed regulations? Commissioner Boone asked. Dr. Register said with 20 acres, there should be ample room to build as large an elementary school as they want to build. They see this school growing to the 800 - 850 size in the near future, but they are planning the building, working with the architects, for expansion. They are comfortably under the requirements, Dr. Register said. Commissioner Madison remarked that the difference between Site B and Site C is about $10,000, and Site C has access to the Brawley School Road, which is between Williamson and the interstate, where you would have much more readily available traffic flow in and out. It appeared to Madison that it would be a much better solution to the traffic problem. Dr. Register said they did not have an offer to sell on that particular piece of property. They were anticipating the price per acre in the $30,000 price range, but the owner is not willing to sell at this time. Chairman Haire inquired about the price per acre on the Oak Tree Road location. Dr. Register said the total cost is just under $11,500 per acre. The owner has been approached. Dr. Register said the site chosen seems to be the best and most efficient overall of all the sites.
