F UNDING THE P ROJECT | MSBA P OLICY MSBA Policy for Project Approval • To qualify for any funding from the MSBA, the District must follow the MSBA statute and regulations. The Schematic Design submittal informs the basis of the approved project scope, schedule and • Maximum Total Facilities Grant. In order for the MSBA to enter into a Project Scope and Budget Agreement with the District, the • District must: Submit a Schematic Design for the proposed project prior to the MSBA Board meeting • Receive approval from the MSBA Board for its proposed project • • Return 3 signed copies of the Project Scope and Budget Agreement to MSBA In order for the MSBA to enter into a Project Funding Agreement with the District, the District must • secure local authorization and funding within 120 days of the MSBA Board's vote. Town Council Presentation | August 6, 2019 12
F UNDING THE P ROJECT | MSBA P OLICY MSBA policy if Town fails to vote to appropriate funding A failed vote “will likely result in the school district being required to submit a new SOI and await • invitation”. In a typical year, the MSBA receives more than 80 statements of interest and invites less than 15 districts in to their eligibility period. There is no guarantee that the district would receive another invitation to eligibility. • Loss of approx. $33.8 Million in potential state funds + reimbursement rates are subject to change in the future based on MSBA funding capacity and future changes to policy. The value of construction continues to rise at a steady rate. Construction cost reports list the • Boston region at a 4.42% annual increase from January 2018 to January 2019. Any future project is estimated to have a greater construction cost due to industry-wide cost increases. Town Council Presentation | August 6, 2019 13
