Dear HM Families,
As a reminder, there is a meeting of the Horace Mann School Building and Design Review Committees on Thursday evening at 6:00pm. You probably have the link for the meeting already, but if not here it is: https://newtonma-gov.zoom.us/j
At this meeting we will be going over a few minor changes to the site plan and interior floor plans.
I will also be explaining Thursday evening that this will be our last meeting where the SBC takes the lead. After this meeting, the SBC will join the DRC on Wednesday evenings as we move further into the schematic design phase and start working on Site Plan Approval. This does not in any way diminish the role of the SBC. The DRC has always welcomed feedback, input, and questions from the SBC members. We've still got lots of design work left to do so there will be ample opportunity to stay involved and help continue to shape the future of this project. This transition occurs to align the process with the City of Newton Revised Ordinances that drive the roles and responsibilities of the Design Review Committee.
Regards,
Josh Morse
Public Buildings Commissioner
Public Buildings Department
City of Newton
