The first meeting of the Facilities Advisory Committee (FAC) took place on June 13, 2006.  Formation of the FAC is the first step in the process of designing the new Bells Mill (scheduled for August 2009 occupancy).  At this meeting, the committee voted to site-adapt the building originally intended for Kendale Road to the Bells Mill elementary school property.

One key element of this process is the development of a specification -- a list of rooms that the new Bells Mill will have, and the needs for each room.  This specification can be read here.

The second meeting was on July 25th at 7 p.m.
