San Diego Unified School District | Assistance to administrators of the school district in pursuing a surplus schools disposition program. The San Diego Unified School District held a portfolio of surplus school facility assets, and was interested in regularizing a negotiated disposition process. A “request for proposals,” or RFP, process was recommended, along with methods for generating interest in the portfolio of surplus district assets, methods for pre-qualifying interested third-parties, and a process and approach to ranking proposed business deals submitted by investors and real estate developers.
One of the largest school districts in the U.S., San Diego City Schools serve more than 134,000 students. In operations since 1854 the district has grown from a small, rented school building with one teacher to more than 200 educational facilities with 14,500 full-time equivalent staff positions. This seventh largest urban district in the United States is extremely diverse – including more than 15 ethnic groups and dozens of languages and dialects. Work completed by an SCP principal while with predecessor firm.
Project feasibility study for recreation park to be located in the primary visitor corridor in the Wyoming and Montana region. The project site is situated with stunning views along the Tongue River, looking on to the Bighorn National Forest and various mountain peaks in the distance.
As part of of preparing a long-range economic development program for the Northern Cheyenne Tribe, specific projects were identified using various existing tribal assets and resources. The tribe’s Thunder Child property could be developed as a significant recreation adventure park given its relative proximity to U.S. Highway 90 which traverses the greater Sheridan (Wyoming) area bordering southern Montana.
The project also has the potential for repurposing of a former 22,000 SF health services rehabilitation center on the property, into a lodge and destination conference center for the facility. Following its initial development and health services operation, the building has been shuttered but reasonably maintained for re-use.
