From the meeting
At its August 20, 2026 meeting, HCPSS said future work for the FY 2029 capital budget would include a comprehensive Program Sufficiency Study. Staff tied the study to improving analysis of programmatic space needs and refining the Board-approved facility prioritization process. This is a pre-procurement planning signal for consulting support tied to educational facilities planning before later capital decisions are set.
