Clear Creek Constructs FAQS

Q: How much will the district net from the Sale of the Carlson property? Where will that money go?

A: The District is expecting to net more than $5 million from the sale. That money will be deposited into the capital reserve fund and be used to pay for emergency repairs, preventative maintenance, and could provide funding for additional space renovations at Building 103. Putting dollars into the capital reserve fund also potentially allows us to leave more money in the general fund, instead of taking general fund dollars each year and putting them into capital reserves. 

There have been many ideas floated regarding the use of Carlson and/or the property, including housing, a hotel, retail, etc. It’s a great location that should be of benefit to the town and community in general.

Update 3/22/23: The Board of Education will need to declare Carlson excess property prior to starting any sales. No formal review has been done to determine Carlson’s value.

​

Update 11/14/24: Plans for the former Carlson Elementary School building have begun and the
District recently connected with the community for feedback. The BOE has approved a resolution
for the sale of the former Carlson Elementary School building. Funds from the sale will be
allocated to the capital budget.

Q: Would the library be impacted by a sale of Carlson? 9.23.21 

A: The library property is separate and not owned by the school district. There is no conversation of which we are aware that impacts the library space or property. The library is well situated for local residents and is a great support and resource for students and families across the entire county.​​

​

Q: How will you keep students separate from those who use other portions of Building 103?  
 

A: It will be important that anyone using space at Building 103 has a purpose aligned with the district and community. Elementary school students will be separated by different entrances and secured from other occupants of Building 103 (the only exception could be school district offices nearby or part of the school).
