New Addition

Author: Andy Mills

Planning Unit: Meade County CES

Major Program: Community Vitality and Leadership - ANR

Plan of Work: Community Forums, Built Environments, Great Pumpkin Pursuit

Outcome: Long-Term Outcome

After 2 years of planning and delays because of the pandemic. The 7,500 square feet new addition to the Extension Service is complete. This ANR agent helped evaluate the needs assessment, the design and layout, as well as supervised during the whole development and construction process. All three agents were heavily involved with the whole process - forming a building committee, designing, and decision making during the process. Forty-three building committee and District Board meetings were held, during the 14 month process. The educational opportunities along with the number of people that can utilize the facilities now has greatly expanded. This will help market our mission and should help  accomplish many extension goals.
