A plan for future building modifications shall be maintained and continuously updated for inclusion in planning for construction.  These planning elements shall be followed:

1. Principals shall submit requests for building modifications by January 15 of each year or as instructed by the Division of Business Affairs.
2. Principals’ requests for building modifications shall be considered in terms of priorities.
3. Safety and health of students and staff will be considered when remodeling is undertaken.
4. Priorities have been established by the Lincoln Board of Education when considering remodeling project needs.
   • Correction of security, safety and health deficiencies
   • Housing of students
   • Projects must meet program requirements, including outdoor space
   • Projects needed to maintain the integrity of current Lincoln Public Schools buildings
   • Repair/renovation of ancillary facilities
   • Parking

Major remodeling may follow the same procedure as new construction, but there are also alternate provisions for that work which can be done without architectural services.
