At a routine facilities meeting at the
Cheltenham School District building Feb. 5, the design team updated school
officials, parents, teachers and community members about the plans for the
school.
This presentation was in preparation for a township zoning meeting scheduled for Feb. 26 in Curtis Hall at 7:30 p.m.

The plan proposes the construction of a multimillion-dollar, two-story building with a 65-space parking lot and a school bus loop that’s access point is located on Barker Road and can accommodate 12 buses.

A major criticism expressed by the community was that the bus loop was bigger than it needed to be and the team took that under evaluation, Harris said.
“There was a reason for [the large bus loop] in that we were trying to circulate buses around to drop students off in the entry zone,” he said.
Harris proposed a size decrease to the loop to accommodate the nine buses that serve the school. With this change, he said that it will give them the space to design a serpentine sidewalk system so students can avoid walking through the bus zone, as well as give them the opportunity to add more green space.
The team also examined if it was efficient for school buses to remain parked on Barker Road in the new design — a suggestion that was received from the community.
“Water will be able to penetrate into the ground instead of going down stream, but can also be sized with an outlet structure,” he said. “The water can back up into this system and act as a temporary detention, which slows down the rate water runs off the site.”
About 2 feet of soil will be excavated out of the ground and replaced with a mixture of sand, top soil and compost — and greenery will be planted on top. This will be done at two locations on the site where the soil has been tested and deemed good for water filtration, Harris said.
The team also proposes to put a vegetated roof above the kindergarten classrooms that can hold about an inch of rainfall and acts as another means to slow down water runoff, he said.
After a summer experiment - deemed successful by BART officials and bike advocates - in which the regional rail transit system abandoned its bike ban during commute hours on five Fridays, BART is preparing for a second test. During March 18-22, bikes will be allowed in BART stations and aboard all trains - where there's room - all day and night.
In addition to the bikes-on-board test, BART is also reconfiguring its rail cars to make more room for bikes, along with wheelchairs, luggage, strollers and standing riders, near train doors, and has plans to install more secure parking spots for bikes at stations, establish bike waiting areas at crowded stations, provide real-time information on train crowding, and participate in a regional bike-sharing plan.
Along with those improvements, BART will also launch campaigns on bike etiquette, keep bikes off of escalators, and encourage bicyclists to use the Montgomery Station instead of Embarcadero, which has narrower platforms and worse commute-hour crowding.
"We're trying to attract new riders who ride bikes," said Tom Radulovich, president of the Board of Directors.Which drycabinets is right for you? "We also want to encourage riders who drive to cycle,Researchers at the Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology have developed an buymosaic. and we want to accommodate those riders who already cycle."
