Start of the Terrace Level Build Out

Terrace Level Build-Out Begins

The church building was constructed in 2006, with a full, unfinished basement below the sanctuary and offices, and with future plans to finish the lower level as funds became available. For the past two years, the church has been raising money to finish the basement, and the Build-Out Team has been developing final plans. The plans have been divided into three phases.

In the fall of 2008, the membership voted to begin Phase I of the build-out. This phase includes framing the basement for classrooms, a fellowship room, Phase I Build Out Plans-Click to Enlargebathrooms and a kitchen. Rough-in work for plumbing and electrical equipment is included in this phase. An elevator will be installed for handicap access to the basement. Studio D Associates was chosen as the builder, and a contract was signed for $178,790.

Actual construction work began on Phase I of the build-out in
mid-January 2009.
