The following proposal was approved at a Church business meeting on January 21, 2007.

1. The Long Range Planning Committee recommends that the Church make the following improvements to its existing buildings:

A. In the Tucker-Jones (B) building install an elevator with an elevated walkway to C and D buildings, install two restrooms on the second floor, move permanent walls between large rooms upstairs to create assembly/fellowship space for larger groups.

B. In the Pegg (C) Building remove walls, elevate ceilings on the east side of the second floor and create large meeting/fellowship space for youth groups.

C. In the Medearis (D) Building convert the D100 space additional preschool classrooms and a reception area for preschoolers with a small kitchen, change entrances to the second floor such that it is accessible without entering preschool space. A new main entrance will be created on the north side of the building. In the unused space between D and C buildings create a playground for toddlers.

D. In the Worship Center (Nixon or A) building add an elevator at the north end of the foyer and above the one story section of the storage room, create additional storage on the second floor.

2. The Long Range Planning Committee recommends that we add to the present facilities by:

A. Build a new Preschool and Children’s Ministry Building of approximately 21,000 sq. ft. featuring state of the art facilities, with multipurpose rooms and kitchen on the second floor, with three playgrounds adjacent to the building.

B. Develop the site with new landscaping and walks to accommodate the traffic flow and enhance the experience of being on campus.

3. The Long Range Planning Committee recommends that the Church elect a Building Committee to work with architects, and other consultants as needed to complete the planning and oversee the construction of the above improvements. The Leadership Enlistment Committee would be responsible to elect the Building Committee with input from staff and the Long Range Planning Committee.

4. The Long Range Planning Committee recommends the Church elect a “Building For Tomorrow” Capital Gifts Campaign Committee to lead the church to provide funding for the building improvement projects listed above as well as a 10% contribution to “Glocal” Ministry projects. Those to be elected are:

Campaign Chairman—Ron Ellis
Promotion Director—Mark Wyatt
Administrative Assistant—Laura Carrasco
Invitation Directors—Lucy Shearer and Susan Smith
Leadership Commitment Director—Darrel Gray
Prayer Directors—Bill & Irma Harper
Home Fellowship Director—Phil Shaw

Projected Costs for the above projects are:

Elevators and remodel work for A, B, C, D, $1,500,000
Construction of E $4,500,000
"Glocal" Ministry Projects $ 600,000
Total $6,600,000

5. The Long Range Planning Committee recommends that a Task Force be appointed by the Leadership Enlistment Committee to oversee the distribution of the funds designated for "Glocal" Ministry Projects. This task force would work closely with staff and the Mission Development Committee to ensure that the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering, the S. G. Posey California Mission Offering and the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering are maintained at current levels. They would consider requests to fund local, state and international projects as funds become available through the Building for Tomorrow Campaign.
