At the Regular Board Meeting on Monday, February 26, 2024, the Durham Catholic District School Board approved the Long-Term Accommodation Plan 2022-2026.
Each year staff submit the Long-Term Accommodation Plan (LTAP) to the Board of Trustees for approval. The LTAP covers a five-year period and summarizes the Board’s planned activities with respect to the acquisition and disposition of school property, planned new capital construction or expansion, major program or boundary changes, and proposed accommodation reviews to be conducted as outlined in Board Policy PO-430 Pupil Accommodation Review.
The LTAP document establishes a set of guiding principles and presents a series of actions to be committed to by the Board in the first year of the plan (subject to any Board of Trustee or Ministry approvals). The list of additional actions proposed in years two to five of the plan are approved in principle and are approved by the Board of Trustees in the respective subsequent years of the plan.
Project may be subject to Ministry approval and are identified as such, within the plan and include the desired timelines. It is recognized that actions that are dependent on Ministry approvals and funding may not always occur in the year(s) proposed and may be subject to reevaluation based on funding, approvals or both.
The 2024-2028 LTAP includes the Boards enrolment projections, changes to the built capacity in each year, addresses temporary accommodation and partnerships that the Board has entered into for the use of space. The list of completed actions from the previous LTAP reports is included in the document.
