What is the next step?  I assume they have to have final approval at the next meeting in October before ground breaking?

From what I gather there are a ton of steps, the BOT just gave the green light (and someone please correct me if I'm wrong, because i'm not 100% on this) to move forward with this "package" deal. So I think that means we get our big check for the $12mil +/- so that we can go to the bond market and get all the money we need to build it…right?

We don't have the cash in hand as of today but this is the first big step in the RIGHT direction.

Either way, I'm going to start digging, with Jab!!

It's all about the bond…….

That will make the decision alot easier…but the Exec Comm. has to choose one way or the other given the options presented after that factor is made known…

Just a thought, but how about the residents of Housing Phase II??

I live within 1.25 miles of campus (directly to the east), and hear the jets each and every day…ahh, the wake up alarm for free…

Anyway, interested to know if they will put in "hotel glass" to buffer that…because, check out just how close they will be to the run way (blue line):

WOW!
Good observation!
Hurricane proof windows can isolate noise really well.
What about that empty lot behind the phase II apts?
Does that belong to FAU?
