Greendale Township Hall
Spicer Group provided inspection and design services for renovations of the former Pleasantview Elementary School, built in 1958, into a new township hall. To achieve this vision, the Township applied for USDA grants as well as low-interest loans. Spicer worked with Adrin Wagner of the USDA to gain approval of the preliminary application and preliminary building drawings showing the building design and improvements that were required to move on to the final application.
After the USDA application was approved, Spicer completed the construction documents, assisted with bidding and provided construction administration services through project completion. The adaptive reuse project included an entirely new geothermal heating and cooling roof design, new windows, case work, color selections and incorporated value engineering principles to keep costs down. The Township Hall now has a remodeled board room with a compact kitchen, office space, record storage space, and an area for Township officials to hold office hours. Two rooms have been reconstructed to accommodate emergency vehicles in two garage bays. Only one room was left unfinished to allow for future growth of emergency services.
