11/20/11 1
AGENDA / OVERVIEW
• Review of Sacred Spaces Task Force Findings– Three Facility Options– “Unified Modules”– Module pricing from Hollister Construction
• Implications from a financial standpoint• What about the “other” factors?• Next Steps - Getting to a decision

Role of Sacred Spaces Task Force
• 9 Member Team; Fall 2010 – Summer 2011• Impartial - No agenda – “Just the facts…”• Explore 3 options• Move from the 10,000 foot view to 1,000 feet
11/20/11 3
The Three Options
• Option 1 – “Stay and renovate”• Option 2 – “Buy raw land and build from scratch”• Option 3 – “Buy an existing building and
re-purpose for church use”
• For ease of comparison, SSTF developed specifications for “Unified Modules”

Unified Building Module Concept
As much as possible, provide “apples to apples” comparisons for each option. Key components:•The Sanctuary – seating for up to 450•The “church basement”, i.e., public gathering space and large kitchen facility•RE and Admin Building - ~10,000 s.f. total•Key Infrastructure -Lobby, restrooms, fire stairwells and elevators

Implications of Financial Information
Option 2 (Raw Land) cannot be phased and @ $3.7 million (net) is probably financially unfeasible.
Option 3 (Repurpose) most likely requires a 5 – 10 mile Relocation to capitalize on lower property values – see next slide.
Option 1 - the crucial repairs are so expensive that any expansion might need to be deferred for a significant period of time.
11/20/11 10
Cost of Option 3 is LOCATION Dependent – Compare the Following:
• 13 Emory Ave. – North-Western Randolph – 25,000 SF Office Building– Acquisition cost is $1.5 million– Total estimated gross cost is $3.25 million
• 300 Webro – Parsippany– 34,000 SF Warehouse Building– Acquisition cost is $3+ million– Total estimated gross cost is $4.5 million

Membership By Zip Code

Relocation probably means North and West off the I-80 corridor
• Are there benefits to be gained?• What are the ‘costs’?• What do the demographics suggest?• Where is our membership located now?• Where will our future members come from?• How are drive times affected?

A Final Decision is Highly Nuanced “What else would you need to have/consider in order to make an informed decision”?Total Cost Total Time Aesthetics of BuildingsGrounds Accessibility & Safety Ease of Funding “Flow” and layout of space Legal approvals Neighborhood resistanceTransactional complexity Availability of suitable property “Green”
Efficient energy use Cost of maintenance Incorporates “green” building features Contributes to landfill
Location Area demographics Overlap with SummitEffect on current membership drive times Good highway

A Word about the Capital Campaign
• Regardless of the option we select, a capital campaign will be required
• “Best practices” = every ten years• We are about 20 years overdue!• The Board is beginning the investigative phase
now• Dovetail fund raising with facilities decision
11/20/11 15
What’s Next• Sacred Conversations between now and April.
1. Team to assemble and explore factors with congregational input.
2. Expand analysis of Options 1 and 3 – timing, phasing.3. Team builds range of options based on all factors and potential
size range of Capital Campaign.
• Board to bring a vote before the congregation – Earliest in June, latest in October– Vote is to affirm direction and charter a financial feasibility
study for capital campaign. – Board will not be seeking spending authorization at this time.

• Now is the time for us to make another brave decision about our future

community• 50 years from now, it will be your legacy
