Interest Settles On Plan For U-Driveway At New Malibu Campus
Written by 991KBU on May 1, 2019
Plans for the new Malibu high school design go back for public review tonight.
A town hall style meeting will be held at the one Cabrillo elementary school cafeteria at six.
Four different campus plans were presented and discussed last week.
The district says those in attendance expressed the most interest in a plan that would separate middle and high schools with a performing arts center to be placed in between.
Parking and the central driveway in the middle of the campus … would be eliminated.
A large U-shaped drop-off quad would be placed in the center of the campus … which people lauded for the potential to reduce traffic along Morning View Drive.
The district is still in the preliminary concept plan stage.
And the architects want to hear from the public tonight.
The Malibu Middle School and High School Campus Plan will guide the removal of old buildings and the construction of the new campus over the next 6-8 years.
The campus plan architects should have a final concept … or at least some concept options …. this fall.
Construction is already under way on campus for a new Middle School building with 12 classrooms, planned to open in August 2019 and a combined administration, library and science lab / classroom building … planned to open in the fall of 2020.
