Sec. 34-205 of the Illinois School Code provides that a school district shall publish its space utilization standards on its website. Those standards shall include| among other things| (1) the method by which design capacity is calculated| (2) the method to determine efficient use of a school building| (3) the rate of utilization| and (4) the standards for overcrowding and underutilization. I have been unable to find this information on the District #86 website| and my request for assistance has met with no response. Accordingly| please provide (1) a copy of an email dated 2/3/2020 to the Superintendent with Subject: Request for Information Location| (2) any ensuing correspondence referencing that request| and (3) records evidencing the existence of published District #86 space utilization standards that are compliant with the referenced Illinois School Code provision| whether on the website or elsewhere| so that I can read (1) “the method to determine efficient use of a school building” and (2) “the standards for overcrowding and underutilization.” A reply referencing existing Building Capacity and Space Utilization Reports| created by third parties as information for Board of Education review| would not be responsive to this request since these reports not only lack the specificity required under Sec. 34-205 of the Illinois School Code but also do not constitute actions of District #86 to adopt space utilization standards to begin with. |
