changes to outside improvements are proposed. The first two floors ofthe
building would be used for classrooms and improved to meet fire and building
codes. Access to the site would stay the same. Critical areas on-site are steep
slopes, seismic hazards, the Cedar River (shoreline of the state) and the
floodplain ofthe Cedar River. The proposed internal tenant improvements
include added walls, doors, and bathroom facility.
