Moorpark College will hold a groundbreaking ceremony on Tuesday, March 2, at 3:00 p.m. for its EATM Complex located at 7075 Campus Road in Moorpark.
Upon completion, the EATM Complex will consist of a two-story, 12,400 square foot building with classrooms, offices, and an auditorium facility to be used mainly by EATM students and
replace modular facilities that have been utilized since the inception of the EATM program. The Complex has been designed to deviate somewhat from standard campus buildings because of the nature of its use, not only for students, but also for public access to the Zoo. The facility will house two classrooms, one vet lab, a 100-seat auditorium, and faculty/staff offices. A bus unloading area is being installed to permit a drop-off area for local school children who visit the
facility. Funding for this project is being provided through Measure S Bond funds, and the project team includes Steven Ehrlich Architects, construction manager Heery International, and general contractor Vratsinas Construction Company. Occupancy is tentatively scheduled for April 2011.
The groundbreaking ceremony will include the Ventura County Community College District Board of Trustees, Chancellor, Moorpark College President, employees, and students. The ceremony is open to the public, and free parking is available. |
