Renovation and addition to an educational facility in Moberly, Missouri. Completed plans call for the renovation of a 8,184-square-foot educational facility; and for the addition of a 3,426-square-foot educational facility.

https://moberlymonitor.com/stories/macc-approves-bid-to-build-new-dorm,2876 Feb 02, 2022 MACC's board of trustees approved a proposal for the building of a new dormitory on its Moberly campus. During its meeting Monday night, the board approved the old bookstore building, that is also currently serving as a store/warehouse, be converted to a new dormitory to house the new incoming baseball and softball players for MACC's inaugural season. "Our existing dorm right now is where our men and women basketball teams reside," Dr. Jeff Lashley, president of MACC, said. "We have some additional beds there for students. So it is always full. With starting (baseball and softball) programs, we needed to have space for these student-athletes to live on campus and have the environment we want." The campus was looking to give some use to the old bookstore building that went vacant when the college relocated the bookstore. The new building will be constructed by Bleigh Construction Company from Hannibal. Bleigh Construction won the bid for $3,050,000. Construction will include the complete renovation to the interior and exterior of the current building and construction of an additional 3,426 square feet on the south end of the building. "We have had the building which is our old bookstore and a warehouse that has been vacant for awhile, since we have done remodeling and moved the bookstore to a different location on campus," Lashley said. "The stuff that is in the warehouse will be relocated, so we have that structure that we are going to remodel. It will have 48 beds. Then, we are going to do an addition of the side and that will be 24 beds. We are going to do that in two phases. So, this fall when the players for the two new programs are here, there will be dorm space for them. Once we get the addition done, we will have additional space for other students that want to live on campus. Ultimately, the goal behind this is to reenergize of the campus here in Moberly. It is the direction that we wanted to go and we just needed to have more beds available to pull it off. It was part of our strategic thinking when we started these two new sports programs as they carry larger teams than our basketball programs do, so we need more living space for them." Lashley anticipates phase one of the project to be completed and in place for August. Phase two is scheduled to be ready in January 2023. _________________________________________________________ Bids are invited upon the items and quantities of work as follows: Construction of a new MACC Dorm facility consisting of an 8,184 SF renovation and 3,426 SF addition.
