NEEDS AND OPPORTUNITIES

CH ALLEN GES
• Current house constructed in 1975
• Poor design has led to continual water damage
• ADA issues (parking, ramps, no elevator)
• Inadequate dining/chapter room space
• Inadequate number of bedrooms
• Stairs/restrooms do not meet building codes
• Dated outside appearance
• Ongoing maintenance costs of short-term fixes
• Deteriorating infrastructure, plumbing systems, etc.
"Since all the stairwells would have to be removed and rebuilt, existing electrical/mechanical and plumbing reconfigured/replaced,
and a new addition constructed at a different elevation, AIC feels that it is more cost effective to construct a new building."
– 2005 recommendation from Ai Collaborative's (AIC) Mike Puckett '85
"A new house would mean everything to the Alpha Gamma Chapter. It would increase recruitment
and create a better environment for every brother living in the house."
– Cash Jackson, Undergraduate Brother
