Help us make up for the shortfall in church offertory by giving online at stakb.org/GiveNow

Dear St. Agnes Community,

As you know, we are underway with several construction projects, including the Pre-K building for the Academy & the Building with JOY project.

We would like to provide you with an update on the projects.

FUNDRAISING

• Due to Covid-19, Fundraising for the Building with JOY project was put on hold for several months. However, due to the tax benefits for 2020 provided by the new CARES Act, we are again actively contacting our parishioners to take advantage of this great opportunity in which individuals can deduct up to 100% of Adjusted Gross Income and corporations up to 25% of taxable income.
• The pledged amount is currently at $16MM, which is 88% of our goal. We are grateful that all pledges are coming in on time.

ARCHITECTURAL PLANS

• The entire site plan has been finalized.
• The Pre-K plan has also been finalized.
• The Building with JOY plans, including the church, multi-purpose building, perimeter road & plaza, are at more than 50% of completion.

APPROVALS & PERMITS

• The Village of Key Biscayne fully approved the site plan at their meeting on 4/28/20.
• The Pre-K building architectural plans have been submitted to the Village for permitting.
• Once the Building with JOY architectural plans are finalized, we will need to submit them for permitting.

CONSTRUCTION

• Three construction companies are in the process of formalizing their bids to be submitted by early September for review and selection of a project contractor based on the current completion level of the architectural plans.
• The project will be done in phases to minimize disruption.
• Phase 1 of construction will be the Pre-K building and start approximately Q4 2020.
• Phase 2 would be the civil work including the perimeter road, drainage, plumbing and parking.
• Phase 3 includes the construction of the multi-purpose building/gymnasium & the church.
• Phase 4 includes the demolition of the current church and building the plaza.

We will keep updating you as things evolve.
