A plan to expand Jeremy Ranch Elementary School has been years in the making. That took a big step forward when Summit County voters approved a $79 million bond last year to help pay for facilities upgrades at several campuses in the school district.
More than $13 million of that was designated for Jeremy Ranch, to add preschool facilities and community space to the campus. The district broke ground this spring on the project.
But construction was halted last week when Summit County issued a notice of violation and a stop work order to the district. Workers were sent home and equipment is now sitting idle.
According to Summit County Community Development Director Pat Putt, construction isn’t likely to resume until end of August or beginning of September at the earliest.
