These areas of space need are also to support growth in afterschool, preschool and <br /> camp programming. <br /> The Board appropriated funds for the construction and operation of this project within its <br /> FY2015-20 Capital Investment Plan (CIP). The Board also authorized the Sportsplex <br /> mezzanine project, appropriated in FY2014-19 CIP, to be combined within the field house for <br /> efficiencies in operation and cost. <br /> On September 15, 2015 the Board approved a set of criteria supporting the Design-Build <br /> method of capital project delivery (authorized by the North Carolina General Assembly in 2013), <br /> as well as its application with the Sportsplex Field House project. <br />
