The decision to renovate and reopen Fifth Avenue school will fall to the Decatur City Commission next month.
The city has such power over the schools because it owns all of the district buildings, including the shuttered elementary school that the district wants to turn into a new academy for fourth and fifth graders.
As owners, it will be up to the city to endorse the district’s plan by either borrowing the $8 to $10 million needed for the renovation itself, or granting a lease-purchase to the district to seek lending on its own.
Either way, the district plans to pay for the project using its share of sales taxes – about $13 million over five years – which it uses for similar projects such as an early childhood education center.
