The JCC, knowing it would have the property for many years, could then launch a fund-raising drive to build a new community center to replace Terman. Stanford has agreed to build a new headquarters building for the district to the east of its current location on the Churchill site. This is far from a perfect solution, and everyone involved knows this. A good response is that the JCC has seven years left on its lease, and the JCC could fight its eviction in court, delaying the district's plans to reoccupy Terman. We don't know.
Nobody knows for sure.
These questions need to be discussed further, and we're glad to see the board's willingness to take this issue to the public. This proposal shows a great deal of creativity. And it may be our best alternative. But if you have a better idea, suggest it now. The board needs to find more room before class sizes become unmanageably large.
