Project Design

This project started with a comprehensive sustainability initiative, inBYLT designed and implemented various efficiency improvements and solar installations. Over a nine-month span, the project encompassed more than 20 city-owned buildings selected for deferred maintenance, efficiency improvements, and/or solar installations. The scope included diverse structures, ranging from municipal offices to recreational facilities. The planning and execution aimed not only at harnessing renewable energy but also at transforming some buildings into net-zero energy structures—anticipated to generate more solar energy annually than they consume.

inBYLT was commissioned to develop a strategic long-term plan for the District, starting with a Facility Assessment and Master Plan. The assessment pinpointed urgent needs, leading to immediate actions like replacing the High School's boilers and water main. Subsequent priority projects included renovations of existing facilities, building additions, safety and security measures, site improvements, and new athletic facilities.

This project involved consolidating the district’s Elementary and High Schools into a single K–12 campus. It includes a 20,000-square-foot addition to the existing high school, featuring new high school classrooms, a gymnasium, fitness center, wrestling room, and outdoor athletic spaces. The classrooms are designed with state-of-the-art science, career, and technical education spaces. Additionally, 12,000 square feet of an existing wing of the high school will be completely renovated to accommodate elementary classrooms and support spaces, allowing for a seamless transition of the elementary program into the building.

This consolidation not only eliminates deferred maintenance but also delivers long-term operational and staffing efficiencies through shared resources and reduced facility costs.

inBYLT successfully completed the design and renovation of the Government Center and Environmental Services Center, along with the new construction of a Public Works facility. The Government Center renovation included a full HVAC replacement and interior upgrades to enhance functionality and energy efficiency. The Environmental Services Center received mechanical system improvements and renovations to restrooms, office space, and storage areas, creating a more modern and efficient workspace.

inBYLT conducted a comprehensive Facilities Condition Assessment for Cedar Mountain Schools to evaluate the current state of their buildings and develop a strategic plan for necessary upgrades. Based on the findings, the district identified several immediate priorities for improvement.

The resulting project includes comprehensive renovations of both the high school and elementary school facilities. Major upgrades at both sites include new HVAC systems with dehumidification, window replacements, exterior improvements, roof replacements, and interior renovations featuring new casework, ceilings, and restrooms—all designed to create a more functional and welcoming environment for students and staff. In addition, the project incorporates an advanced geothermal system to maximize long-term energy savings. Significant government funding was secured to help support the cost of these improvements, further enhancing the project’s overall value to the district.

inBYLT was commissioned by the District to spearhead a visionary long-range strategic plan, where we designed and managed the critical replacement of the High School boiler plant and HVAC systems at both the Middle and High Schools. In addition, inBYLT's scope included innovative enhancements like dehumidification systems, setting the stage for future educational space repurposing, security enhancements, renovations to the district office and athletic facility improvements.

This project involved the design and renovation for efficiency enhancements of the Civic Plaza, along with citywide improvements to reduce energy consumption. Upgrades included LED lighting retrofits, building envelope enhancements, advanced control system upgrades, boiler additions, HVAC modifications, and well pump efficiency measures. Additionally, the City subscribed to a solar garden, offsetting a significant portion of its annual electricity usage.

inBYLT successfully designed and completed a district-wide project that included the design and installation of new centralized HVAC systems for the middle school, natatorium, and sports center. Additionally, we designed and installed 2 megawatts of solar PV across six district locations. Other energy efficiency upgrades included LED lighting throughout the district and the installation of a new refrigeration plant.

The Riverview Ice House project included the design and renovation of the entire facility. inBYLT replaced two ice rink floors, installed a new ammonia refrigeration system, and renovated the lobby and locker rooms. This was a Design-Build project, with inBYLT overseeing all design, site construction activities, site safety, quality assurance, project administration, and startup; delivering a turnkey project.
