When a school moves in or out of a building temporarily or permanently, there is typically a grace period restricting community use. The standard time for a moratorium on community use after moving to another facility, new construction or not, or for use of an addition to a building, is approximately 6 to 12 months. However, community use may not begin in a newly constructed facility until such time the Board of Education has signed off on all punch-list items and voted to accept the facility at a public Board meeting.
