Kenton County School District Support Operations Center

The Kenton County Board of Education selected GRW to provide architectural and engineering services for the district new transportation and support facility. The approximately 80,578 SF structure supports staff and operations for these critical district functions: transportation, maintenance, technology, and support operations. 

Spaces encompass offices and conference rooms for the transportation lot, garage with eight drive-through bays and offices for support staff, a food service area, technology area with 10 offices and a conference room, a network operations center (NOC), specialized spaces (image room, bug rooms), warehouse area, maintenance/operations shop and offices, covered parking, and numerous other items.

GRW’s site development services included the design for over 2,300 LF of storm pipe ranging in size from 6” roof drains to 24” storm sewer capturing water from the site, and conveying it to a new detention basin. The stormwater was captured using roof drains, curb box inlets, drop box inlets, and curb cuts. The proposed detention basin bottom had multiple trenches with perforated pipe and clean #57 stone which fed the outlet structure that could control the outflow to achieve water quality requirements. It also had larger openings at higher elevations along the riser to maximize storage in the basin and provide flood control.
