The development entails the demolition of the existing school building that was formally El Rio Elementary School, dividing the 10.5-acre property into two separate parcels. Buildings on both lots, will not reach over 38 feet. The smaller, 1.12-acre parcel will contain an office building, intended for the relocation of Rio School District administrative offices. It will be two stories tall, with 15,100 square feet of space, and 61 standard parking spaces.
