Town of Dedham Facilities Assessment and Master Plan 2026-2036
This document, Volume 1 of the Dedham Town Wide Facilities Assessment and Master Plan, serves as a comprehensive study of 24 municipal and school facilities. It aims to establish an evidence-based understanding of building age, physical condition, life safety compliance, and deferred maintenance. Key findings highlight the need to address active life safety deficiencies and advance replacement decisions for the oldest buildings, using metrics such as the Facilities Condition Index (FCI) and Educational Adequacy Index (EAI) to prioritize capital improvements and long-term visions.
