Oakmont is completing an initial assessment of the Berger Facility to better understand current conditions, identify improvement opportunities, and support long-term planning. This phase is focused on evaluation and coordination only, there is no construction underway and no financial commitments have been made as part of the assessment.
Below you can find more information regarding timelines, updates, and contact information if you have any questions.
The initial assessment of the Berger Facility, conducted by Energy Systems Group (ESG), has concluded. The purpose of this phase was to evaluate current facility conditions, review key infrastructure needs, and identify potential improvement opportunities.
This assessment included a feasibility review, analysis of historical utility data, and on-site walkthroughs. The work completed so far is planning-focused only—no construction has started, and no financial commitments have been made as part of this phase.
Work is now underway to refine ESG’s findings and prepare the analysis for handoff to the Oakmont Village Association (OVA). We expect to receive the initial findings package during the first week of February.
Looking ahead, the Association has a roadmap through March. That phase is expected to conclude with a development review outlining a proposed scope of work and preliminary pricing for Board consideration. Any steps beyond that would involve engineering, permitting, and coordination with Berger Facility user groups to establish an appropriate timeline based on the final scope.

This is a structured review of the Berger Facility to understand current conditions, identify improvement opportunities, and support future planning. The goal is to develop clear options for next steps, including scope, priorities, and potential cost ranges.
No. The work completed so far is evaluation and planning only. No construction has started and there are no financial commitments tied to the initial assessment phase.
The Berger Center was prioritized due to the planned replacement of its boiler and chiller systems within the next year. The assessment also includes other parts of the facility to evaluate compliance with fire codes, ADA accessibility standards, and other regulatory requirements.
ESG completed a feasibility review, analyzed historical utility data, and performed on-site walkthroughs. Their work supports recommendations and planning options for OVA.
The consultant work is expected to result in a written report that includes:
Findings from the facility assessment
Cost estimates for necessary upgrades
Replacement options for mechanical systems
Recommendations for achieving regulatory compliance
ESG is refining the findings and preparing the information for handoff to OVA. The first findings package is expected during the first week of February. From there, OVA plans to move through a roadmap into March to develop scope and pricing for Board consideration.
In parallel, the Reserve Study is being reviewed to identify additional projects scheduled for the coming year. The goal is to coordinate related work where possible—maximizing efficiency, minimizing disruption, and reducing overall costs.
Once the assessment and development review are complete, a full set of recommendations and a proposed implementation timeline will be shared with the community and the Board. Any future schedule will depend on the final scope, permitting, and coordination with facility user groups.
