St. Michael’s has embarked on a project to envision a new Site Master Plan, our first since 2008.
The Plan:
· Capture our congregation’s dreams for our campus
· Address unmet facility-use needs of ministries and parishioners
· Be the result of an inclusive process
· Give the Property Committee a parish-approved framework for sequencing and obtaining funding for capital projects
Once the Site Master Plan is approved, we will begin a Feasibility Study and Capital Campaign to determine how much we can fund, and to prioritize the capital projects. With priorities and committed funds in hand, we can begin Detailed Design and Construction of the first building project.

What's New?
Update as of February 6, 2026
Where We Are Now: The “Dream” Phase
We are currently in the Dream phase, imagining how our buildings and spaces might better support parish life and ministry.
-
Following extensive parish listening in Fall 2025, the Plan for the Future Committee has been working with an architect to translate those hopes and needs into a draft Site Master Plan.
-
The congregation is now reviewing early concept designs.
-
Based on parish feedback, the architect and committee will continue refining these options, with the goal of presenting a final Plan in late April 2026.
What the Draft Plan Includes
To fully address the needs expressed by our ministries, the early draft plan envisions several new or reimagined spaces, including:
-
A new Food Pantry
-
A new Landing
-
A new Parish Hall
-
A new All Angels Episcopal Day School
-
A nursery located near the worship space
-
ADA-accessible, family, and gender‑neutral restrooms
-
A new chapel
Next Considerations
This proposed scope represents a significant amount of demolition and construction. Any work would be phased over time, as priorities are clarified and funding is identified.
What's Next?
After the Plan Is Presented in April 2026
Once the Site Master Plan is presented, the next steps are expected to include the following:
-
The Plan for the Future Committee will likely conclude its work.
-
Planning will begin for a Feasibility Study and, if appropriate, a Capital Campaign.
-
Detailed design and construction would move forward only after parish priorities are confirmed and a clear understanding of funding capacity is established.
FAQ's
read through these important FAQ's
Why are we doing a Site Master plan?
- Allows for thoughtful planning for major construction - Helps avoid wasteful rework. - Allows proper phasing of big projects. - Helps engage the full parish. - Gives the Property Committee a parish approved framework for sequencing and obtaining funding for capital projects.
What are the benefits of the new campus layout?
- Cars can enter at any point and travel the length of the campus without having to get back on Montano. - We can Walk across campus using green spaces and away from the street. - School parents and Food Pantry clients have easier access, particularly on Tuesdays. - All buildings will be easier to get to.
Will there be enough parking?
- The new design reduces the number of spaces. However, current parking lots are very rarely full. - The City may be reducing the design requirements for parking spaces per attendee.
How much will all this cost? How much can we afford?
- The Site Master Plan will show high-level rough estimates for each piece. - The upcoming Feasibility Study and Capital Campaign will determine how much we can afford right now. - St. Michael will research and apply for grants, which most likely would have a greater impact on the Food Pantry and School. We expect that the St. Michael's community and the School will need to be the primary sources of capital funding. - Construction will be broken into chunks based on what we can afford.
Which construction chunk would we start with, and how do we decide?
- This will be a phased project over multiple years, perhaps 7 to 10. - For context, our 2008 Master Plan guided construction of the Ministry Complex and Pavilion, but was never completed. - Possible future phases, in no particular order, would be: Casa San Miguel, AAED School, Parish Hall, Church. - The Architect will recommend an order of phases. - We at St. Michael's will decide on phases and timeline based on our ability to fund.
