Ordean is impossible and in fact a more careful check of its buildable space shows that rather than 26 acres (still far below the state&#8217;s guidelines)  there are only 13 buildable acres. <\/p>\n<p>By the way the School District&#8217;s graphic leaves the vital start information out which was part of the District&#8217;s schedule.
