June 2, 2015 School Board Meeting Agenda and Location

The Agenda has been set for the Tuesday, June 2, 2015 School Board Meeting which will be held at 7 PM at the Windham Town Hall.  (Please note the change in location.)

Opening remarks are expected to include an update by Business Administrator Adam Steel on Option 2 and specifically he will be reporting on the consultation that was had with architects, site/civil, structural and MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) engineers, the Fire Department, Administrators, School Board members, and Facilities Committee representatives.  

Mr. Steel is requesting $87,500 to contract with Eckman Construction, Lavallee Brensinger, and Tighe & Bond for the purpose of developing a conceptual site plan, a code-compliant conceptual building design, and a project budget for the proposed GBS renovation/addition and the Middle School renovation.  

Some of the information that can be found in the Agenda Packet for the 6/2 meeting is:

• The target budget for the project is $19.8 million.
  
• The site work is being developed under the assumption that the District will purchase the land adjacent to Golden Brook School.
  
• The renovations to the Middle School are limited to the main entrance staircase and one science lab and one consumer science lab.

If the initial report to authorize further work/studies is approved by the School Board on June 2, 2015, the group of experts will work with the District and the Facilities Committee to complete the objectives with a target reporting date of September 1, 2015.
