The Board of Selectmen and the School Committee are committed to developing a prioritized plan to address Town and School building needs over time. The two elected bodies have funded parallel studies of existing conditions in all Town and School buildings. The study of school buildings was conducted by Habeeb and Associates Architects, and the study of town buildings was conducted by Gorman Richardson Lewis Architects. These completed studies have now been reviewed by the Permanent Building Committee.
On Tuesday May 15th, at a Joint Meeting of the Board of Selectmen and School Committee, the Permanent Building Committee will present an overview of the findings of these two studies. The School Committee and Board of Selectmen will ask questions about the study findings, and there will be an opportunity for members of the public to ask questions as well. The time and location of this presentation has not yet been finalized, but Town and School leaders encourage interested citizens to reserve the date in their calendars. When final details are available, they will be publicized.
Following this initial presentation on the existing conditions in our buildings, the two boards will schedule a Joint Working Session with the goal of prioritizing facilities projects. When the date, time and location of that Working Session is determined, that information will be publicized as well.
