Please note the planning conceptual estimate for the High School Construction Project. Particuliar attention should be given to the line item estimate for Furniture, Fixtures Equipment and Site Development ($1,500,000) & ISDS (septic system) Costs (($1,000,000)). Also, please note the cost estimate allocated for work on the "A" Bldg.
Question: Why was the furniture budget reduced to $500,000, over $1,000,000, in the final budget?
Question: Why did the Town Council have to reallocate $1,000,000 from the school capital reserve fund for the septic system?
Question: Why did the Town Council cut the recommended project funding by $2,000,000? (from $35,000,000 to $33,000,000).
These are but a few on the many questions that I will address in the very near future.
