Westerly school building subcommittee approves Dec. 11 minutes and contractor payments totaling $1.305 million
Summary
The Westerly Public School building subcommittee approved the Dec. 11 meeting minutes and a batch of contractor invoices for work at Dunn's Corner, Springbrook and State Street elementary projects, covering payments that together total $1,305,213.40.
The Westerly Public School building subcommittee on Jan. 8 approved the Dec. 11 meeting minutes and a series of contractor invoices for ongoing construction at three elementary school projects, with the payments totaling $1,305,213.40.
The approved payments included: Tower Construction application for payment No. 6 for Dunn's Corner and Springbrook Elementary Schools through Dec. 31, 2024, for $369,110.15; OMG Industries application for payment No. 4 for State Street Elementary School through Dec. 31, 2024, for $865,894.63; DBVW invoice No. 2318-19 for professional services for Dunn's Corner and Springbrook for $30,875.22; Prime Consulting testing and inspection invoices for the three schools totaling $17,853.40 (State Street $13,502.00; Springbrook $2,797.60; Dunn's Corner $1,553.80); and Downs Construction Company invoice No. 16 for OPM services in December for $21,480.00.
The chair read each invoice aloud, the committee moved and seconded each item, and members responded “Aye.” No members voiced opposition on the recorded items. When the Dec. 11 minutes were presented for approval several members stated they needed to abstain; the transcript records abstentions but does not identify which members formally recorded those abstentions.
Why it matters: These payments fund currently active construction and third-party testing, which the subcommittee has flagged as critical to keeping the three projects on schedule for 2025 milestones.
The subcommittee also noted there were no public comments and moved on to project and procurement updates for the three schools.
