Summary

Resources subcommittee discussed modular classroom timing (Nauset will keep modulars through October), a possible $30,000 site/soil study by consultant Donna Dinesco, and coordinating Dinesco's MSBA expertise with modular feasibility work; members asked administration to seek a price quote and consider procurement steps.

Members of the Resources and Capital Planning Subcommittee discussed modular classroom options after Nauset Public Schools said existing modulars could remain available through approximately October. The subcommittee reviewed a $30,000 proposal from consultant Donna Dinesco for a site and soil/location study to identify feasible modular locations and clarify information that city councilors and the committee have requested.

Committee members debated pros and cons: the study would provide technical information useful for short-term modular placement and for MSBA feasibility work, but it would require funding and likely procurement steps. Members asked administration to invite Dinesco to a subcommittee meeting (target: June 11) to present what would be covered by a $30,000 study and to provide a price quote; members also discussed the possibility of expanding her role to assist with MSBA work.

No final procurement decision was made; subcommittee will continue to evaluate modular timing, MSBA steps and whether to commission an outside site study.
