Finance working group approves September invoices and contract amendment for photovoltaic services
Summary
The committee’s finance working group approved invoice package 14 totaling $118,797.35 for September and approved contract amendment No. 1 with Perkins and Will for $20,800 to add photovoltaic services; the working group also agreed to use email for approvals of small change orders between meetings.
The Salem Public Schools project finance working group met Tuesday and approved the September invoice package and a contract amendment to advance photovoltaic services for the schematic design phase.
"The finance working group met on Tuesday, approving invoice package 14 for September 2025. Answer advisory, $30,482.50. Perkins and Will, $88,314.85. A total of $118,797.35," Anthony Delaney reported during the Oct. 16 committee meeting. The group also approved contract amendment No. 1 for Perkins and Will for $20,800 (the amendment expands Perkins and Will’s scope to include photovoltaic services).
The working group agreed to permit small change orders to be vetted and approved by email between full committee meetings, a procedural change intended to speed routine decisions as the project moves into a busier phase of estimating and submittal work. Members discussed the upcoming capacity analysis and the approval process for the Shawmut/WT Rich (SRP) contract once SRP submits redlined contract documents.
The finance working‑group report will be incorporated into the committee’s next meeting materials as the team progresses toward the Dec. 3 budget confirmation and the Dec. 17 schematic submission to the MSBA.
