MPIC aims to scope townwide buildings assessment and develop RFP for 2027 warrant article

Rye Master Plan Implementation Committee · June 2, 2026

Summary

MPIC agreed to pursue a comprehensive townwide buildings facility needs and architectural assessment, with Chair John Shaw to coordinate with the School Board and Select Board to develop an RFP and proposed budget in 2026 so a 2027 warrant article could fund the full study; Kim Reed will contact firms for cost estimates.

Rye's Master Plan Implementation Committee on June 2 discussed organizing town groups to collaborate on a comprehensive townwide buildings facility-needs and architectural assessment, noting the School Board is already moving forward with a separate RFP for school buildings.

Chair John Shaw said he will work with the School Board and Select Board to try to organize a working meeting to establish a coordinated plan. MPIC set a 2026 goal to develop an RFP and to establish a proposed budget so the study could be included as a 2027 warrant article if approved.

Kim Reed will contact one or more firms for cost estimates to inform the RFP and MPIC members and staff will begin gathering potential source documents about town buildings that could be used in the RFP process.

Next steps: Chair Shaw will seek coordination among boards, Reed will request estimates from firms, and MPIC will compile relevant source documents for the RFP.
