Board hears update on high-school roofing litigation, oil-spill costs and generator repairs
Summary
Facilities director warned the roofing project for Ansonia High School is delayed and currently in litigation; the board discussed oil-spill cleanup costs and the need to restore the high-school generator.
Facilities Director Mr. Evans told the board that the high-school roofing project must be completed over the summer when students are not in the building but that the project is currently tied up in litigation, delaying progress.
Mr. Evans also outlined concerns about oil tanks at district schools and noted costs associated with an oil spill this past summer at the high school. Board member Rich Bshara raised questions about the spill costs. Mayor Frank Tyszka asked Evans to send him an email with project details so the mayor could follow up with Corporation Counsel.
Mr. Evans said the district also needs to restore the high-school generator so it will be operational when required. There were no votes tied directly to contracting decisions during the meeting; board members sought follow-up from administration and legal counsel.
The meeting record does not include contract values or the litigation's specific legal posture; the mayor requested a follow-up email to Corporation Counsel for further action.
