Riverside board doubles estimate for elementary‑school construction management contract to $800,000
Summary
The Riverside Township Board of Education unanimously revised the estimated contract amount for New Road Construction Management Company from $400,000 to $800,000 to oversee improvements and an addition at Riverside Elementary School.
The Riverside Township Board of Education voted unanimously Sept. 12 to revise the estimated contract amount for New Road Construction Management Company from $400,000 to $800,000 to provide construction management services for various improvements and the construction of an addition at Riverside Elementary School.
The motion, made by Mrs. M. Pinho and seconded by D. Graf, was carried without objection. The minutes state the increase is to cover construction management services related to improvements, alterations, renovations and the addition at the elementary building; no breakdown of specific line‑item costs was included in the board packet attached to the minutes.
Why it matters: doubling the district’s estimated construction management budget has direct budgetary implications for the capital project. The minutes do not specify the funding source for the higher estimate, whether the work is tied to a bond, grant, or existing capital budget, or a timeline for contracting and commencement.
The board’s action was recorded as a formal resolution with a unanimous vote. The meeting adjourned at 7:40 p.m., and the minutes were signed by Robert O’Brien, Board Secretary.
