Board approves PEC letter for $1.095 million partial roof replacement project
Summary
The board approved submission of a NJDOE Preliminary Eligible Cost letter for State Project #25-4580-050-23-R501 — a partial roof replacement at Rumson-Fair Haven High School with a PEC amount of $1,095,791.00 — and extended a referendum/construction consultant agreement through June 30, 2024.
The Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School Board of Education approved submission of the New Jersey Department of Education Preliminary Eligible Cost (PEC) letter for a partial roof replacement project at Rumson-Fair Haven High School (State Project #25-4580-050-23-R501) with a PEC amount of $1,095,791.00. The PEC was described in the agenda under the Educational Facilities Construction and Financing Act (P.L. 2000, c.72) as the basis for a Regular Operating District rehabilitation project.
The board also approved extending Brian Leddin as Referendum/Construction Consultant through June 30, 2024 at a rate of $167 per hour, not to exceed 10 hours per week, and approved additional consulting service hours for Orton Gillingham support (Ellen Vaccaro) at $110 per hour (additional 2 hours/week).
Why this matters: A PEC letter starts the state review process for a capital project and signals the district’s intent to pursue state reimbursement or grant support under the EFCFA; approval also commits the district to follow-up procurement and consultant coordination. The minutes record the PEC amount and the state project number directly in the agenda.
What’s next: Facilities staff and the appointed consultant will proceed with required submissions to NJDOE and coordinate next steps for design and procurement as permitted under state rules and the board’s consultant authorization.
