Council approves 3rd‑party code review contract for school projects (4Leaf)
Summary
Council awarded third‑party code‑review services to 4Leaf (Foxborough, MA) for the district's school construction projects at a cost not to exceed $59,640 to support the building and fire code plan review process and speed permit turnaround.
The council approved a contract with 4Leaf to provide third‑party code review services for the Frenchtown and Hannaford elementary projects and the East Greenwich High School, with a not‑to‑exceed fee of $59,640. The school construction committee had evaluated four responses and recommended 4Leaf because of its Rhode Island experience, quick turnaround (10 days for initial reviews) and specific school‑construction knowledge.
Kate Turner, senior project manager with the consultant team, explained that third‑party plan review is intended to supplement the local building official and fire marshal by providing technical review, identifying code variances and reducing permit bottlenecks. The award was unanimous and was recommended to expedite permit review and keep the project schedule on track.
