Council approves consent calendar: Swift Center furniture change order, fire-station painting contract, planning-board promotion
Summary
The council adopted the consent calendar, approving a change order with Jade Corporation increasing the Swift Community Center furniture and equipment PO to $121,850 (reimbursed by a Coronavirus Community Learning Center grant), awarded Martone Inc. up to $74,294 for Fire Station 1 painting/repairs, and promoted David Johnson from alternate to regular planning-board member (term to 05/01/2028).
The council approved the consent calendar by unanimous vote. The items included routine minutes approval, a change order with Jade Corporation of Providence to increase the purchase order for furniture, furnishings and equipment for the Swift Community Center renovation from $116,850 to $121,850 (the project will be reimbursed by a Coronavirus Community Learning Center grant), and an award to Martone Incorporated of Narragansett in an amount not to exceed $74,294 for painting and repair work at Fire Station 1.
The council also confirmed a personnel action moving David Johnson from an alternate member to a regular member of the Planning Board on an initial three-year term to expire 05/01/2028. The motion to approve the consent calendar carried 4 to 0.
Why it matters: These items effect ongoing town projects and staffing continuity for the planning board. The furniture change order and painting contract move forward procurement for town facilities funded in part by grant reimbursements.
