Newfields committee amends minutes to clarify RFQ cost-estimate concern

Town of Newfields Public Safety Building Committee · August 5, 2026

Summary

The Public Safety Building Committee amended prior minutes to state that its concern was respondents' lack of cost estimates in the RFQ, not the committee's process; the amendment was approved unanimously on a motion by Tom Grella.

The Town of Newfields Public Safety Building Committee voted to amend and approve its prior meeting minutes to clarify that the issue raised was respondents' failure to include cost estimates in their RFQ responses, not a criticism of the committee's selection process. The committee approved the amended minutes unanimously after discussion.

John Hayden explained the distinction between a process critique and a concern about missing cost estimates. Tom Grella moved to accept the minutes as amended; Brian Knipstein seconded and the motion carried unanimously. The clarification preserves the committee's intent to allow fee negotiation with a selected firm during later phases.
