Confusion over Winchester school project funding

The $17 million renovation of the shuttered Mary P. Hinsdale School is the only school project under way in the town and officials will be seeking state money to help pay the cost. The State Bond Commission approved $200 million for school construction projects when it met July 21 and while the town of Winchester was noted by Lamont at the start of the meeting as among those included for state funding, it was not in fact part of the 2019 package, two officials said. Though Winsted applied for $7 million in state bonding to be used for a $17 million renovation plan for Hinsdale School, it may be months before the town’s school renovation project funding will be considered, because it must pass through the hands of the legislature first, state Rep. Jay Case said.
