Delays in Greenwich’s Central Middle School project are driving up costs $12.6K a day, committee says

Every day that the Central Middle School building project is delayed, it adds around $12,600 to the overall cost. Now, the building committee is planning to move the project forward just a bit by applying for municipal improvement status — an essential step for the project to get any more funding. The project is slated to be on the Planning and Zoning Commission’s Oct. 17 agenda, Turner said at the building committee’s recent meeting. The building committee planned to move forward with the project last month by asking town boards for an interim funding request of $42 million, but a new memorandum from the town’s legal department said that could not be done until the project got MI status. The committee passed both motions, but not without conversation primarily over the timeline of asking for interim funding and going to the state about cost reimbursement. Overall, the project is expected to cost around $112 million.
