The $3 million bid, which includes $743,000 to build out a sally port and holding cells, was submitted to the town last week by Noble Construction & Management of Centerbrook and was the lowest of nine bids for renovations in the 30,000-square-foot-building at 277 West Main St. Noble has completed projects for Yale University and Connecticut College, as well as the Region 18 school district, and was part of the town’s elementary schools renovation project completed last fall and “performed very well,” Town Building Committee Chairman Ray O’Connor said during Thursday’s meeting, which was virtual. When First Selectman Mark Nickerson first presented the idea to purchase and renovate the former Honeywell Building into a public safety facility, in Fall 2018, he expected it to cost $6 million based on estimates he and a task force obtained from experts before unveiling the plan.
