3. DPW Steel Building

Chair Gladstone will be meeting with DPW Superintendent, Eric Hooper, in the coming week and has asked the SSBC members for their professional input as to what route this committee should take regarding the DPW Steel Building and should the Sharon Standing building Committee be involved and in what level.  Mr. Gladstone gave a brief history by saying that at the May 2011 Town Meeting, it was voted that $400,000 was approved to build a prefab Steel building in back of the DPW to house DPW trucks, equipment and to provide some storage for the Police Department and the Town Clerk’s Department.  DPW put it out to bid and came in higher than the $400,000 and, in fact, exceeded the half million dollar threshold.  It is the consensus of the SSBC that it should be asked of Eric Hooper to engage an Architect to do a Feasibility Study under the SSBC guidelines.

A reminder to the SSBC members to submit to the Town Clerk’s Office before June 30, 2012 the signed completed online mandatory training program which is required by the State Ethics Commission by every municipal employee. 

The meeting adjourned at 7:40 p.m.

Next Meeting:  Tuesday - June 26, 2012 – C.C. Conference Room at 6:30 p.m.

Submitted:
