Elementary School Building Committee Jun 12, 2026

The Town of Amherst Elementary School Building Committee met on June 12, 2026, to discuss construction progress, schedule updates, and financial matters related to the new elementary school building project. Key procurement topics included review and approval of multiple invoices totaling several million dollars from contractors such as Disco, CTA, Alli Testing, ProAV, and Answer, covering construction administration, abatement, testing, and stored materials. The committee also addressed schedule risks related to elevator installation and the pending Eversource interconnection approval for the photovoltaic system, which could impact net-zero energy goals and operational costs. Additionally, the committee appointed a representative to the public art advisory committee, which will oversee the solicitation and selection of artwork for the school. The meeting concluded with a unanimous vote to approve the invoice package and adjournment.
