Torrington Board of Education Facilities & Technology and Budget Committee Meetings

The Torrington Public Schools held a joint Facilities & Technology and Budget Committee meeting on August 6, 2026. Key procurement-related discussions included updates on capital improvement projects such as the TIS/TMS roof replacement, which is awaiting state approval following a referendum, and the ongoing chiller replacement project. The committee reviewed and approved the annual Building Management System (BMS) contract with SNE for HVAC controls and discussed plans to issue a bid for districtwide elevator preventative maintenance services, currently managed by TKE. Budget discussions highlighted adjustments to line items for tutors, substitutes, overtime, and legal expenses, with increases made to better align with actual expenditures. The committee also noted the denial of a capital 313 funding request but plans to resubmit it. A motion to approve the BMS contract was passed to move forward to the full board. Future meetings will continue to address these capital projects and budget amendments.
