High School Building Committee Meeting: July 15, 2026

The Milford High School Building Committee held a meeting on July 15, 2026, focusing primarily on the selection and contracting of a Construction Manager at Risk (CM) for the new high school project. After a thorough qualification and proposal review process involving three firms—Consigli, Gilbane, and Shawmut—Gilbane withdrew, leaving Consigli and Shawmut as finalists. The committee unanimously approved entering into a contract with Consigli Construction, citing their local investment, detailed logistics planning, and strong presentation as key factors. The contract includes a fixed price of $150,000 for initial phases, with further negotiations to follow after design selection and town vote. The meeting also covered upcoming project milestones, including schematic design presentations, community meetings, and cost estimation processes. Discussions emphasized the importance of constructability, logistics, and cost-effectiveness in selecting building options, including considerations for the pool and gymnasium areas. No other significant procurement actions were taken during the meeting.
