Attleboro Municipal Building Commission Meeting 08-12-2026

The Attleboro Municipal Building Commission held a meeting on August 12, 2026, primarily focused on updates and procurement matters related to the permanent PFAS water treatment facility at Waite River. The meeting included detailed progress reports on construction activities such as form work, rebar installation, and directional drilling for conduits under the river. The commission reviewed a change order log with multiple work change directives (WCDs) and proposed change orders (PCOs), discussing cost increases, decreases, and no-cost impacts related to structural, electrical, and piping modifications. Two PCOs with actual cost figures were highlighted, including a $10,600 increase for additional duct banks and a $7,000 credit for downsizing electrical breakers. The project remains on time and on budget with no contingency funds tapped yet. The commission also addressed reimbursement delays due to missing Buy America Act certifications from the contractor. Finally, the commission approved payment of contractor application number seven for $893,902.50 and related consultant invoices, moving forward with the project’s financial commitments.
