course deliveries, once the roof contractor is on site for the
job?
.
Special Board of Selectmen's meeting April 26, continued to April 29 -
awarding of contract on the agenda.
Underway! Low
bidder very experienced and working hard...
NEXT BIG
BUILDING
COMMITTEE JOB THE WESTON MIDDLE SCHOOL ROOF: Results ("Yes") of Special Town Meeting here.
Special Town
Meeting voted "Yes" (@250 - FORUM undercounted, we think -
but maybe they were correct, since we saw them talking to the
Registrars of Voters. Bids came in at 2pm Wednesday March 24,
2010 - simple numbers (the full bids are being evaluated by H.B.
Fishman and will, we think, be discussed at the next Building Committee
meeting/Selectmen's meeting) ranged from $1,775k TO $2,987k among 8
companies.
The Referendum project as approved Nov. 15, 2001; School
Road in Weston in 1991(c) and a recent flight - photos from TerraServa
website.
Entrance to Weston Middle School; Floor Plan, WMS with arts
center (not built); WMS has had additions made, including the
swimming pool (which can be used by all Westonites).
Some of the work done on the WMS during the Referendum...it seems the
Middle
School has looked the same forever (photo on the right has my 1984
Honda Prelude in it)!
GENTLEMEN, START YOUR ENGINES...ON
TOWN HALL ROOF REPLACEMENT PROJECT! FINISHED
SUCCESSFULLY!!! BUCKETS TRANSFERRED TO W.M.S.:
Selectmen
voted unanimously (3-0) on August
7th to proceed with roof replacement as the Historic District
Commission required
(Wednesday, July 2, 2008).
Monday, January 19, 2009: workers hard at work altho' Town
Hall closed for MLK Day. Lookin' good!
Wednesday, November 12, 2008: looking to the east
(l.) looking west (r.) gives you a view of the work being done on
the new wing...
Tuesday, September 30, '08: grey day, prep work
around windows going forward; banging is getting to be usual as
the Town Hall roof replacement moves ahead!
By Wednesday, the three sides of the Town Hall with easy
pedestrian access had scaffolding in place. Some banging and
clanging - note that the cupola (center) had its paint scraped.
We photographed this bright and early Monday, September 22,
2008, as the Town Hall Roof replacement project got underway! No
banging and clanging that we heard, yet...
The Roofs of Weston: note that Town Hall leaks are to be a thing
of the past...how about WMS, the Library, DPW...etc.? And how
about a Police Station - more than just a roof here!
