Bill Jones asked what we base it on? <br /> Mr . Franceschi stated the Dodge report information the Committee <br /> reviewed is for construction costs, which are about $110-120 per <br /> sq foot. The $145 is for project costs which include equipment, <br /> fees and clerk of the works - soft costs . The construction costs <br /> are usually 80% of the project and soft costs are 20%. <br /> Mr. Dinizio thinks the Committee can come up with a cap after we <br /> have set the maximum. You don ' t have to spend every cent. The <br /> Middle school project returned 15% of the project and established <br /> a sense of trust with the town . We have to make a recommendation <br /> that covers us. We should go with the formula amount and then <br /> set an intermediate point that we don 't want to exceed. <br /> Mr. Greelish does not think that will be well received with the <br /> voters. What the Committee and voters believe are two different <br /> things. <br /> ** Motion to present Selectmen with $27 . 7 million as project <br /> costs. Ms. Ahlgren, Mr. Dinizio, Ms. Mills, Mr . Jones <br /> and Mr. Martiros were in favor. Mr. Greelish was <br /> opposed . ** <br /> • Mr. Greelish presented the information he had to the Committee . <br /> He had a map with overlays to get an idea of what is around the <br /> 151 site. What the developed sites are , what the town owns, what <br /> is buildable. He will bring it to the Selectmen 's meeting Monday <br /> night. <br /> Tom stated that information has already been prepared , and his <br /> results are opposite of Steve Greelish 's . <br /> **** <br /> Dr. DeMoura presented the proposal from Dr . Collabro, who was the <br /> only person who responded to the educational consultant RFP. <br /> His fee is $578. for data collection and $10, 000 for the <br /> educational specifications. He also included an hourly rate for <br /> the meetings at a rate of $80. 00 per hour. <br /> Dr. DeMoura suggested the Committee meet with him and maybe work <br /> these numbers down. <br /> Dr. DeMoura will invite him to the Committee 's next meeting , <br /> Tuesday, November 16th at 4:00 p.m. <br /> **** <br /> Tom asked for a definite answer on whether the piece of property <br /> on the corner of Great Neck Rd .
