91,000 sq ft of renovated educational space
for $13.5 million
works out to $148/sq ft
– that’s a bargain since it costs at least $225/sq ft to build new, once you own the land.
Since the town is paying $3.6 million
the effective cost per sq ft is only $40
– you can’t do better than that!

Conclusion: Now is the time to bring this project to fruition. The full-day kindergarten program has been
proven successful and requires more space.The state money is available now, and may not be
in the future.The building is still salvageable; and valuable to
the town.Costs keep going up; construction costs and
borrowing costs. It will never be cheaper.Bonding this necessary school rehab will not affect
property taxes.
