Updated Middle School Renovation Plan Will Have to Wait

The town's Middle School Building Committee is nearing completion for a final floor plan at both and , but as architects finish up the revisions, a final decision will have to wait.

Committee members confirmed Tuesday that Fletcher Thompson, the architecture firm hired to construct the final floor plan for the project, continues to work on the blueprint after the committee suggested 19 changes just a week ago.

The Record-Journal reported Monday that Christopher Palmieri is not concerned about the delay, instead crediting Fletcher Thompson for taking on the challenge and answering questions in a short amount of time:

"It helps to have it in writing rather than just hearing about it," Palmieri said. "There is no miscommunication."

Last week, the Record Journal also reported that the meeting included changes to the auditorium, which would have lost seats due to upgrades and safety requirements.

Other changes include moving the custodial offices to the first floor rather than the basement and changing the cafeteria floor plans to allow for two lines rather than one, committee members said Tuesday.
