A firm has been selected to manage the Newtown Community Center Project.  Public Buildings and Site Commission Chairman Robert Mitchell told the Newtown Bee that Diversified Project Management was requested to fill the position.  DPM does need municipal approval, but will start collecting information about Requests for Qualification for architects and construction management firms.

The Community Center is being paid for with a $10-million grant from GE. 

The Commission is hoping to follow the same process as the new Sandy Hook School--by creating a short list of firms, inviting them to submit proposals and selecting from that list.
