Sandy Hook School project comes in under budget, surplus returns to the state

Newtown is sending $1.5 million back to the state as the Sandy Hook School rebuilding project officially closes out.  The Public Building and Site Commission recently determined that all expenditures for the newly opened school have been tallied.  Connecticut gifted $50 million to Newtown when the town determined that the best option to move forward was to tear down the site of the shooting and build a new facility on the same property.  Newtown officials say they were mindful of the generosity and were determined to be respectful with the resources.  They credit some of the savings to having very few change orders, deviations and additions because of the vast amount of planning that went into the design process.
