Most of the bids for the Newtown Community Center project have been awarded.  The Public Building and Site Commission got an update at their meeting last month that the first concrete footings have also been poured.  Some bids did come in above expected budgeted amounts, so the architect and low bidders will meet to see if there are value engineering-material changes that can be made to lower the costs.  The project is expected to be completed September 2019.
