Trinity To Revise Construction Costs For Middle School

The Trinity School Board voted to approve a revised maximum project cost and a new maximum building construction cost for the construction of the intermediate school and renovations for the middle school. The new maximum project number is $72 million and the new maximum building cost number is $39.5 million. Inflation in materials caused the bids to exceed an 8% threshold permitted by state law. The district will hold a public hearing on the new numbers on July 27 at 5:00 pm. The meeting will detail the specific factors that led to the cost increase. The public is invited to attend the public hearing and register their opinion with district leaders.
