The School Building Authority and Joint Architects Committee are working to set square footage costs and identify variables that increase costs; they are also working on improving bidding procedures with the State Purchasing Department and the WV National Guard.  Members will receive updates from the committee’s task forces and discuss other industry issues, such as the progress of the WV Buy American Task Force.

HEPC REFINANCES BONDS, GENERATES $5 MILLION FOR PROJECTS

 

A favorable bond market has allowed the Higher Education Policy Commission to refinance their 2004 bonds, generating an additional $5 million for school improvement projects. The commission will have to decide which colleges or universities will get the extra funds before the refinancing can be completed. Every year the commission submits a list of needs to the state Legislature. This year the commission asked for $10 million to complete safety and maintenance projects for its member schools. While the legislature decided not to fund the projects this year, the estimated $5 million savings from the refinancing will go to these improvements. Projects on the list are generally relatively small investments, such as ADA compliance measures, roofing and sprinkler systems.  For further details, click here to view an article from the Charleston Daily Mail.
