State Sends Lincoln Street School Project Into Next Phase

"Detailed renderings" are next.

State officials have moved Northborough's proposed Lincoln Street Elementary School renovation-addition project into the schematic design phase.

The Massachusetts School Building Authority Board of Directors voted Wednesday to move the project into that phase, which involves creating "detailed renderings," agency officials said in a press release.

Agency and school officials will work together.

And once the design is done and approved, they'll work together on the scope and the budget, the agency said.

"The proposed renovation project would address deficiencies in building systems including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and windows. Lincoln Street Elementary School was built in 1965 and serves 270 students in Kindergarten through grade 5," the agency noted.

The Northborough School Committee recently voted to support the preferred Lincoln Street Elementary School building project option: a renovation, with a small addition.

The Massachusetts School Building Authority had required the project architects to develop three options, according to the Lincoln Street Building Committee's website: a complete new build, a renovation-addition, and no-build.
