A fuSCHOOL | FROM Page 1 conti asked if the council could see a comparison of building at Wonderland and the existing site. Rebuilding on the existing site has been passed over because of the opposition of neighbors who feared their homes would be taken by eminent domain and the concern about students being stuck in a construction site particularly after the academic hardships they faced during the pandemic. Although several councillors said they were told the city could lose Mass. School Building Association funding if the project reverted back to the original site, Dakin said it was possible but would require MSBA approval and would set the project back a couple of years. Dankin told councillors hard and fast numbers were impossible to promise because of rising costs in the construction industry, which are higher than most professionals can remember. Cost increases have been worked into the estimate. Council President Patrick Keefe told Viscay what everyone on the council wanted to hear is that the school can be built and paid for without an override or debt exclusion. “Can we do it with the funding we have coming in?” Keefe asked adding that he would do his part in looking for possible cuts in the city’s operating budget.
