PRESS RELEASE – PLAY/GREEN SPACE AT SANDOWN NORTH

Due to the fact that we were unable to secure a vendor contract by June 30, 2015 to create additional play/green space at Sandown North Elementary School as part of the approved school consolidation plan, it is my recommendation to not move forward with the play/green space project at this time.

Although best efforts were made by all parties involved, we are unable to meet our legal obligation to make this project possible using funds from the 2014-15 budget and surplus as directed by the school board on June 18, 2015.

We are committed to exploring other options for providing appropriate play/green space for the children of Sandown.  As always, we thank the Timberlane community for its continued support.
