Bare Bones School Construction Bill Sails Through Legislature
A bill setting a 24 dollar per square foot limit on state financed school construction was labeled bare bones by an education official. Rep Richard Carey of Waterville introduced the measure to curb costs amid a 20.6 million Education Equalization Act deficit. The bill allows flexibility for special cases and inflation, but would bar pools and skating rinks in school complexes from state aid.
