Warren board OKs contigency funds for Willard school

Tuesday, March 20, 2007

WARREN — The city school district will use one-third of its contingency funds for the new Willard kindergarten through eighth grade building to treat the soil at the construction site.

The board of education voted 3-2 on Tuesday to award a $315,575 contract to Hively Construction of Canfield to use chemicals to treat the wet soil at the construction site on Willard Avenue Southeast.

The soil treatment was necessary because of the wet weather that has plagued the area, said Bill Schurmanok, senior manager of Carbone, Ozanne and Hammond of Canton, which is handling the construction.
