Schools To Continue
Construction
Slightly revised plans have
enabled Davie County to go
ahead with their proposed
school construction program.
Davie County School
Superintendent said this week
that by accepting a few
alternates and substitutes
through negotiation with the
contractors enabled the
construction costs to be
brought more in line with what
was originally anticipated.
"I want to emphasize,
however, that no structural
changes were affected. Just the
acceptance of some alternates
and substitutes in non-critical
areas", said Mr. Everidge.
The revised bids on the
construction projects total
$1,155,000. This covers the
construction of the new
Fa rm ington-Smith Grove
Elementary School,
construction at the William R.
Davie School and the utilities
for Farmington- Smith Grove,
William R. Davie and Shady
Grove.
Mr. Everidge pointed out
that the Davie County Board
of Education and the
architects, on the basis of the
construction bids on these
projects, have adjusted their
estimate for the remaining
projects accordingly.
It is estimated that the
remaining projects will now
total around $1,668,000. This
16 pages
10 cents
includes the construction of a
new Mocksville Elementary
School with 24 classrooms;
minor renovations and a new
kitchen at the Mocksville
Middle School; a 16-room
addition at the Shady Grove
School; and $200,000 to be
spent on the Cooleemee
Elementary School.
Mr. Everidge said that the
board of education has given
letters of intent to the low
bidders on the projects at
Farmington-Smith Grove;
William R. Davie, and the
utilities at three schools. These
were as follows:
Hugh G. Strickland, Inc. of
Winston-Salem, the general
contract for the William R.
Davie and Smith Grove -
Farmington construction, and
also the utilities for the two
schools plus Shady Grove.
Floyd S. Pike Electrical
Company of Winston-Salem
the combined heating and air
conditioning bid for the two
schools.
