Mr. Terenzini:

This is a request under the Massachusetts Public Records Law (M.G.L. chapter 66, section 10) we are requesting the following documents for the referenced project.

1. Copies of the statement of qualifications (SOQ) submitted by each general contractor that submitted an SOQ in response to the request for qualifications for the referenced project.
2. Copy of written evaluation including composite rating and specific rating for each evaluation criteria for each of the general contractor firms that submitted an SOQ in response to the request for qualifications for the referenced project.
3. Copies of all references checked and feedback from references for all general contractors submitting an SOQ in response to the request for qualifications for the referenced project.
4. Copies of all third party information received by the prequalification committee or any other representatives or agents of the Town of Templeton regarding any general contractor that responded to the RFQ.

This request was filed by CTA construction co. Inc.

Sounds like somebody is peed off and after skimming thru 240 pages on CTA, I see why, but there are not many good things said of CTA and well there is or was about 36 million on the line here.

Funny thing is, within another pille of documents, such as RFQ interest form;

Awarding Authority - Town of Templeton
project name - Templeton elementary school project

Mail or fax RFQ interest form to:

Narragansett Regional School District
Office of the Superintendent
462 Baldwinville Road
Templeton, MA 01436
978-939-5661

date submitted: July 14, 2016 - 55 pages long

another document titled Commonwealth of Massachusetts

standard forms
for
General contractor prequalification


Solicitation of request for prequalification
Town of Templeton - Templeton elementary school, 17 South Road, Templeton, MA
dated June 26, 2016

General project information:
awarding authority - Town of Templeton, project name - Templeton elementary school
project description - new elementary school,  submission deadline; July 27, 2016 by 2:00 P.M.

submission address;  drum roll please - Narragansett Regional School district
office of the superintendent
462 Baldwinville Road, Templeton, Ma 01436 - 978-939-5661

Now, the awarding authority is listed as Town of Templeton and last I checked, Town Hall is not located on Baldwinville Road, so with that in mind, consider this; "An original and 2 copies of the interested general contractor's SOQ application package must be received by the AWARDING AUTHORITY on or before the submission deadline as set forth in section I, as determined by the AWARDING AUTHORITY's date/time stamp.  So how does that work? send to the superintendent's office and then it goes to Templeton Town Hall to get time stamped. Perhaps selectmen Brooks has the answers, as she was serving on the school building committee at this time and she can ask the tough questions to explain how this works. It appears the selectmen as a group just let this whole thing be handled by the school district while the Town is left holding the bills and the spending of funds not there, as in shortfalls, again!
Who collected the fees for the public records request and who did the work?
