Block Island Times: Cherry Hill Lane project moves toward bidding

The Block Island Housing Board has begun to review design drawings for the five homes in the Cherry Hill Lane affordable housing development, the next step toward bringing the long-planned project to fruition. Members plan to consult with Town Manager Ed Roberge about the process of issuing bids for preparing the site and constructing the homes.

Board member John Spier told the group at its July 11 meeting that he had recently received plans and specifications for the building shells from the Housing Board's architect, Frank Karpowicz.

“I will have to take some time to review these,” said Spier of the drawings. His initial assessment: The architect “did what we asked,” and “We have house plans that can go out to bid.”
