The Lisbon Central School Science Room Building Committee on July 7 unanimously approved payment of $855 to Properties Done Right for removal of demolition materials and set a timetable to finish renovation work at Lisbon Central School.
Committee Chair David Wood opened the special meeting at 7:28 p.m. and, after a roll call showing members D. Wood and M. Zelasky present with R. Baah attending as the alternate, committee member M. Zelasky moved and Chair David Wood seconded a motion to appoint alternate member R. Baah to voting status for the meeting; the motion carried unanimously.
The Chair announced an $855 invoice from Properties Done Right covering dumpster rental and removal of cabinetry, ceiling material and other cast‑offs, noting a $105 charge for a 0.7‑ton overage.

LCS Business Manager Jonathan Paradis provided a separate quote of $1,850 to replace a single damaged ball valve and noted there are nine ball valves in total.
