Story:
...The Hamilton Avenue School project, which began in 2005, has encountered many delays, stretching an estimated 18-month completion period to one that has taken three years. While parents recently received assurances that the project would wrap up before the start of next school year, they also have been disappointed in the past by interim deadlines that have been missed.
For instance, officials said the building would be substantially complete in May, which then stretched into June, and now is slated for end of July.
The frequent delays have disheartened school parents, many of whom have stopped attending meetings in which Mazza and other members of a building committee meet with project manager Middletown-based Pinnacle One and contractor Bethel-based Worth Construction to talk about the project.....
