A capital needs assessment has determined that the Memorial School site, located on North Street, is in need of extensive wall repair to counteract trapped water. Work slated to begin at the end of June includes replacement of aluminum drip edge flashing, repair of cracked masonry façade and sealing masonry veneer panels. Project completion is anticipated by the end of August, prior to the beginning of the academic year.
“We are very grateful to Needham Bank,” said Jean Mineo, chair of MAP’s Quest Capital Campaign and former President of the MAP Executive Board. “This generous contribution is a tangible demonstration of Needham Bank’s commitment to the community of Medfield; the contribution will benefit more than 250 Medfield families this year and many more in the future and we cannot say thank you enough.”
