The Sullivan Zoning Board of Adjustment held a June 18, 2026 hearing on G2 Holdings’ request for a Special Exception to conduct earth excavation on roughly 200 forested acres, coordinated with an existing Keene pit. Exact excavation areas, phasing, monitoring, and reclamation plans will be set later by the Planning Board under RSA 155-E, with multi-year blasting and restoration expected. This is a large, long-term quarry project where G2 is the applicant, and the town will likely require design studies, monitoring, reclamation, bonding, and compliance services, creating room for engineering, environmental, and specialty contractors around the core operation.
Pre-RFP
$7,500,000Jun 18, 2026Keene plans a $1,338,000 change order with McFarland Johnson to add extensive right-of-way engineering and property acquisition services for the Lower Winchester Street 40666 Reconstruction Project. The scope covers surveys, deed research, title reports, appraisals, negotiations, closings, and recording for about 53 parcels under federal funding rules. While the consultant is selected, this reveals a large, multi-year corridor reconstruction with 80 percent federal funding, creating future demand for construction, utilities, traffic control, and potential relocation work.
Contract Award
$1,338,000Jul 9, 2026Keene has authorized negotiation and execution of a roughly three-year construction contract for the Downtown Infrastructure Project with Casella Construction, Inc., in the amount of 26,058,836, following years of planning and value engineering. The work covers underground utility replacement (water, sewer, stormwater), streetscape reconstruction, and Central Square upgrades, with Phase 1 expected to focus on Central Square and nearby Main Street blocks starting around mid-July 2026. The contract includes scope flexibility tied to the final FY 2027 budget, and the City is planning intensive stakeholder outreach, including a project ombudsman, monthly “Coffee and Hard Hats” meetings, and regular updates to the Municipal Services, Facilities and Infrastructure Committee. While the prime contractor is selected, there will be ongoing opportunities for subcontractors, traffic control, materials suppliers, business support, marketing/outreach, and possibly technology or wayfinding solutions that help maintain access and economic activity during the disruptive multi-year build.
Contract Award
$26,058,836Jun 4, 2026The Cheshire County Commissioners approved the sale of $18,500,000 in 2026 Tax Anticipation Notes (TANs), selecting TD Financial Products LLC from five competing bids. The winning bid carries a net interest cost of 2.826736% and includes a $116,365 premium, with closing on June 17, 2026 and maturity on December 30, 2026. This decision indicates the County’s short-term cash flow strategy and its active use of capital markets, with comparative bids from BNY Mellon Capital Markets, Oppenheimer & Co., M&T Bank, and JP Morgan. While the TAN for 2026 is already awarded, this provides clear intelligence on Cheshire County’s borrowing patterns, preferred structures, and competitive landscape that could be leveraged for future note sales, refinancing, or treasury/financial advisory services.
Contract Award
$18,500,000Jun 4, 2026The town will hold a Special Town Meeting to vote on accepting a $3 million bond to build a new police station on Upper Walpole Road. A $2.058 million USDA grant has already been awarded to help fund construction. Budget and bond hearings are scheduled July 1, with the Special Town Meeting on August 17. With funding decisions pending and no builder named, architects, engineers, construction managers, and public safety planners can engage on station design, cost estimates, and site development ahead of procurement.
Grant Funding
$5,058,000Jun 17, 2026The New Hampshire DOT presented a detailed update to Keene’s Municipal Services, Facilities and Infrastructure Committee on the Rt. 101 reconstruction project (Keene 41590), covering approximately one mile from near Optical Ave. east past Branch Road, including replacement of the Branch River Bridge and realignment of Swanzey Factory Road to a new single-lane roundabout. The project will widen shoulders to 5 feet, improve drainage with treatment swales and detention basins, address a structurally deficient bridge with ASR damage, and relocate Swanzey Factory Road to follow an old rail spur alignment, requiring closure of the existing intersection and transfer of some ROW to abutters. A formal NHDOT public hearing is being held June 5, 2026, followed by a 10-day comment period and a Finding of Occasion decision by a commission. Construction is fully funded in the state’s Ten-Year Plan, with an 80/20 federal-state split, and is targeted to begin in spring 2029 with at least three construction seasons (through about 2031). While this is an NHDOT project, it will heavily affect Keene’s transportation network and utilities, and creates future opportunities for heavy civil contractors, bridge specialists, drainage/erosion control vendors, and potentially local utility work coordination, once NHDOT moves to final design and bidding.
Public Updates
$21,600,000Jun 4, 2026Keene is moving forward with a critical wastewater resiliency project at the Martel Court Sewer Pump Station, where a failed valve and lack of bypass capability have created operational risk for several years. The City received a promising construction bid for a new force main river crossing and is now authorizing an agreement with Wright Pierce for engineering services during construction, in an amount not to exceed 465,000. The project is funded 100% by City funds initially, with the City on the State Aid Grant list for potential partial reimbursement after completion. While Wright Pierce is the design and construction-phase engineer, this project highlights upcoming heavy civil construction, potential specialty trenchless work under the Branch River, and future operations/maintenance needs. Contractors and equipment vendors in sewer force mains, bypass pumping, and SCADA can monitor for change orders, related upgrades, and similar pump station work in the City’s utility program.
Contract Award
$465,000Jun 4, 2026An engineer’s report on the Golden Rod Grange Hall foundation raised safety concerns, and a rough estimate of $160,000 was provided to jack the building, replace the foundation, add drainage, and reuse the original brick as a facade. The Board has temporarily closed the building and is seeking input from the town attorney and insurance carrier while a staff member reaches out to the state for grants. This is a developing capital project for structural engineers, historic preservation contractors, and grant consultants to help refine design, cost, and funding.
Pre-RFP
$160,000Jun 17, 2026Keene plans a $150,000 change order with Lakes Region Fuel Systems to furnish and install a permanent fuel storage tank at the Martell Court Pump Station and remove the temporary tank. Lakes Region has already done design, permitting, and prior tank work, and the change order shifts them into full construction delivery. This is decided work but shows the incumbent for fuel system design, installation, and maintenance at Keene facilities, useful for follow-on service, monitoring, and related infrastructure offerings.
Contract Award
$150,000Jul 9, 2026The Selectboard approved a new five-year AVITAR agreement for assessing services totaling $217,776, up from the prior $194,000 contract. This locks in AVITAR as the town's property assessing and related software/services provider through roughly 2030. IT, GIS, and consulting firms now know AVITAR is the incumbent and can target integrations, data cleanup, valuation analytics, and support work, as well as prepare for the next renewal cycle.
