Board sets budget timeline, notes MERP heat-pump problems and VTrans grant options
Summary
The Select Board asked a two-member Budget Committee to draft the 2027 budget using last year’s numbers, said the MERP heat pumps at the Town Office are not working and reported two VTrans grants are available with grant-writing help from Mike Winslow.
Chair Andrea Treadway asked that the Budget Committee (she and Hans Tudhope) prepare a first draft of the 2027 budget using last year’s numbers; she asked Treasurer Bryan Young to provide end-of-month figures so budget work can begin in October with a draft due at the end of October.
Under Old Business Andrea said the MERP heat pumps at the Town Office "are not working again" and described a recent punch-list meeting with Tom, Shelly and Jason; she said Tom Purdy (Clerk of the Works) has been overseeing All Points on workflow. In New Business Andrea highlighted two VTrans funding opportunities — the Better Back Roads Grant and the Better Connections Grant — and said Mike Winslow can assist with grant writing and administration, with his fee to be covered by grant funding where eligible.
