Facilities update: middle‑school solar installed but not yet connected; electrical upgrades completed at Greenwood and Doyle
Summary
Committee heard a facilities update that roof‑mounted solar panels at the middle school have been installed but not yet energized and that Greenwood and Doyle schools received electrical service upgrades to support future projects.
During the Aug. 26 meeting, committee members received a brief facilities update: solar panels installed at the middle school have not yet been connected to the district electrical system, and electrical service upgrades were completed at Greenwood and Doyle schools.
A district representative said the panels were installed but "not plugged in yet" and that the district is awaiting final connection. The committee was told Greenwood previously had 100‑amp service and was upgraded to 600‑amp service; Doyle also received an electrical upgrade. The district said a facilities update will be provided at a future meeting that will include additional details on projects such as MSBA (Massachusetts School Building Authority) considerations and next steps.
No formal action was taken; the report was informational and staff said more details would be included in upcoming subcommittee or facilities meetings.
