Selectmen accept $19,014.64 in highway-related state funds, allocate to gas tax and block grants
Summary
Greenland officials accepted $17,018.61 in a highway block grant and $1,996.03 in gas tax payments at their May 5 meeting, a combined $19,014.64 that will support transportation-related town expenses.
The Greenland Board of Selectmen voted May 5 to accept highway-related state payments totaling $19,014.64: a highway block grant of $17,018.61 and gas tax payment of $1,996.03.
Town staff explained the funds derive from state gas-tax and highway-related revenue streams; some highway-related grants and reimbursements typically also support police traffic enforcement and safety programs but the block grant portion is municipal highway funding. A staff member described the distribution as quarterly.
A motion to accept the highway block grant and gas tax payment was made, seconded and carried. The board closed a public hearing on the matter before voting.
The assembly did not specify further allocations in the meeting minutes; staff will record the receipt and apply funds in accordance with state guidance and town budgeting practices.
