Select Board approves letter of support for library rooftop solar grant
Summary
The Select Board voted to provide a letter of support for a library grant to install a 27-panel rooftop solar array; the meeting record describes the project as roughly $40,000 with a grant figure cited as $48,000 and notes uncertainty about energy credits.
The Select Board approved sending a letter of support to the library trustee for a grant application to install rooftop solar on the library.
The presenter said the project would place a 27-panel rooftop array on the rear of the library and described it as roughly a $40,000 project. The presenter also said the grant amount was described in the application materials as $48,000 and noted uncertainty about how any energy credits would be treated. The library planned to apply in October with funds distributed in November if awarded.
A board member moved to send a letter of support and the motion was seconded; the motion passed by roll call with all members voting in favor as recorded in the transcript.
The board noted that if the library does not receive the grant the project would not proceed with town funding based on the discussion at the meeting.
