Select board authorizes up to $5,000 for sign at new fire station
Summary
At the deliberative session, the select board moved and the body approved authorization to withdraw up to $5,000 from the Suwanee Fire Tool and Equipment non‑restricted account to buy and install a sign for the new fire station; a contractor quote was cited at about $4,800.
The Town of Swansea at its deliberative session authorized an expenditure of up to $5,000 for a new sign at the town's new fire station. Select board members said the expected quote was roughly $4,800 and that Gordon Services offered to install the sign at no charge, reducing the anticipated town cost.
The motion to authorize withdrawal "of up to $5,000 from the Suwanee Fire Tool and Equipment non‑restricted account for the purchase and installation of a sign for the new fire station" was moved and seconded and approved by voice vote.
Officials said Deputy Chief Burke was checking timing for sign delivery; presenters recommended setting the authorization slightly higher than the estimate to allow for delivery timing and potential contingencies. The authorization will allow staff to proceed with sign procurement once the vendor schedule and installation timing are confirmed.
