Scotland OKs $44,000 from CNR for elementary school HVAC work and air-quality evaluation
Summary
The Board approved a $44,000 withdrawal from the town CNR account to cover HVAC mandates and a five-year air-quality evaluation for Scotland Elementary School; motion carried unanimously.
The Scotland Board of Selectmen approved a request from the Scotland Elementary School Board of Education to draw $44,000 from the town’s CNR account to cover HVAC-mandate work and a five-year air-quality evaluation.
Selectman Mike Gurnack moved to approve the $44,000 request; Selectman Bart Laws seconded, and the motion carried. The request was presented as necessary to meet HVAC mandates and to fund an air-quality evaluation covering five years.
Treasurer David Zito had presented department budgets for fiscal year 2025–26 earlier in the meeting and warned of state budget cutbacks and changes to motor-vehicle tax valuation that could affect future revenue; the $44,000 CNR approval draws on existing capital reserves rather than ongoing operating funds.
The minutes record the treasurer’s report as attached to the official minutes; no further conditions or timing for the school work were specified in the meeting record.
