Summary
The committee set a May 14 ribbon-cutting for the new Town Hall, invited federal and state delegations and past council members, planned short remarks and guided tours, and canceled the May 12 meeting with the next meeting set for May 26.
The Town of Farmington building committee scheduled a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new town hall on May 14 and confirmed event logistics, invitations and tour plans.
Event details: Staff said invitations have been sent to the federal ARPA delegation, state legislative representatives, the town council and past council members who supported the referendum. Donors who bought commemorative bricks will receive separate invitations to pick up their bricks at the ceremony. The committee agreed speeches will be brief and tightly timed — the staff anticipated the ceremony itself would be "13 minutes max" — and asked volunteers to help lead short tours of the building.
Logistics and rules: Staff said there will be a booth for donor pick-ups, amplified voice units for tour leaders if needed, and limits on where food may be placed on site. The committee discussed script preparation for tour guides and flashcards for sign displays.
Schedule change: The committee voted to cancel the May 12 meeting and confirmed the next meeting for May 26 as the committee wraps up remaining business.
Next steps: Staff will distribute scripts and signage in advance to committee members and coordinate volunteer sign-ups for tours on the day of the event.
