Derby wins $60,000 VTrans Park & Ride grant to expand Town Office parking; Beach House cleaner to be replaced
Summary
Town administrators told the Derby Select Board that Derby was awarded $60,000 from the 2026 VTrans Municipal Park & Ride Grant Program to expand parking behind the Town Offices; the town also said it must hire a new Beach House cleaner after the current cleaner announced she will stop.
Town administration reported on Jan. 5 that Derby was awarded $60,000 from the 2026 VTrans Municipal Park & Ride Grant Program to expand the parking lot behind the Town Offices. The administration also noted permitting activity (122 permits submitted last year) and that a DRB permit was pending for the coming week.
Officials said the town will need to hire someone to clean the Beach House this year after the current cleaner, identified in the minutes as Ann, gave notice because the work interferes with her weekends. The minutes note Ann typically cleans before every event and sometimes must clean between weekend events.
The Select Board recorded the grant award in the administrative update; next steps for design, bidding or implementation were not specified in the minutes and will require follow-up with town staff.
