Select Board tables request to spend municipal-building trust funds pending details
Summary
DPW Director Jason Rucker requested up to $100,000 from municipal building trust funds to address safety, security and repair needs; the Select Board agreed to table the vote and asked for more information on allowable expenditures before taking action.
DPW Director Jason Rucker told the Select Board he had identified facility repairs and improvements not covered in the 2026 budget and asked the Board to approve expenditures from the Municipal Building Maintenance Trust Fund and the Municipal Building Construction and Renovation Trust Fund. Rucker estimated the overall request would not exceed $100,000 and said the work would address safety concerns, facility security and infrastructure protection.
Board members asked questions about what expenses are permitted from those trust accounts and whether the work requires additional planning. After discussion the board "agreed to table the vote on the request for further information on what can be expended from these funds," leaving the request unresolved for now.
No motion to expend funds was approved at the meeting; the board requested additional detail from DPW before scheduling a vote.
