Assessors express interest in DEP solid waste diversion grant for Transfer Station reuse facility
Summary
The Board discussed a DEP grant opportunity for solid waste diversion and noted the reuse facility concept at the Transfer Station could fit the grant; Assessor Rodney Varney will prepare figures for the application.
The clerk told the Board the Department of Environmental Protection is offering grant funding for solid waste diversion projects and that the town’s previously discussed reuse facility at the Transfer Station appears to align with the program.
Board members discussed the project scale and details and assigned Assessor Rodney Varney to assemble a figures sheet to populate the grant application. No grant application was submitted at the meeting; the item will return to the agenda with Varney’s data.
Why it matters: DEP grant funds could help fund a reuse facility at the Transfer Station, reducing waste and potentially lowering long-term disposal costs for the town.
