Litchfield approves up to $1.5 million grant arrangement for volunteer ambulance association
Summary
The board approved a grant agreement to assist funding of the Litchfield Volunteer Ambulance Association project and agreed to appropriate up to $1.5 million to be bonded per town meeting resolution and forwarded to the Board of Finance and town meeting.
The Litchfield Board of Selectmen voted May 5 to approve a grant agreement with the Litchfield Volunteer Ambulance Association and to appropriate up to $1.5 million to assist funding of the project.
Selectman Jeff Zullo moved the grant approval and appropriation, John Bongiorno seconded, and the board voted unanimously to approve. The motion directs that the appropriation be bonded in accordance with a future town meeting resolution and forwarded to the Board of Finance and to the town meeting for final approval and bonding authorization.
The board’s action authorizes the town to proceed with the grant agreement and to include the appropriation in forthcoming bonding and finance review steps; the motion did not itself bond the appropriation — that step will require the town meeting and Board of Finance review. The record does not specify project timelines or contractual vendors; the board forwarded the grant agreement to the Board of Finance and to a town meeting for further action.
