Beacon Falls EDC gives green light to Rimmon School House rehabilitation after safety tests
Summary
The Beacon Falls Economic Development Commission approved starting the Rimmon School House rehabilitation after tests found no asbestos and lead only in limited areas; the commission approved a project logo and a donor-funded sign, and postponed a formal dedication to a 'commencing' event with no start date set.
On June 22, 2026, the Town of Beacon Falls Economic Development Commission reviewed and approved moving forward with rehabilitation work at the Rimmon School House after environmental testing cleared major hazards.
Commission records show tests found no asbestos and detected lead only in specific, limited areas, allowing the commission to grant a green light to begin the project, though members did not set an official start date. The commission also approved a newly designed project logo for the rehabilitation effort.
Commissioner Josepha McGeever Bruznicki donated a sign to mark the project; the commission said the sign will be erected reading, “Rehabilitation Project - Town of Beacon Falls Rimmon School House.” Instead of the previously planned July 11 dedication, the commission agreed there will be a “commencing of the project” event; details and a start date were not provided.
The commission recorded no further formal votes tied to the rehabilitation at the June 22 meeting. Next administrative steps identified by the commission include finalizing the project timeline and coordinating any required public notifications and site preparations before construction begins.
