Commission authorizes up to $50 for laser level, directs purchase of fidgets for events
Summary
The Fitchburg Disability Commission approved a motion to spend up to $50 on a laser level for measuring slopes, and directed staff to purchase additional fidgets for upcoming events; the approvals were recorded during the open forum.
At its June 10 meeting, the Fitchburg Disability Commission voted to approve two small purchases to support accessibility work and event engagement.
Carolyn Quirk proposed acquiring a laser level to measure slope for accessibility assessments. A motion to allow up to $50 for that purchase was made and seconded and the commission passed the motion.
The group also directed the purchase of additional fidgets to have on hand at outreach events to assist attendees who benefit from sensory supports. The minutes record the direction but do not list a dollar amount for the fidgets purchase.
No formal vendor, procurement timeline, or implementation department was recorded in the minutes. The commission’s recorded action was limited to authorizing the modest equipment purchase and instructing staff to obtain additional fidgets for events.
