The Cohasset Select Board made two appointments related to town planning and school facilities at its May 19 meeting and heard a time-sensitive update on the school solar array procurement.
The Board voted 5-0 to appoint Alicia Svenson to the Cohasset Village Historic District Study Committee to fill a vacancy created when a member moved out of town. The committee had vetted Svenson and recommended her based on her relevant expertise; Select Member Paul Grady moved the appointment and Select Member Will Ashton seconded.
Town Planner Cassandra Thayer briefed the Board on a Request for Proposals issued by the AEC for a solar array at the elementary schools. Thayer said RFP submissions were due May 26, evaluations were expected to be complete by June 2, and interviews were planned for the week of June 8. Member Gregory Watts volunteered to serve as the Select Board representative on the evaluation committee; the Board voted 5-0 to appoint him on a motion by Select Member Grady, seconded by Select Member Ashton.
