Summary

The board authorized the chair to sign a recurring $6,000 emergency-services grant application applied for by Emergency Services Director Rod White; the grant is intended for supplies and search-related needs and is expected to run on the town fiscal year schedule.

At the July 15 meeting the Board of Selectmen approved authorization for the chair to sign an Emergency Services grant application submitted by Emergency Services Director Rod White for $6,000.

Chair explained the grant is a recurring award the town applies for and that the funds are used for supplies and search-related needs. Board members discussed timing against the town fiscal year (assumed July 1–June 30) and clarified that federal funding is awarded to the state, which then passes funds to the town. The chair said the town expects $6,000 from the state for the coming fiscal period.

A motion to allow the chair to sign the application was made, seconded and approved unanimously. The chair said he would bring grant documentation to the board so members could review the award details and funding breakdown.
