Roxbury committee reviews year-end spending rules, approves minutes, and agrees to limited repairs
Summary
The committee reviewed year-end expenditure deadlines (invoices due June 29), affirmed Selectboard approval limits, approved minutes of June 10 by unanimous vote, and agreed to limited purchases and repair actions including a $6,400 rekey estimate and $1,386 lumber estimate for raised beds.
During committee business at the June 24 meeting, members reviewed the end-of-fiscal-year expenditure timeline and clarified where to submit invoices and how purchasing approvals work.
Members were told any invoices must be submitted to the Town Clerk by June 29. The Selectboard will approve purchased materials up to $5,000; the Selectboard has also indicated it would continue to support the committee if the committee runs over budget, the minutes say.
There was no public comment from the listed public attendee, Nate Donahue. A motion to amend and approve the minutes of June 10, 2026 (fixing a stray word “Facility”) passed unanimously, 6-0-0.
Committee members reported updates on identified spending priorities: Kristen Getler is checking whether the town-contracted paper supplier offers products compatible with school dispensers; Judy Lusk relayed that Lenny provided a guesstimate of about $6,400 to rekey interior locks and will supply a formal quote; Heather Holter shared a lumber estimate of $1,386 to repair raised garden beds (hardware and labor not included), and the group agreed to purchase only the needed lumber to enable volunteer-led repairs; Bob Ketchel is buying materials for interior repairs and will submit invoices to Tammy.
The meeting adjourned at approximately 8:24 p.m.; the committee scheduled its next meeting for July 8, 6–8 p.m. at Roxbury Village School.
