West Stockbridge to pursue Seasonal Communities grant; joint meeting planned with regional planners
Summary
Select Board agreed to hold a Zoom joint meeting with Berkshire Regional Planning, the Planning Board, and the Affordable Housing Trust to develop projects for a Seasonal Communities grant application potentially worth about $80,000; applications are due August 3.
The Select Board agreed to convene a joint Zoom meeting with Brett Roberts of Berkshire Regional Planning, the Planning Board, and the Affordable Housing Trust to develop and select projects for a Seasonal Communities grant application that could yield roughly $80,000 for the town.
Chair Kathleen Keresey said Roberts contacted her about completing the application on the town’s behalf and suggested holding a meeting within two weeks so the Board could vote on included projects and authorize Roberts to submit the application before the August 3 deadline. The Board directed Town Administrator Marie Ryan to notify participants and post the meeting agenda; the meeting will be Zoom-only.
The minutes do not specify which projects will be proposed or how any grant funds would be distributed; Kathleen suggested a joint meeting to develop ideas and a vote to proceed. The Board did not take a final vote to authorize specific projects at this meeting.
