Summary

Town leaders reported state approval of a nonemergency school grant with a 69.64% match; the building committee meets to begin project planning and the town must select a project manager and go to bid within a two-year start window.

First Selectman Joe Bellavance told the board that the state approved a nonemergency school grant that requires a 69.64% match. He said the building committee meets the following day, the town must obtain a project manager, go out to bid and has two years to begin the project.

Bellavance framed the update as a procedural next step: securing a project manager and moving through the public bidding process. The board did not take formal action beyond acknowledging the grant approval and scheduling building-committee work.
