Resident presses council on $500,000 Munson House grant and urges nonpartisan appointments
Summary
A resident asked whether the town had received a $500,000 grant for the Munson House, criticized slow progress, and urged that council appointments be based on qualifications rather than politics.
During public participation, Frankie Popolowski asked the council about the status of a $500,000 grant for the Munson House and why work had not progressed despite committee members being assigned. "I'd like to know where that $500,000 grant is. Have we gotten it? Is it sitting in an account someplace, or have we not gotten it yet?" they asked.
Popolowski also criticized what they described as an agenda note indicating a new council appointee would be a Republican and urged the council to “appoint the best person for the job, not making this political.” The comments were presented as requests for follow-up; the transcript does not record an answer or a staff report in response during the meeting.
