Select Board amends procurement policy to preserve federal funding eligibility
Summary
Members approved adding a new section to the town procurement policy to meet state and federal (FEMA-related) requirements, intended to keep the town eligible for future federal and state funds.
A board member explained the procurement-policy amendment is driven by requirements tied to FEMA and other federal funding: "to be eligible to receive future federal funds or state funds, we have to add this section to our procurement policy." The board moved, seconded and approved adding the written section designed to meet those requirements.
The amendment as discussed was described by a member as a largely written addition to the policy to meet eligibility criteria; the transcript does not include the full text of the added section or implementation dates. The board approved the amendment by voice vote and directed staff to incorporate the required language into the procurement policy.
