Town hears preliminary school solar proposal; roof repairs pushed to next summer for reimbursement
Summary
First Selectman Bunce said a possible solar project at the school is under preliminary review after a representative from Evolution Energy distributed informational packets; the board also noted the roof project cannot start until next summer to obtain proper reimbursement and grant options are being explored.
First Selectman Bunce told the board he is looking at a possible solar project at the school and that a representative from Evolution Energy handed out packets and gave a brief presentation about the preliminary proposal and suggested safeguards. The discussion was preliminary and no decisions were made; the board noted further analysis and specific verbiage from finance staff will be required before any commitment.
Separately, the building committee briefed the board on a pressing roof issue: the project cannot proceed until next summer if the town is to obtain appropriate reimbursement, and the board said it will explore grant options. The board did not vote on either project during the meeting; both were presented for planning and follow-up in workshops.
