Summary

Council voted unanimously to accept a Comfort Plus proposal to install a multi-zone ductless mini-split system at $16,985.96 for the council room and administrator’s office, to be paid from interest earned in the ARPA fund.

Administrator Erin Braband presented a Comfort Plus proposal to replace the two existing, failing HVAC systems in the council room and the administrator’s office. Braband said the existing systems were more than 20 years old and "beyond repair," and that the proposal is for "$16,985.96." Commissioner Chase moved to approve the Comfort Plus proposal and to use interest-earned funds from the ARPA account to pay for it; Commissioner Sullivan seconded the motion and it passed unanimously.

President Newnam asked staff to seek additional companies for any future maintenance contracts. The council recorded the motion and the Clerk’s report showing the expenditure is filed with the town records; the specific ARPA interest balance used was not specified during the meeting.
